Calls forks “food rakes.” Invented Snake Juice. Created DJ Roomba.īad Place argument: Went into business with Jean-Ralphio.
Married well with Lucy, built a book empire that inspired many. Good Place argument: Learned to use his hustler powers for good instead of evil over time, becoming a valuable ally to Leslie and others. We’re told Good Place admission is for “the cream of the crop,” and letting Ann in opens the floodgates to a large chunk of the world’s medical professionals. Verdict: That last question ruins her chances, I think. Good Place argument: Nurse and public health official, good friend to Leslie, kind and compassionate, even got April to like her by the end.īad Place argument: Dated Andy. Verdict: Andy grew enormously over the run of the show, but he racked up a lot of negative points from before we met him through the end of the first season, and I don’t think he did enough after to overcome that rough start. Loves calzones, doesn’t love Lil Sebastian.
A great guy who devoted his life to public service, and was willing to publicly admit to liking Garry.īad Place argument: If Leslie wasn’t POTUS, he was, and he seems less likely to have remained utterly pure in the job. Good Place argument: The perfect partner for Leslie, and thus deserving of at least partial credit for her greatness. Again, the bar is absurdly, unfairly high, and while Ron’s motivations were mostly impeccable, I don’t feel like his actions get him close to admittance. Couldn’t resist falling for awful women named Tammy.
#WHICH TWO PARKS AND REC CHARACTERS PROFESSIONAL#
Most of his biggest professional accomplishments were the result of Leslie’s efforts. Worked with his hands, built things from scratch, lived off the land.īad Place argument: A bit too much of a loner. Never did any of the many douchey things we see as signifiers of Bad Place behavior. Good Place argument: Fundamentally decent, self-sufficient, would also go the extra mile for the people he cared about. Also, the very first thing she would do upon admission to The Good Place would be petitioning to have the rules become much less strict, so that all her friends could be there, too. If Leslie did become POTUS, she somehow was able to do it without forsaking her beliefs. Could also be kind of terrifying to be friends when it came to gift-buying time, and her motives were occasionally suspect even when she was doing good things. Ideally, the kind of person the points system was designed to reward.īad Place argument: The finale implies that she’s the President of the United States a few decades into the future (or else First Lady to Ben), and only one POTUS has ever gotten into The Good Place, thanks to all the moral compromises required to do the job. Accomplished miracles both great (saving the economies of multiple towns, creating a new national park) and small (getting Ron to be her friend). Would do anything for the people she cares about, and would even go the extra mile for people she hates (like the people of Eagleton, or even Jeremy Jamm). Good Place argument: She’s one of the most pure-hearted, selfless, compassionate characters in the history of television.
#WHICH TWO PARKS AND REC CHARACTERS SERIES#
But then various fans started arguing for or against different characters, so I decided to break it down, regular by regular, considering all their behavior throughout the series, including the decade-spanning series finale, followed at the end of the article by comments from Schur himself, who created all these people, as well as the rules for The Good Place: My initial reaction was to say that Leslie Knope would, of course, make it into The Good Place, and that Chris Traeger might. Better question is if they reside in the same universe, which ParksandRec characters are making it into the good place and which to the bad?
