Clowns: 'cause Just Watching Latest "The Good Place" tv episode

Clowns, oh poor mistaken identity Eleanor is stuck with clown art in her home because the real Eleanor's profile said she loved them while she is actually terrified of them.  (Images of the clown corner/gallery at end under spoiler tag in case upset anyone with fear of clowns).

 

It just opened with her freaking a little and naming most of them while replacing one with some male candy.  Ted Danson's character is currently super freaking out (not about that).

 

In a pre-air interview, the actress Kristen Bell who plays Eleanor said:

"Where are you on the clown debate? Do you hate them as much as Eleanor does?

BELL: I don’t have any real feelings towards clowns. They don’t make me laugh, but they don’t terrify me. They just exist in the background. But the clowns in this show have been chosen to terrify Eleanor, which is a brilliant joke that she has to live with what we call a clown nook in her house. She has a corner devoted to all of these disgusting pictures of clowns. I think I name them, in one episode. I named them Psycho, Creepo, Freaky Feet and Nightmare George Washington. Nightmare George Washington is my favorite."
