ABOUT THE GOOD PLACE
From creator Michael Schur (“Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” “Parks and Recreation” and “Master of None”) comes a unique comedy about what makes a good person. The show follows Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell, “House of Lies,” “Veronica Mars”), an ordinary woman who enters the afterlife, and thanks to some kind of error, is sent to the Good Place instead of the Bad Place (which is definitely where she belongs). While hiding in plain sight from Good Place Architect Michael (Ted Danson - “Cheers,” “CSI” - in an Emmy Award-nominated performance), she’s determined to shed her old way of living and earn her spot.

i love how chidi and eleanor represent conscience and will respectively. one won't work without the other
Excellent point.
And that’s why Chidi and Eleanor are a great couple
brilliant underrated comment
I never though of it that way. Nice!
Wow. I never thought of it
Chidi's epic existential crisis in Season 3 is the best thing ever.
What’s his existential crisis? Oh wait, is it when he saw the time knife?
Oh wait nvm yes that was the best thing ever
When chidi ate chili
Yeah thanks
YOU PUT THE PEEPS IN THE CHILI POT 😂
Season 2: “I wish we met the way people normally meet, by you knocking on my door.”
Season 3: _Knock knock_
Noice
I just noticed that justnow
Ooooooh damnnnnnnn
“The end. Just kidding” basically sums up the entire show
That's brilliant!! So true!! Here I was thinking that the narrator's comment was "basic", and you just went and elevated tremendously. Holy forking shirtballs
Kalina Poydovska everyone dies. The end, no just kidding. They find out they are in the bad place. The end, no just kidding. The judge agrees to send them back to earth. The end, no just kidding. They start up a new neighborhood experiment the End, no just kidding
Notice how chidi says he wishes they met by her knocking in his office door for help with philosophy then in season 3 she knocks on his office door asking for help with philosophy
fOrEsHaDoWiNg
Chidi is great at knowing all about the different ideas about ethics, he just needs help deciding which versions of ethics to actually apply.
Feels like my philosophy exam. XD
I am pretty sure it's ethnics
@@kanakvarma6580 no
Thanks for making me cry all over again over Chidi's sacrifice and his and Eleanor's last moments together before his reboot. This show is forking good.
Just wait until you see their final moments in season 4...
One of the best shows I’ve ever seen
only one of the best?
Brian Edner well basically the best
My favorite character. I can’t believe William Jackson Harper hasn’t won any awards yet
They deserve a cast Emmy, plus 3 best repertorial actor emmys
he is nominated for an emmy, hope he wins
S p o i l e r
I loved how he punched Brent for being a deckhead
Same lol it was hilarious
I think it's gonna make Simone want him more than ever, which is gonna torture Eleanor, which was the Bad Place's plan all along.
Brent used profanity in the good place!
Even Michael can’t do that!!
He deserved nothing less.
@@OvSpP Wait, if Brent can use profanity, does that mean... he's a demon too?
gamekidg7 me and my fellow good place stans we’re sure speculating about it.
sooo basically confirmed that they are actual soulmates
The way her voice cracks when she says, "Bye, Chidi" at 8:28 will **always** crush my soul
And the look on her face afterwards... Such a great actor!
_~You put the peeps in the chili and you mix it all up~_
I want to know where he got peeps in Australia. I had to google what the fork peeps were while watching that ep
You put the lime in the coconut and mix it all up
From the Nihlson Smielson album....THE 70'S, MAN.
My favorite line: "a mensch, not a bench"
I've often felt I was a mensch.
Can we talk about how triggering it was to see Chidi, everyone's favourite intelligent, adorkable geek, lose it and make chilli! Ahffhsjaksc
Actually... it just made me wonder what peeps and m&ms taste like in chilli...???
At first, my crush on Eleanor blinded me to the other 5 characters. After 4 seasons, my fav character is Chidi, and I have a new respect for Ted's acting.
Or as Eleanor says, "Chidi Annakendrick"...
As an anxious and indecisive overthinker, Chidi is an entire mood.
There is a plot hole in the beginning where chidi says “I’m actually speaking French everything you say here is automatically translated into your native language” but actually when they do the experiment in season 2 and 3 where they’re on earth alive he speaks fluently in English without an accent or is he just really good at language is it a plot hole or am I just being stupid
ColonelMiniPenguin No I noticed that to. He is certainly smart enough to be fluent in both languages but they never explain it.
it's not a plot hole, his native language is French but he also can speak English and multiple other languages too. they mention that 1 or 2 times in the show, I think.
It is a little confusing as childhood flashbacks are all in English, and not in French.
i think he can speak both languages fluently, but he would rather choose to speak french. i think that’s why he speaks french in “the good place”, but decides to speak english on earth, in australia, so people can understand what he’s saying. i’m not sure though, that’s my guess💘🤷♀️
I noticed that too. It’s like a plot hole they didn’t know how to fix, but they tried. Yes, Chidi’s native language is French, and clearly he preferred it in season 1, but in season 3 he tells Eleanor that he went to school in America and that’s why he’s fluent in English, but all the flashbacks of his childhood schooling are in Africa (though they speak English and only his teacher has an accent).
chidi and eleanor are so different, yet so perfect for each other. just like jake and amy ❤
Chidi is the best character ever❤️
"I don't think I'll ever be the type of person who just acts. I can't just open a door and walk through without knowing what's on the other side. Even with eternity to try, I just don't think that can happen."
Chidi to Jason Season 1.
BUT THEN HE WALKS THROUGH THE DOOR WITHOUT EVEN SITTING ON THE BENCH IN THE FINALEEEE
"I usually panic, but I'm happy to freak" mood
the people are fake but their pain is real
This show taught me so forking much!
My favorite character is Chidi. Or is it Jason? *moan* I have a stomach ache!
This reminds me of the time I was in a 60 person dance crew
I think Jason the best
Oh dip what are numbers?
Ok, usually it would infuriate me to have a character/person around that dumb... but I adore Jason. I don't think he's actually dumb, as much as innocent. I mean it's like hurling a molotov cocktail does in fact solve one problem it just means he immediately has another problem. So he's not wrong... eventhough he's not exactly right either. So like he's not smart, but not exactly dumb... it's more like he's just REALLY different in the brain. I kind of want to know what those MIR scan results showed.
@@VixeyTeh low intelligence stat, high wisdom
5:35 wait a minute. Thats how they met tho in the rechance life thing....
oh i didnt notice that-
Neither did I!! Omgosh that’s a wonderful circle back 💜
I think Chidi and Jason really deserved to be in the good place. Although he is undecisive, his intentions are still as good as it gets, and is ready to help anyone.
Jason has a pure heart, he's just dumb
Intent matters, but so does impact. Chidi had positive intent but negative impact, and Jason had no intent but negative impact.
Such a beautiful character and relationship.
Chidi is a great character, I think they dropped the ball on their relationship so far in season 4.
"Some memories you might have forgotten" broke me
Such a great character. I love Chidi and the actor William Jackson Harper that brought him to life.
Now, I finally understand why they had the scene where the boy (Chidi) taught his parents and debated why they shouldn't have a divorce. Other than the parallels of being a professor in university in his adult life, it's that he CONSTANTLY had to choose for OTHERS (e.g. his parents).
He had to choose for his parents, that they shouldn't have to opt for divorce. Bearing in mind, the various consequences for both sides.
Until when he is an adult, he hurt everyone with his "rigidity and indecisiveness". He with Simone, he with his friend who was the groom, he with himself over blueberries, he on the couch in Simone's office (both sides are the same, he chose to sat in the middle), and here, in choosing two hats which are same but in different colours.)
He had to constantly choose for others, without asking HIMSELF what he wanted. Because all his life he was doing in this way. How? How then would he know, what his choices are and what he wanted?
Even if they are the personality, they choose for others, is it the best thing for them? If you leave your kids to decide the state of the marriage, be your goddamn messenger, how is this going yo affect the kids and when they grow up. Similarly to Tahani, to Eleanor and to Jason.
I loved when young, indecisive Chidi "filibustered recess." 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm going to miss Chidi and Janet most of all.
Myvown personal he'll is that this show made me attempt to watch Veronica Mars!!!!
After the last episode I love his indecisive soul even more...☺
Chidi is the reverse stereo type by being the black savior to the white character.
cat lover Chidi is the one that change them though.
@@idontevenhaveapla7224
He's still the savior, and the voice of reason. That's rare
Torchy Brown I don’t think this works that way. The plot would have the be different.
Plus we already have a magical person and her name is Janet.
Torchy Brown so you basically are ruining my comment? Yes?
Btw, the magical Janet was a joke. One you obviously didn’t get.
Torchy Brown ok, now I kinda see your point given how season 3 ended, WHICH actually made Elenor sadder from his sacrifice than him. But I get it.
*And before you think this, I’m not trying to minimize what you think, I’m just trying to understand it*
So in your mind, what exactly would fix this for you? What would have to change? Ultimately your answer might make the media landscape better.
Or are you saying it’s fine, but just acknowledging the past so people don’t forget and can learn from their mistakes?
5:31 i just realized that chidi said how normal people meet is knocking on his office door asking for help with philosophy, and that’s exactly what eleanor did when they got on earth again. (6:50)
i love chidi so much❤️
There is no “answers”. But Eleanor is the answer.
chidi reminds me of myself
Oh I love me some The Good Place. i'm hooked.
The dislikes are Shawn and his demons
And all the bad Janet's
The dislikes are all the demons in the bad places + bad Janets
Neptune Stone Bad Janet is just here for the double ads.
Bad Janet is good now all of them you cnat stop them
oooohhhh, that's what shes doing on her phone all the time.
Chidi is my favourite character ❤️
I'M FORKING CRYING
Now I have to watch this show
Please do! You must start at season 1, episode 1. Seasons 1,2,3 on Netflix. Season 4 on Hulu. Last 4 episodes of the series to air on NBC in January 2020, and presumably on Hulu after they air on TV.
You put the peeps in the chili and it makes it tastes.....bad...
In this show, saying 'throws a FORK in the garbage disposal' takes on a whole different meaning...
I laugh every time the a.c. kills Chidi. Am I evil? Lol
Chidi is life goals.
Chidi is truly the best
I still can’t unsee the suspenders and fedoras from the electric company reboot
I WANT THE NEW SEASON ON NETFLIX UGHHH
I CANT WATCH ITTTT
Just search it online. I watch it on 123movies
It’s on Hulu as well. They upload new episodes each week.
Chidi my love 💜
Peeps in the CHILI!!!!!
In a few years I may forget his full name is Chidi Anagonye, but won't forget Chidi Anna Kendrick
Even at the beginning I really don't think that Chidi deserved to be in the bad place, the person he damaged most was himself, and no one can feel his pain
I love Janet ❤️❤️
Not a girl
Again - not a girl
0:27 Chidi... I think you got your answer!
XD
But seriously TRAGIC
My friends started calling me anagonye sometime ago, they told me about him, I even wear glasses like that, I'm kinda like him yeah
Chidi is surprisingly well built for an ethics professor
Soulmates 💓
It will never not get to me that Chidi changed Eleanor simply by agreeing to help her. He completely subverted her entire worldview by refusing to abandon her despite his countless issues. She asked him for help and in every single reboot he agreed to help her and never refused; and learning that steels Eleanor's resolve for everything that follows.
“Chidi is a mench not a bench” so bench is b!tch but what’s a mench?
Men
You Sup ooooooohhhhh
Mensch is a Yiddish term meaning honorable man.
@@truesttome also the german word for human
German for man "more or less" which in this case translates to gentleman
Why does on Netflix it’s wrote that there is 9 episode and everyone is saying that this season have 14 episodes ?
Weexels
Episodes are released weekly
NO, YOU'RE CRYING!
They better end up together!!!
Im so afraid they won't :(
Tiara Johnson I’m starting to think that too 🙃
are you chidi...anna....kendrick...
At some point, not making a decision becomes a bad decision.
I love Chidi
I can be as indecisive as Chidi
0:47 - the WHAT that grinds in his garbage disposal mind?!!
*wait* ...... *they just showed how he died* .....
Anyone else sort of disappointed that they didn't use him being Senegalese into any plotline or story?
Chidi is ripped!
The one like was from the bad place
"Eating Nemo" on the menu
3:04, 5:58 time stamps for my philosophy lecture tomorrow on kant
I am both Chidi and Eleanor who wants to have the power like Michael.
"breaking Chidi's brain..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just realized!!! Chico’s friend is from In the Dark!!!! Holy forking shirt!
Cheleanor forever dammit!
yo but remember in season 1 chidi spoke french
May we, senor. Ack on ganye?
cheleanor endgame
Quaz before getting stuck into the Quantum Realm.
Wow ♡
Why even bother uploading this, when all of it gets undone, at the end of Seasons 1, 2, and 3?
Because the journey is the destination in life and love
@@tunahelpa5433 What?
Is his indecisiveness an actual medical condition? Like I know that the neurologist said that there was nothing wrong, but it seems like there is something else going on.
It definitely seems like some sort of anxiety disorder.
That Danny Rebus from eletric company long lost twin brother.
My favorite character is obvi Eleanor and Jason xD
whats with the sims music at the end
you mean the shows theme music?
did anyone know that eleanor did the voice of anna? omg i just found outttttt.....!!!!!!!!!
No wonder she sounded so familiar. I thought she sounded like barbie but now it makes sense
I don't believe Chidi deserved to go to the Bad Place because of his indecisiveness.
Is that princess carolyn's voice?
No. Amy Sedaris voices princess carolyn
Its princess anna
@@patlee4858 I assume ilove banku was asking if Kristen Bell also voices Princess Carolyn on Bojack Horseman.
3:06 how does a real person glitch like that?
Aww.
Will there be next season?
I always forget how jacked chidi is for a nerd
Danny Reebus still representing. Wonder if he still counts by fives? #PiesForPuppies
1:56 hey! >:(. Jason wasn’t a dirt bag!
YoU ReAd On YoUr OwN?!?!
