Hallelujah — The Good Place Season 3 has finally hit its stride, suddenly revealing the tightly muscled, surprisingly chiselled emotional core that has been unfairly obscured by the t-shirt of setup. Finally, in episode 5 we’ve been treated to the existential hilarity we’ve been waiting for this entire season.
We open up this episode with the gang having stumbled upon Michael and Janet, and more importantly, their magic door to another dimension. Looks like the whole “secret earthling” plot has finally been rumbled, which is good news. Something about the extended artifice of that whole affair seemed to drag the plot down, and the characters only seemed half fleshed without their self-awareness of their weird situation.
So, Junkee reached out to Australian actress Kathy Luu, who actually got to interact with Shirtless Chidi in the latest episode.
We asked her just what the experience was like in real life, and this was her answer:
“It was like seeing a dream come true. Before me standing with a shopping trolley was a melding of both intellectual and physical beauty — proof that intelligence and physical hotness are not mutually exclusive. I almost couldn’t handle the amount of beauty that was before me. It was like the moral dynamism and strength of his thinking was reflected in curve and tone of his muscles. It was wonderful.”
