* Eleanor's bullshit-detection skills. [[ParentsAsPeople She definitely got those skills the hard way]], having to fight an uphill battle against her parents' irresponsibility and lies until [[spoiler: emancipating herself at fourteen and, later on,]] her death, but her unwillingness to trust that ''anyone'' is honest with her makes her rely on the reality around her to determine what is objectively true in the moment, not what she's told.

* That this show exists, challenging the typical beliefs of the politically powerful right wing Christian movement in the US, is a testament to the brilliance and determination of creator Michael Schur.

** Offscreen for the real Janet: she was able to fake being a Bad Janet after only 800 reboots thanks to her love for her friends, while it took more than 40 million reboots for Bad Janet to do the reverse. Good Janets are just ''better''.

** Bit of Fridge Awesome: Either Jeff is so irreplacable in his job for whatever reason that he knows he can pull stuff like this and get away with it, or he knew there was a possibility Gen would punish him and he still helped Janet and Michael. Either way, that's pretty amazing.



** Rather than indulge Shawn's gloating, [[ActionGirl Janet]] immediately throat chops him and takes on ''[[OneManArmy the entire squad of demons]].'' While largely [[BroughtDownToBadass depowered]], she easily takes down Bambadjan, breaks Vicky's arm, and completely decimates one demon with a [[ImprovisedWeapon pool triangle.]] Then the demons try to shove her into a portal on their own... [[NiceJobFixingItVillain only for that to reactivate her powers and let her kick them across the room.]] ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' would have been proud.

*** To make it even more awesome, the Soul Squad solved this problem in one episode after the Good Place architects were stumped by it for untold Bearimies.
