I just want to say that Kirby Howell-Baptiste (Simone) did an amazing job portraying Eleanor In Virtual Simone's Body, and then Eleanor Pretending To Be Janet In Virtual Simone's Body. The bit went by very quickly but she channeled Eleanor perfectly.

Yeah that was crazy good. You could literally believe it was Eleanor telepathically controlling her, sublime acting.

I think the Good Place is just stringent enough that you need to have good intentions paired with good deeds, which is why both Chidi and Tahani are damned without contradiction. It's not that one or the other is more important, just that you need a combination of both.

I've seen Cheers, but as someone who's sub-30 I saw a lot more Becker.

Becker had some good episodes. There's one where Reggie sets Jake up on a date, and it turns out it's with a blind woman, and Jake is peeved that just because he's blind Reggie assumed he would want to date other blind people - he wants to be with someone who can see, because being blind is stressful enough without having to look out for another blind person too. Plus, he asks her like, "would you have set up a seeing friend with a blind person without telling them she was blind?" and she's forced to admit she wouldn't have. That stuck with me. Some surprisingly complex takes in that show.
