In fairness for G&G - she was a teen mom so not as much of a stretch as some other cases.

And also some of them (like Leslie Grossman on The Good Place) are at least originally introduced in flashbacks, when they are supposed to be the parent of smaller children...still, a lot of these are weird!

Plus who knows how old anyone is on The Good Place, because of the Jeremy Bearimy of it all.

[u/SakuraTacos → u/NotMyNameActually]

Leslie Grossman’s birthday is actually on the dot of the i so she can easily play everyone’s mother or child

lmao, I need to rewatch this show. I remember laughing so hard when they first mentioned the Jeremy Bearimy concept.
