After The Good Place series finale aired, the cast joined late-night host Seth Meyers for a live after-show. Meyers asked The Good Place actors what was the most emotional part about ending the show for good.

“The Redwoods, that was pretty emotional,” Ted Danson said. “The final goodbyes, that was pretty emotional.”

Jameela Jamil also told William Jackson Harper, “your speech killed me,” in reference to his series finale monologue about the Buddhist take on death. “I’ll never ever recover from that”

Kristen Bell also revealed on the recap show that Eleanor and Chidi’s touching scene on the bridge in Paris was the last shot The Good Place filmed.

“When we shot on the bridge—it’s called the Artist’s Bridge in Paris, that was … pretty emotional,” Bell explained. “Mike our creator kept it rolling, and … we were just both sobbing.”

Manny Jacinto shared: “the table read for me was probably the most emotional. Hearing those words out loud for the first time, and hearing it all together.”

“It was snotty,” Bell agreed. “It was very, very wet at that table read.”

Danson summed the series finale up with some lovely words.

“It was perfect for all of us,” he said. “It was a perfect ending to our story and Mike’s story … It was sad but uplifting and kind and gentle and sweet.” That it was, Ted.

I don’t mess with Social media much. I’m too sensitive. (And crabby) But thanks to all the folks who rode this wave these past four years with us. Thanks to the best cast and crew ever. Now…we return to the ocean. Bye y’all.
