Corrected entry: They say that no-one has got into the Good Place in 521 years, but in the Pilot Eleanor is told by Michael that all the US presidents are in the Bad Place except for Lincoln. He's not lying - Abe Lincoln's name is also put on the chalk board when they are coming up with people to be the first to go through the system (season 4 episode 11). (00:13:08)
Corrected entry: In the beginning, season 1, Chidi says that the good place translates a language for the other person to understand and he says he is speaking French to Eleanor, however in season 3 they return back to earth to see if they change to be good, and when they meet again they all speak English to each other on earth. It can't be that reality's changed, because it's made clear they're meant to operate with no interference and have nothing in common beyond the Good Place, so there's no reason to make it easier for them to communicate. (00:08:25)
Correction: Chidi spoke/speaks English on Earth and he has taught ethics in several countries, including Australia. But since he was raised in Senegal, French is his primary language. The fact that Chidi was speaking French and it was translated to English (or that English was translated into French for him) was only done to trick everyone into thinking they're in the Good Place.
Correction: In the pilot episode, Michael was lying, which was the whole point. And the reason his name (along with everyone else) is there is because he's in the Bad Place. There is no mistake.
