But I don't think anyone was ready for those PECS.

They said they're gonna release an extended version of last night's episode that's at least 5 minutes longer!
I thought it would be the name of the first human that figured it out like the other guy in S1 but when he wrote it out and explained it I lost it.
I was hoping it was a HHG2TG reference, with the immortal guy who went around insulting people wishing his flight plan spelled out something rude.
Tahani and Jason handing out money was so cute. You don't have to say the "are you poor" part lmao
Adorable, yeah. I loved that part of the episode. And Tahani's cluelessness always makes me smile. This was a good followup to her gaff when Eleanor won the lottery.
I mean ...believing is one thing, actually seeing it was quite the suprise.
Damn...guess I need to hit the gym again. Chidi making us nerds look bad..wtf.
lol
Nice callback.
Huh. I didn't even realize this. That's a nice callback!
That's my guess. Chidi was just written as a moral philosopher, & there's nothing about his personality that suggests he works out much until that joke earlier this season. Now that the show's 3 seasons in & they're well aware that Harper is ripped, that bit about him working out may have been just like the karate nerd there, too.
Always thought it was obvious Chidi was jacked.
We always knew he was slim, but nothing about these image really show you how toned he is.
I loved this part. It showed Eleanor picking up Chidi from his low point, just as he helped her through hers.
Nice callback.
It was a nice bookend.
I also really liked the explanation of having their motivations corrupted simply by learning that both Places exist.
I dont know. There is a lot to unpack from this episode, since it was so joke dense.
Eleanor's rant about America was pretty cutting, too. No lies detected.
In America, everyone does whatever they want, society did break down, it's terrible, and it's great! You only look out for number one, scream at whoever disagrees with you, there are no bees because they all died, and if you need surgery you just beg for money on the internet.

Strictly speaking, doesn't that mean that you're guaranteed to go to the Bad Place just for believing in religion?
Buried in Discworld there's the notion that you'll basically get whatever afterlife you believe you deserve (which leads to the punchline "Which is why you should shoot missionaries on sight"); I think perhaps the same could be construed as being the case here.
I think the implication is that because the four have learned the legitimate truth about the Good and Bad Place given to them by actual representatives of those places, as opposed to just a religious idea or interpretation created by humans, that's what's disqualifying them.
Another recent example of an actor's body not fitting the character would the the nerdy main character in Santa Clarita Diet. He's supposed to be a nerd that doesn't do sports nor exercise, gets taunted by his step dad in Season one, and suddenly you see that he has a six pack when he takes off his shirt.
It's probably because actors need to look better and have better bodies these days, regardless of their role. Especially if it's a tv series and not a movie where they might method act and change their bodies to fit the role.
How are they going to release a longer version? Like on the DVD set?
edit: Also, joining the chorus of Chidi ripped posts :D
He was, very briefly, in Mindy St. Clair's sex tape of him & Eleanor, but it's brief & IIRC, most of his torso's under the blanket.
Extended episodes are on the NBC app. You typically need a cable login to use it. I think S1 and S2 eps are up but I don't know about S3.
If you have a cable service that includes free NBC On-Demand it will probably show up there eventually. Most of the episodes of the first two seasons have had extended episodes that showed up there.
I wonder if Netflix will have the extended version... That's how I watch it from out of the US.
I feel like Chidi's Ned Flanders body was established or maybe I've just been imagining him topless this whole time.
I legit thought the same thing, yet apparently the only time he's come close to showing off his buffness is when he was in bed w/ Eleanor
Yeah I remember it being a thing in season one, even if it was a reference to an offscreen moment.
