I'm replying 8 of your earth years later, just to point out that he specifically says "50,000 of your earth years"

Perhaps it was Gertie.

It could star literally anyone and be wonderful

Censoring words like "ash hole" could almost pass as meta-humor on the part of the censorship board…

Any couple seeming "official" will draw criticism of one sort or another, and this pairing has the Soulmate Stamp of Approval on it.

Yes! It's like pulling off "The detective was the killer all along."

Good assistance from the camera there too. A very gif-worthy moment

I think part of the idea is that the characters behaved in ways the demons didn't expect, often rising above themselves. For example, if Eleanor had been eternally irredeemable, Chidi would constantly be exasperated and Eleanor always feeling guilty. If Jason were sufficiently antisocial and/or afraid of being caught,

Malicious, no, but he is callous. You can be dumb and still care when someone seems hurt, but Jason is somebody whose reaction to Eleanor lamenting she'll be tormented for eternity is basically "Whoopee! I"m spared!" At heart he's almost as bad as Eleanor was on Earth, just with adorable expressions that make him seem

The two dudes annoyingly obsessed with cleaning trash. The woman who compared flying to "fifty million orgasms". They weren't just tormenting Janet incidentally, was was their actual job.

Thanks for transcribing the magazine title, I didn't catch it.

I don't think she expressed it as a hope, just as a possibility. But you're right, it was brilliant foreshadowing.

Heh. In the discussion here after the episode that focuses on Chidi's indecisiveness, someone argued that the Good Place (under the original "Eleanor and Jason were mistakes" assumption) would be a paradise for him because of the lack of decision-making — even his soulmate was chosen for him.

I've never seen that episode, but I, too, want to see this happen.

That would be surprisingly resourceful for her…

(I think that was the joke)

If that last one happened, I hope they wouldn't just play it as her being naive, but as her genuinely wanting to be married to more people. (Maybe she would wed both partners in a soulmate pair, so neither is left alone).

Laughed at: "He's a football player." / "I don't care what his hobbies are." I like to interpret it to mean Holt is genuinely unaware that football is played professionally (though I'm sure there's a previous episode that conflicts with).

Infra-red goggles, actually. She's ovulating

I lost it at "Twas a cat."
