A bit of a slow start, but those last 5 minutes were worth the wait. Creepy and disturbing, they know how to build up a scene and set the right tone for the show. This looks promising.
The Walking Dead, eat your brain out!
CHEDDAR CHEDDAR CHEDDAR CHEDDAR HEAVY BREATHING
Amy singing the Itsy Bitsy Spider song is the absolute cutest thing ever.
I can't even articulate a response to that charades scene. Andy Samberg just kills me.
"And also, remember your turtle, Graham Crackers?"
"DAD HAD SEX WITH MY TURTLE?!"
Boyle is basically me throughout this series. I ship Jamy (Ake?) so hard.
"The doctor said all the bleedings were internal. That's where the blood's supposed to be!" LOOOOOOL
Not exactly my favorite episode of the series. I usually very much enjoy Jake and Terry together but the whole Jake being injured part of this episode didn’t work for me and wasn’t very funny in the end. Holt and Diaz had some sweet scenes together but not to carry the episode and I really disliked Amy and Gina’s journey in this episode.
Intimacy buffers will become necessary at my next party.
Jake actively making it harder for Amy and Rosa to solve his case brought some comedy and Jake being kidnapped also provided some good comedy with bringing Chris Parnell back from earlier this season. Boyle teaming up with Hitchcock and Scully was nice change of pace as well, but Holt and Terry’s lies with Gina didn’t work for me in this episode at all.
A pretty solid first episode
[6.4/10] The Good Place is getting a little too simplistic and didactic for my tastes here. The premise of the A-story is a good one -- Michael is an immortal being and so has never had to really consider morality because he’s never truly had to face the concept of death. So when he is facing the real prospect of “retirement,” at Chidi’s urging, he has a breakdown. That leads to some great comic acting from Ted Danson as his face practically melts with anguish and he curls up into a ball on Eleanor’s lap. It’s a heady thing to play for comic notes, but it works.
Buy then the show gets really broad and obvious about it. Having Michael shift from “existential crisis” to “mid-life crisis” is a clever enough twist, but the episode goes really cheesy with the humor, and it doesn’t land. At the same time, the flashbacks with Eleanor learning about death from her crappy mom have some decent laughs in them, but their message is too blunt. Eleanor considers how damaging ignoring your bad feelings about death is given the source, and then delivers an aesop to Michael about it. It’s too neat and too easy.
The B-story is solid, until the end. I like the idea that Tahani knows she’s intended to be “tortured” by having her great party be upstaged by one the demons are throwing, but that the realization that she still can’t beat them in party planning nevertheless bothers her. It’s an interesting opportunity for Tahani to have some self-reflection, and Jason offering her some comfort and support in his typically dim-witted way is sweet.
But man, having them sleep together feels like such a standard sitcom move. Not every instance of someone being nice to a member of the opposite sex needs to lead to romance. And it comes off like the show needing something for Tahani and Jason to do while bigger plot stuff is going on in the rest of the show. I’m not a fan of that choice, to state the obvious, though maybe I’m just salty because I was oddly compelled by last season’s Jason/Janet pairing.
Overall, one of the more standard-to-cornball episodes of the show thus far.
At this point, it seems like the show is just checking boxes before moving on with its story.
Ted Danson has some really funny moments in this episode, but it has been four episodes already, this season must start getting somewhere.
THEY BONED.
Maybe next time we will see it. Or, you know, just a kiss.
BUT THEY BONED.
Kevin was right about the Monty Hall Problem.
First, when you choose one of the three doors, you have only 33, (3)% chance of choosing the right one. So, probably, you chose the wrong door. Then, when the host opens one of the two doors that you didn't choose, to reveal it's the wrong door, the other one now have 66,(6)% chance to be the right door, while the door that you chose still remains with the 33,(3)% chance to be right. Therefore, you need to switch doors.
Oh man, what a mess. A good mess though. We're finally getting a sense of what happened to Jughead and now I'm thinking that he and Betty came up with a ridiculous plan, throwing everyone of their game.
I'm interested in Donna now. I wonder if we'll get some backstory of her but also Bret. I wouldn't mind exploring those characters because they are the best addition to the cast since... well since always.
