This makes sense. The moment we learned the truth about the “Good Place,” I knew the point system had to be broken. Tahani did so many wonderful things. Sure it was in competition with her sister but wow did she ever help people. And sure Chidi was annoying AF but who deserves to burn in hell for having severe anxiety? I was expecting the point system to be hacked or something.

Also Michael mentions in The Trolly Problem that Victor Hugo is in The Bad Place because he’s French and that all French people go to The Bad Place that was my first tip off

And tahani did everything to make herself look good. She didn’t actually care about the people she was helping

[@snehasowmy7226]

Tman4312 from what I understand, that shouldn’t matter right? The point total takes into account how the actions affect others. Her motivations may not have been right but her entire career she objectively helped others, which put a lot of good into the universe. Shouldn’t she still have gotten into the good place?

Technically it wasn't flawed the world just became to complex for humans to understand all the unintended consequences of their actions since the accounts, demons and, angels weren't human they couldn't understand that the point system was flawed but notice that when they change the afterlife so that every day people could better themselves and earn more points to get into the good place they didn't actually change the point system it's still same they just removed life's complexity.

[@sophiam2095]

Mindy helped far more people with her money than Tubman did with her heroism. I'm not sure Shur is commenting on it, but many critics have said the problem with ethics is it's a LOT easier to practice any form of ethics when you have money and no pressing obligations. If Elanor had been a single mother, this entire season could never have happened.

[@thomasbraithwaite1381]

It's never directly stated but one detail that's implied several times throughout the show and that I really like is the fact that the language and specifically the writing system of the eternal beings seems to far more informationally dense and efficient than ours. The entirety of a human's life can be fit into a single file with standard font size, but then when that file is translated to something a human can read it has to be spread out into so many pages that a single trip to Wendy's takes up an entire box. Similarly, the main feed in this scene can convey all the actions of every human on earth simultaneously through a not particularly fast text crawl on a single screen. It's just such a cool detail with fascinating implications in this series' excellent worldbuilding.

[@josephwodarczyk977]

That makes so much sense, I love this. Related: pretty much all languages are limited by what the human brain can handle. If a word or idea is too complicated, society stops talking about it. So it makes a lot of sense that the angels and demons would have a crazy dense and complicated language.

I'm pretty sure the people who run the good place is behind this problem with the point system. The Accountant is pretty positive that hacking is impossible but if the good place just changed the standards of what they would allow in to be impossible then that could be a problem. This does bring up the interesting problem of Mindy Sinclair though.

[@JoseMendoza-JAM]

What do you mean about Mindy? Explain a bit

[@elloz6100]

Jose Mendoza From the sounds of it, Mindy was the closest person we know of to getting into the Good Place in recent centuries. I dont know if Tony9804 is thinking of the same problem as I am but how come Mindy wasn't just placed into the Bad Place if the system was rigged in the first place? Is it because the system wasn't rigged with Mindy's unique circumstance? Or is she actually in the Bad Place given that the train doesn't even connect to the Good Place like the Bad Place does.

[@Rozzdogs]

I agree with the others that it's the good place doing the hacking and not the bad place, though I think it's a step beyond that. what if the reason no-one's gotten into the good place is because it turned out that a lot of the people getting into the good place back then were turning bad after they got in? like, after they got in and realized that they no longer had any obligation to be good some of them (not all of them mind you) decided that they basically start doing whatever the hell they wanted, and no one could stop them due to the rule that you can't change someone's results after they're dead. as a result of this, the good place people conspired, possibly with the help of the bad place, to rig the point system so that almost no-one could get unless they were absolutely, unquestionably good. it's a bit of a stretch, but I think it's plausible. BTW, I don't think this is related but just in case: approximately 512 years ago, Leonardo Da Vinci put the finishing touches to the Mona Lisa.

Definitely feel that people that were being good just to get into the good place aren't as good people as those who are good for the sake of it.

Also I disagree about the fact that they just keep adding negative points to good deeds because of corporate greed. And if the same principle was applied people who taught and raised good people they should receive good points for all the good actions done by those influenced by them to do good deed like an investment. Finally doing good deeds and while not having the right reason is not good but should still be rewarded regardless since it's still a good deed instead maybe like they would only receive one tenth of the supposed points.

That is the first time I've heard sugarland Tx be shouted out on TV lmao

[@00bikeboy]

More Merchant please.

Spoilers I guess...but I'm half a decade late lol. Great binge and I'm already planning a Christmas time re-watch since I want to try to absorb more of the philosophy lessons (binge this show was a blessing and curse since the philosophy discussions didn't fully set in). Now that I more or less know how it ends, I want to take a closer look at the shows themes vs chasing the story. I think the most eye opening part about the show was their perception and explanation on "eternity". What all of the immortal "demons" and "angels" seemed to fail to understand about the afterlife was how miserable eternity really is. They didn't feel like it was miserable (I guess the majority of infinite characters...poor Matt and Glenn) but without a sense of purpose, people get bored quickly and the longer we live, the more memories we forget and the faster time passes. Many of us yearn for the hope that heaven or the afterlife is a eternal happiness and in some ways, they created a reincarnation/soul door (I think what happens is that people who pass through the door become the essence of their own conscience and they are "reincarnated" into other humans in an attempt to improve humankind over time. Ironically, this is a similar belief that I've felt for a very long time. Ive felt like people who seem so wise at a young age or mature beyond their years etc are in some ways people who have had thousands of reincarnations/reboots. Basically what Janet/Derek represent and they get better over time. But because our current global birth rates are triple the annual death rate, there is a mix of reincarnated people and "new essences". I believe those who have new essences are the people in our lives with the most energy, the bubbly personalities and charisma. They're the people we look at as being a kid at heart no matter their age. And why is this? Its because life is exciting for them...they aren't a ball of energy or whatever anymore. Idk, obviously we have no idea, but I like the thought exercise to answer what we really are and how a collection of particles, molecules and atoms can collaesce into perceived consciousness at the macro scale.

I WAS WONDERING WHY HE WOULD MAKE SUCH A PERFECT WHEATLEY IF BLUE SKY EVER WAS MADE INTO A MOVIE I AM SO DUMB

[@EstrellaCorreasTebar]

I´m doing an university work and I want to use this scene, do you guys know from which chapter and season is this scene?? Thanks a lot :3

[@khairyssyanurassylla6953]

[@lucaskennington9101]

Stephen Merchant... great!

[@ultraprincesskenny6790]

I'm closing my eyes and imagining it's Wheatley

[@justjaxie]

All I hear is Wheatley

[@agenttheater5]

I was wondering if we'd ever find out about Doug Forcett - surely guessing the afterlife nearly completely perfectly is worth a couple of good points?

[@nicolasneal204]

Actually he was only 92% correct he probably could have gotten lots of points if he created an entire religion based on what he learned and taught people to live like he was

[@Matt561]

Ted Danson is tall, Steven Merchant is a giant

[@_fatered_]

Stephen Merchant plays Wheatley from Portal 2, which means any character he plays is a really good one

[@Skenderbeuismyhero]

Sugarland Texas, that's pretty random but I could see someone from there doing that with spam.

[@littlebigb5370]

What is the score for, say, stuffing A.I. sentience into a potato and punching said potato and a mute down an elevator shaft?

[@Jrmy_Makaveys]

I want to see the season 4!

[@Thrifty032781]

My father sent his to me because it had the same voice actor as Wheatley from Portal 2, and that he could only see Wheatley! Ahahaha!

[@theenglishmajor1198]

The whole time I herd him speak I kept seeing Wheatley.

[@HuyWin]

Sugarland Texas woot!!!! ❤️

[@stephanielarson6686]

When your home town is only ever mentioned on TV is with a guy with an eggplant *sigh*

[@KatchRocketman]

Now I'm tempted to hollow out an eggplant and fill it with hot sauce and nickels, just to see what all the fuss is about.

[@bro5756]

[@dinosaurwithatophat2343]
