Little known Constitutional fact: if you can get the President to promise something at the Corespondent’s Dinner, he has to do it. It’s why Drumpfy didn’t show up to the last one.

For the life of me I will never get “i like _ college team but could never get into that school”. Apropos of this list

Texas Edition:

I said to my wife (who is from Florida) that his acting is great because it’s not hard to play an idiot, but to play a massive idiot so endearingly takes serious skills.

I know. This show is amazing. High-concept sitcoms never work. They either burn out in six episodes or shove the concept to the side and become a generic workplace or hangout show. But this? Is an incredibly high concept AND is engaged in pretty elaborate world-building AND has real characters AND is funny. I have to…

I mean. None of them are actually soulmates so while I hear you, I think the idea is that any soulmate pairing is meant to be torture.

Wasn’t the train serving Manhattan last season? Someone on the writing staff really hates clam chowder

I really enjoyed Michael explaining to Jason that they are in the bad place like it didn’t really matter - then it turning out to be not because he was going to do a reset, rather because he knew Jason totally wouldn’t get it.

Tahini, still under the impression that she’s in The Good Place, did not have to worry about being sent to the Bad Place at that point last year. She would not be caught dead in a Medium place.

They write like they never know when the show will be cancelled so they better get in all their ideas now.

She wasn’t wrong either time, though.

I recall thinking that was a logical place for them to end up by the end of the year. That we’re already there is pretty amazing.

The golden rule in The Good Place writers’ room seems to be “Never put off until next episode, that which you can do this episode.”

I’m a little hesitant about throwing away a season’s worth of character development. I really enjoyed the ways the main 4 interacted/grew.

I think it was one of the comments on this site that predicted that Michael would team up with the four at the end of this season. Who knew Mike Schur and the gang blew this show up so early in the season. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

I assume he’s still called Glenn because I don’t want to learn a bunch of new names, and because I don’t want to call Gunner the biting guy anything other than Gunner.

Like one of Pawnee’s town halls, except the demons aren’t actively working against their own self-interests, unlike the Pawnee residents.

I think the point is that Michael doesn’t know better. He wants to inflict them with as much torture as possible but doesn’t realize that overload will make them quickly realize that things in the Good Place are not very good. Michael is an ambitions failure who is way too self assured.
