My greatest hope for the Good Place is that when our heroes finally make it–when they finally accumulate enough points to go the actual Good Place–what they find there is not a paradise where they can rest and enjoy their afterlife, but a war zone.
Because truly good people, people who dedicate their lives to the service of others for no other reason than it is the right thing to do, would never passively accept an afterlife where they go to paradise and the people they spent their whole lives trying to help get tortured for the rest of eternity. They would just see another corrupt system punishing people who already spent lifetimes being victimized by corrupt systems. And they would fight back.
And the arrival of our four heroes in the Good Place is just the worst thing for the beings who run it. Because it proves what the humans have been saying all along–the system is flawed and is judging people on intentions and actions they aren’t entirely in control of (the actions and intentions of Eleanor and Tahani are very much driven by abusive parents who destroyed their moral compass in favor of emotional and physical self-preservation, Chidi has an anxiety disorder no one in his social circle did anything to help him with, and Jason lacks the education and social structure to understand right and wrong. Their moral failings have more to do with a system that failed them than it does about who they are fundamentally as people and I feel like truly good people would recognize that flaw in the points system and hate it).
So now our four humans, Michael, and Janet have a choice. They can either enjoy the paradise they fought so long and hard to get to, or they can join up with the rest of the Good Place humans and put an end to the system that put them in the bad place once and for all.
And that is where I’d really like to see the show go.
