Fun fact; Hitler is in the good place.

... It was a technicality.

Flashback:

Architect: "man this Hitler dude is so awful, whoever kills him goes to the good place, no questions asked."

Sounds like a rule that would end up landing Hitler in the Medium Place with Mindy and Derek.

Was this an actual scene in the show?

[–] Phen@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 5 days ago

In my head this scene was my own idea so unless I completely forgot about it (which would not surprise me) it wasn't

Who is that? She looks like that crazy jewish chick that was following Trump around for a while lol.

Janet. She's a divine construct who acts as an informational assistant and database for the afterlife.

This show is one of my favorites, some high level giggles and memorable moments.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 14 points 5 days ago (2 children)

That show ended at the perfect time. Didn't drag it out, and left you wanting more. The opposite of the walking dead.

The show was the real zombie all along.

[–] Moneo@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I felt like it dragged a lot in seasons 3/4 but the ending was fantastic.

The guy who played Pillboi is in everything. And he'll always be Pillboi to me.

I like to think of Chidi's wave line when I'm feeling down. We're all just riding that wave until we're back to being part of the ocean.

Picture a wave. In the ocean. You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight refracts when it passes through. And it's there. And you can see it, you know what it is. It's a wave.

And then it crashes in the shore and it's gone. But the water is still there. The wave was just a different way for the water to be, for a little while. You know it's one conception of death for Buddhists: the wave returns to the ocean, where it came from and where it's supposed to be.

This is why The Good Place is my comfort show. Chidi’s monologue both brakes me and puts me back together. Every moment in the finale is a work of art but that scene on the couch, there just aren’t words.

Every time someone I know passes I watch that whole episode and it helps me find peace.

It's been a very difficult year for me mentally and I'm really glad I finally started watching this show. It's had an impact I wasn't expecting.
