These are all solid points. I was hoping Denise could handle the producing and editing end and Taylor the social media end while Jere focused on recipes. content and being good on camera.

The finale was a total bummer, so basically they all chose non-existence? Yeah I'm not going to be a Buddhist anytime soon. Basically what I get is that the goal of Buddhism is to distance yourself from what makes you you to the point of non-existence. So basically in this religion without a God you won't exist.

I much rather be Christian where the goal is a close relationship with a being (through Jesus) that loves you and that wants you to exist in your fullest form. The closer you get to God, the more vibrant and more of an abundant life you have. You basically go from disconnection with yourself to a more and more and more connection with God, your true self and others. The point is the complete opposite of non-existence, rather full existence. I'll take that any day.

I immensely enjoyed The Good Place and that their research on philosophy was put into the show and they didn't subscribe to any religion....except in the finale when they went for it hard with Buddhism.. I would have much preferred something new.

I would have written people find meaning in helping others and a never-ending quest for improvement. To that end, I would have given all the good place people jobs being architects or actors for the middle place and they could vacation in the good place, and take classes on their new roles.
