Michael is Having an Existential Crisis | The Good Place

We've all been there Michael...

THE GOOD PLACE ON SOCIAL:

NBC’s The Good Place follows Eleanor Shellstrop, Chidi Anagonye, Tahani Al-Jamil, and Jason Mendoza as they seek redemption in the afterlife, aided by Good Place Architect, Michael, and a human-esque repository for all of the knowledge in the universe, Janet.

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.

Michael having an existential meltdown is such a mood

I still can't believe Chidi put the fear of death into an immortal XD

[icarusgotooclose]

Chidi thinks it will take trillions of years to stop feeling guilty for telling a lie. Classic chidi

Poor Eleanor, her mother was stupid and casually cruel, because of it. No wonder she grew up bad, no guidance.

[jayfeather]

Considering her mother, it’s a miracle Elenor has any empathy at all

Honestly, I was 12 the first time it really hit me that I was going to die some day. I spent an entire year spiraling as I fell asleep, having a new existential crisis every night. Death is quite sobering, and it's fascinating to consider the concept from an immortal perspective.

I like the very Chidi-specific concept of the guilt from telling a lie taking a few trillion years to fade

[Mmc.]

I can't wait to show this show to my boyfriend it's so good!!

[fallonrishiva]

I just realised that to Chidi it would take a few trillion years for the guilt to fade for telling a lie

Michael is reminding me of Onoe Serika from "Chaos;Child" in this clip.

She was SO relatable. I have NO idea how we live with ourselves by putting constant small talk, and other secondary stuff, as the main priority.

[JabamiLain]

The funniest part for me, is that knowing the lack of meaning of existance only makes me want to live more ! A competition to prove life is more than an accident before the void comes for us ! Because a void sounds PRETTY boring.

I'm having one currently. It's called "Failing at entering a master's course before WW3 probably starts.".

A cool ranch baby would make me feel better 😂
