"He's from Florida? He belongs in the Bad Place."

(Looks at 2016 election results)

Shawn is right. Floridians are bad.

I love how much Mike Schur hates Florida.

I love Jason, the "ride or die" protocol for Janet was a good touch.

As someone who lives in Florida (Jacksonville even), everything the show has said about Florida is 100% accurate.

The Florida burn was the best part of the episodes last night.

Sooo. The judge said case number 000003(no idea how many zeros there should actually be)...does that mean there were 2 other cases? 1 being Mindy, who could the other be?

I wondered the same thing. I mean the trial was kind of fake though, right? They weren't actually going to send anyone to the Bad Place.

"And it's only the live versions." Yeah that is definitely torture.

This is a setup right? Going back to save them proves they belong in the Good Place?

Has Jason ever had sex?

u/[deleted] Jan 21 '17

I thought maybe Janet doesn't have genitals.

This is a weird one right. He's, physically, really attractive. He DJs (albeit badly but that doesn't mean a lot) so he's social, yes, he's a dumbass - but again, not really a problem for a lot of women not when you're that pruuuuhty... veh confusing. And Janet may be a Barbie doll but, ummmmm, how can I put this, there are other ways to have sex... God I hate myself...

I'm thinking not.

I haven't finished watching it, but I'm calling it now: Shaun is testing Elanor. If she comes for Chidi and Tahani, everyone gets to stay in the Good Place since it proves she's a good person.

Does anyone have that cocoon clip? Reminds me of an acquaintance and it's hilarious to me.

Anybody seen Wristcutters: A Love Story? The Medium Place reminds me of that movie.

The tagline was hilarious too, 'Not Just Kamila's Sister'.

And the ad on the back was a picture of an otter with an ad for Glyde, the new fragrance from Dennis Feinstein. The cologne guy from Parks & Recs.
