I feel like Eleanor is going to figure out that something is weird and invalidate the whole experiment by realizing that she was resurrected for some weird purpose.

I just wonder if that happens in the finale or like the next episode.

Oh yeah, definitely that. She pulled a thoughtful face that wasn't really called attention to when she heard the name 'Charles Brainman' that makes me think she's going to start realising soon that something is up.

I love how Simone's actress can't cover up that she's clearly from London. Should've just let her use her real accent to be honest. Do like that they've brought in a new character in the 3rd season and she's instantly great, though.

Really? I�m from London and I couldn�t have told you that.

My favorite part is that she left Taylor Swift's number in there.

And Taika Waititi! By all accounts he is the best of people, so I�d want to keep his number too.

I suddenly had the thought that Eleanor might sleep with Jason this season, as they share that trashbag vibe, and Chidi�s got his own thing going on with Simone. Maybe Jason will get a job as a mailman or something.

The best way to drag them down would be to be a fun friend who tells them "no you don't need to change you're all already perfect as you are now who wants some cocaine."

Josie and the Pussycats is a sorely underrated movie imho that way too many people took at face value when it came out.

I do wonder if the good place is as debauched as the bad place. Once people get into the good place, the accountants stop tallying points, so living there is basically consequence free. Eternal life with everything you could want and no consequences? Yeah, that's going to end well...

Yeah this is an obvious angle the show is going to bring up. We've seen folks get better in the Bad Place so why can't Good Place earners end up turning into horrible people?

"Janet! I've been curious, what does human flesh taste like?"

EDIT: I just had a mental picture of a flipped version of the scene in the first episode where Janet plays a clip from the Bad Place, but instead it's from the Good Place and it just looks like the Event Horizon log.

We know there definitely is a good place and that it's staffed, because Michael stole Janet from a Janet warehouse, inferring the existence of others.

How about a gif instead?

That was the icing on a fantastic episode. Eleanor didn�t call him �surprisingly jacked� for nothing. I hope Chidi getting sprayed with liquids becomes a regular thing because it�s hilarious every time. Blood last season, sprinkler water this time.

_{And to lower the tone even more, the water revealed there�s a lot going on on his lower half too.}

This makes some sense. Let's also not forget that in his introduction Shawn was presented as a literally neutral character who would retreat if anyone became emotional around him.

how expensive would Stephen Merchant be to come on with some regularity? Given that his department is the one where the rules are made, i.e. how many points a given action costs, I'd expect the Accountants to feature more prominently going forward, but actor availability and $ would probably make that difficult-ish?

Probably far cheaper than Ted Danson, and I'm sure he'd be quite willing.

On the subject of episode lengths, they've mentioned on the podcast they have different length versions of episodes. On Netflix are we getting the longest ones?

Sometimes, apparently. Also, the Blu-rays may have different extended cuts from the ones on NBC's own site. No-one seems to be able to pin down exactly what different versions exist for what episodes, or collate them in one place.

It's 'Clue' for McKean for me. He's consistently great. Also, I feel like with the way the show races through storylines, he could effectively only be around like 2-3 episodes before they change it all up again.
