The Good Place! πŸ’œ
The first character I first fell in love with: michael, before i even started the show i remember seeing a clip of him sacrificing himself for eleanor near the end of series 2 and being HEARTBROKEN 😭 as soon as i started watching it definitely tahani and chidi
The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: jason :') he means the world to me, how he's the 'dumb childish and impulsive' character i relate to a lot but still comes up with some of the most important solutions, not just despite but because of the above, how he's fun loving and knows exactly how to help people a lot of the time and perceptive and wise in his own way and above all so incredibly KIND <3
The character everyone else loves that I don’t: not reallyy sure who everyone loves but probably eleanor? obviously she's supposed to be unlikeable to start with but she still bugs me through, however i also like how they didn't make her some perfect lovely person all the time and she is still good in the ways that matter most. also the way they did her bisexuality and her saying things like more guys should get over themselves and be bi it's 2018... just no (:
The character I love that everyone else hates: again, not sure who everyone hates but everyone on the show at least is constantly dismissive of and annoyed at jason (that adhd mood) when he's got this living (or not) business down better than any of them :')
The character I used to love but don’t any longer: janet?? idk as she got more 'human' through the seasons i liked her less, especially how much her 'humanity' was tied to/indicated by her developing romantic feelings :/ also the common thing of a character behaving more 'human' actually a lot just being this character behaving more neurotypical... and of course there's the 'diversity win! this not-robot who's misgendered constantly as a joke is nonbinary!' thing but that's not her fault 🀣
The character I would totally smooch: tahani maybe 😳
The character I’d want to be like: definitely jason, he's so at peace with the world and himself <3 also tahani by the end, the way she finishes the show single and knowing and respecting herself and it's framed as nothing but an absolute success is just UGH *chef's kiss* the ideal :') alas (no offense to chidi ofc) i've realised recently just how much of a chidi i am πŸ˜”πŸ˜”
The character I’d slap: eleanor and tahani's parents :)
A pairing that I love: jason and tahani πŸ₯Ί doesn't mean i wanted them to end up together and it was absolutely right that they ended it but aaah they're so important <3 also jason and janet's relationship when it first started and it was literally just based on them being kind to each other πŸ₯ΊπŸ₯Ί and ofc the cheleanor in the last ep made me SOB
A pairing that I despise: not at all despise but the not quite queerbaiting haha eleanor will keep making side jokes that portray her attraction to women as way more trivial and insignificant compared to that to men and let everyone jump on the train but we'll never show any of it despite other characters having different relationships in different versions! :) :) :) thing w tahani gets on my nerves :/ also the fact that michael/shawn is a thing... roving white male slash fandom you really had your work cut out with this one and yet you managed it didn't you!! πŸ™ƒ also i'm not a fan of shipping michael with anyone, aside from anything else he is aroace and canonically repulsed by kissing :)
ty for the ask! πŸ’›
