Joyce, Jonathan, and Mike trying to get through to Will while telling heartfelt stories from the past wasn’t only moving, but was such narrative perfection in filling in backstory that give these characters so much depth. Byers’ Castle origin story? Yes please!!

Whatever your thoughts on this show, I really think it does right by its characters. A lesser or more cynical show would have made a character like Bob a profound dunce or a coward in over his head, but he gets his chance to prove himself as something more than a symbol of Joyce’s unobtainable sense of normalcy. Even…

I’d bet Jeff Goldblum would be a great roommate. He’s the type of guy who would buy a large pizza with every intention of sharing half of it with you. When he buys milk, he’s like, “Hey man, drink as much as you want. Just make sure I have some for my morning coffee.” He’s the kinda guy who always washes the dishes…

“Oh, yeah, like the guy in the five thousand dollar suit is gonna construct a competent lineup. Koeman!”

A few years ago, someone applied to manage Middlesbrough FC on the strength of his Football Manager stats and his experience coaching a local u-11 team... and received a personal reply from the club’s chairman:

#TeamDiagonal

WTF, no opinion on diagonal staples? So much better, and less chance of tearing.

When NPR was recently talking about The various hurricanes that have hit the US, my 4 year old was getting all excited because “Harry Kane is coming!!!!”

The following “What???” from Chidi made it for me - the same intonation of exasperated confusion from the episode where both Eleanor and Tahani dumped him while Jason was marrying Janet

Or at the very least she likes playing his love interest.

I really hope Vicky gets more screentime. She is so funny. Her desire to be involved in Chidi’s torture was so great.

I like the interpretation that Alan Sepinwall had where he pointed out that most of these people demons pretending to be good place inhabitants are normally torturing people the old way and are not that good at / used to the improv stuff. They did well the first time around but clearly they aren’t ready to deal with…

For real. I just did a re-watch of the first season to prepare for this and the almond milk joke landed better for me this time and then to bring it back as his main reason for why he might not be in the good place really killed me. Such a good callback. The way Chidi reacted before revealing that was great because I…

The follow up to the Yogurt line made me laugh

I cackled with glee at Chidi going back to the almond milk as the cause of his eternal damnation.

So glad to have TGP back on my screen! Ted Danson (and his bowties) continue to be a delight. Tahani’s uncomfortableness with everything was wonderful I was laughing at the way Jameela Jamil delivered every line, she is so good. Once again TGP reminding me how much I am Chidi.

While everyone’s tortures were interesting - except Eleanor’s, who’s uckily saddled with a meathead who goes to the gym at the drop of a shirt - Tahani’s made me cackle with glee. Short soul mate? Small house? Discovering why Crocs have holes? Absolute perfection. I could see a whole episode of her trying to deal with…

I think that sounds exactly right. They’re not saying shut it down now or else. They’re letting them finish their planned run and have clearly extended the invitation to do it again if they go through the proper channels. I see nothing wrong with those involved in the show being compensated for the use of their IP and…
