Sometimes I feel like life is moving too fast. I keep wanting to take it slow. Oh, you need 30 credits to get through high school? What if I just took one credit each year? But then I have to remind myself that if I did that, 30 years will have passed. There's only so much they can do in your 80-year time limit.

Atheists bash religion and the absurdity of following the philosophy of a “self-proclaimed divine creature,” yet they claim that man-made philosophy, such as that presented in the good place, is an absolute truth and a fact of life. They’re saying they don’t like superstition, but they can’t live without it, without something more to believe in. They say we’re organic matter that decomposes, but they can’t help not committing suicide without convincing themselves that “this life” matters for some mysterious reason. I love this show because it brings out the humanity of everyone, the desire to pursue meaning beyond a shallow existence. People of every belief - Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, Atheists, Agnostics, etc - can all connect to this show in the same way. I honestly do not know the absolute truth, or if there even is a truth. Perhaps life is truly meaningless. For the sake of my sanity, I will stick to my belief in God.

For me, for as long as I remember I wanted to die. I lost all meaning in life and only lived to get a job to make a lot of money because I thought that would make me happy. This show made me realize that that won't bring me happiness. I never connected with people ever, my friendships never lasted long since I never put effort into maintaining them. Then I met some people that connected with me and brought meaning back into my life. They helped me see that there's more to my life. And I built connections with them and helped them out when they needed it. Maybe one day I'll get a good job and make a lot of money, but I'll know that that isn't what's going to make me happy, it's the connections I have with people.

Pretty much everyone I know just couldn't or wouldn't "get" the show.

My favorite part of the last two episodes is that just like how the good place was given an exit door, we as an audience were also given that choice. The choice to stop there, with all of our favorite characters happy and together in the good place, or to watch the last episode and metaphorically walk through the final door. And we get to do this in our own time and say goodbye to the show whenever we feel ready to.

Because they seem to be still there in front of you but their brain has deteriorated and so they do not remember you or even themselves.

It's very rare a show ends perfectly, this and Parks and Rec just were perfection! I am happy with every character's arc

I think your spirit becomes the "voice in your head" Eleanor kept mentioning. When she crossed it, she turned into dust, that dust fell on a dude on Earth. That dude was about to throw Michael's letter in the trash, because it was given to him by mistake, but after Eleanor's dust hit him, he decided to do the right thing. Your essence inspires other people on Earth to become better. The good person inspires other good people. The wave goes back to the ocean

It kind of is. But if we think about it, Eleanor will only enjoy and know her true self, her beeest version when she is on her own and overcomes losing her love, the one that literally teached her how to be a better person... I don't know, that's what I think...

The Good Place had one of the most satisfying finales in a long time, especially after the hellpit of shock value that destroyed storytelling last year. I just want to thank and hug the writers of the show for bringing back my faith in screenwriting. You don't have to "shock" people with stupid twists to make a satisfying ending and TGP proved it.

I thought it was inspirational and heartwarming to see that all of our main character's loved ones - even some people who hurt others and did a lot of harm (Tahani's parents for example) ended up in the real good place! It shows that people have it in themselves to change for the better.

That's not the essential question of The Good Place; it's pretty clearly "What do we owe each other?"

"She makes the bass drop... in my heart". Best compliment ever

in the end, as michael (almost) said way back when, the real good place was the friends we made along the way

When Chidi said he wanted to go through the door and did, I was crying, then Jason showed up, I though "yay he is still here", and he walked through the door later, I cried again. It was a rollercoaster of emotions. Thanks.

It’s so strange, when Chidi chose to leave it actually made me bawl my eyes out. It really made me miss and appreciate all the loves ones who have left me . Really beautiful ending to the show ❤️

great, now i'm crying again. The wave returns to the ocean.

As someone who doesn't think there's an afterlife, watching the series finale just hit me. Call it existential crisis, call it feeling of loneliness, but it stuck with me for days. And it wasn't even my favourite show or anything (or my favourite finale), but it was something.

Let's just take a moment to realized how many shows endings were ruined by this video.

This was an incredible show that wrapped up perfectly, but I want more 😭

This show is a masterpiece. Its meaningful and deep, while also being silly and random. Ive watched it 3 times through and it never gets old

“What’s your religion? What do you believe happens after you die?” Me: “It’s complicated”

I cannot state enough how much I adore and cherish this show. A tv show that actually made me want to be a better person.

When I heard the wave analogy it resonated with me. While I don't believe in an afterlife, I thought how lucky I am to have known good people some of whom are no longer with us and instead of having regret I had an epiphany that I was lucky to have them be willing to call me their friend. A truly inspiring series which opened my eyes to many things.

The dreariness of immortality in The Good Place and the option to check out to who knows where reminded me of the fate of Elves vs. humans in Tolkien's Middle Earth.

I wish we could have more Eleanor as the master Architect and playing with mortals. I miss Eleanor and Chidi so much.

This show was such a ride i dont think ill ever forget it

I've watched alot of series/sitcoms. I have to say The Good Place finale is among top 5. Many great shows fumble on how to properly end their shows and let their fans have closure to the characters they fall in love with for the duration of the run, maybe years. The Good Place, like this video mentioned, went back to the root and the beginning of the show for its finale. It doesn't over explains stuffs the writers really don't know, in this case afterlife. It just leave a tiny bit of ambiguity for the viewers. Not really a happy ending, nor is it a sad ending but definitely a satisfying one.

Agreed. What are your other fave finales?

This reminds me of the concept mentioned in Yunus Emre’s one poem(?). Roughly translates to: What is it that they call paradise (Jannah), A couple of mansions a couple of beauties (houri s), Give them to who asks for them, I need you [strictly] you Yunus Emre is talking to god in here, Allah specifically. He doesn’t feel satisfied with the promised beauties of the good place, he longs eternity and beauty through god itself. Often this poem is read as Yunus Emre’s love towards god but I think half the charm of these sentences comes from admitting that what god has offered us as a prize is still just earth but better. I as a believer think that that is done this way so even the most “morally corrupted” can be persuaded to behave the way god wants, by threats and prizes. But if you see beyond earth, which is what most religions ask of their people, then you’ll no longer want those prizes or have a reason to fear those threats and eventually you’ll end up discarding them all to reach god. Weird. What we have been promised and have strived for, the good place, is in actuality just the last thing we need to give up to reach the best place. At least that’s how I see it.

Unbelievable! Such a long video and you didn't nail it! THEY DO GIVE THE ANSWER AT THE END!!! At the end they become voices of consciousness. That little voice that help you doing good deeds. That was it! You should really watch the very last minutes of that last episode!

"Wait until Beyonce gets here, ask her to fix it" made me laugh so hard

The ending really surprised me. I was expecting something like that’s they have forever to do stuff. It was such a deep ending a lot like the office which was written by the same man !

Legacy, how you are remembered by the people you've interacted with though out your entire life. Your wisdom, your humor and all of the deeds you did in life, large and small. I will admit, I've never seen the show but I think that's the message.

Also, I feel that they chose ‘take it sleazy’ to be the show’s final line as a way of closing a chapter or saying goodbye to the fans of the show.

After finishing up my requirements for my last year of college, I finally was able to watch The Good Place. I never felt this feeling of sad before. I've never been good a goodbyes and I guess this is just one of them.

I just watched it in Netflix today because In my country it only came yesterday. The ending was bittersweet for sure, I cried a ton. I hope that whoever is reading this, it is a sign for you to do what is the desire of your heart. It is scary, so why not do it while being scared. We only live ONCE, make it your Own.

Here's the thing... we NEVER cease to exist. What gets annihilated is our 'false' ego... what we THINK we are... not what we Truly are. We are pure Awareness... THAT which has never been born, and never dies. We are THAT which is the Source ... and Witness of all experiences. To fully Realize one's underlying CONSTANT SELF... which is the SAME in all... that's Enlightenment.
