The Good Place on NBC

I don't really get what this show is about anymore but some good lols.

Funniest episode of the season, settling into its rhythm.

Way more excited than I should have been to see actual Australian currency?

The Jeremy Bearimy explanation, especially for the dot above the i, was very Douglas Adams

This show is still great. You guys are bonkers. After the nihilism talk I asked my spouse (astronomer) why aren't all astronomers nihilists.

Guys you do realise that it's like, 99% certain that this isn't meant to be real Australia, right?

if Mike Schur hadn't said it was absolutely positively definitely meant to be, I'd still be assuming they're setting up clues

another argument against "it's on purpose": this week Trent O'Donnell directed and suddenly the accents were all fine

The food in the supermarket was pretty much correct too...

what was the joke with the superboard two episodes ago? i didn't really get it. was it setup for future future-tech jokes?

are you insane

the entire Chidi plot was about him mixing Peeps in with tinned chilli

I thought the entire plot was about his workout regiment.

He's pretty ripped

I thought it was the tag to the bit in the episode where Michael and Janet were meddling, and he thought that if they had better computers they would make faster progress (or something).

Third ep featured Ken Garoo and Baroness von Thurn und Taxis.

aha. i see it now.

are you insane
That's beside the point.

I was talking more about the Twisties, Cheezels and Milo on the shelf, and the brand of chili is commonly found here, but you got me with the Peeps. I thought they were jelly babies or something.

and cans of Stagg chili everywhere

but you got me with the Peeps.

They said on the podcast that they rationalized the peeps by assuming every grocery store has an "international" section.

they absolutely don't tho

I've been seeing Americans talk about Peeps online for two decades and still don't understand what they are

Wow, you're serious. Even when they (Amram and Kissack) were talking about grocery store "international" sections, they acknowledged the likelihood of any such section including Peeps to be highly unlikely, but they said fuck it because Peeps are funny.

btw, the companion podcast for this show is consistently great: https://art19.com/shows/the-good-place-the-podcast

Tbh, I don't know what Peeps are and figured they might be Australian.

OK, apparently they have them here. I just don't buy enough candy.

how does this show keep getting better

I'm on a one day delay watching these, and every week I get so jealous.

old-timey strongman onesie

jason & pillboy’s goodbye handshake choreo was outstanding & hilar

the bit where eleanor told simone “i love your accent” and then said “i don’t have an accent” reminded me of when i was in america

yes i have had that same convo with many ppl here

weren't you guys saying her aussie accent was lacking?

we were

"I need to go do a robbery, um, I mean, I'm sick."

Yes, but also the reactions from Michael and Tahani as it happened. This was a very good episode. First part of the season was the first stretch where it seemed as if they didn't know what to do, but the last two episodes has been back up to standards.

how is this show so good

lol (but also v triggered by defacing of library book even if pencil)

Just checked this out from my university's library, someone did it in pencil so I believe it's ethical. @nbcthegoodplace @dubjackharper @IMKristenBell pic.twitter.com/7iErxb20iV

jason's dad was amazing

Everyone on this show is so, so good.

Eleanor’s expression when she finds out her mom is still alive a++

https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2018/oct/28/the-good-places-australian-accents-are-bad-but-maybe-thats-the-joke

That’s the joke with Ted Danson and his character’s unconsciously terrible attempt at an Australian accent. Except that it’s a joke which would be funnier if it didn’t sound to Australian ears kind of like Simone.

Your mother is a very confident and selfish lover

That was a sweet episode.
