Fans love the idea that Shawn could be married to Brooklyn Nine-Nine's Holt
In addition to playing Shawn on "The Good Place," Jackson has also had a recurring role in "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" (https://www.looper.com/72616/untold-truth-brooklyn-nine-nine/) as Capt. Raymond Holt's (Andre Braugher) husband Kevin. Though many actors have crossed over in Schur's shows before, fans on Reddit became fascinated with the idea that Kevin and Shawn may be the same person.
"I always had a headcanon that shawn decided to be a human try it out cuz why not? Michael got to be a human..." posted u/i-am-egg-tart (https://www.reddit.com/r/TheGoodPlace/comments/n5p2ug/comment/gx4bgtc/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). "And then he ended up as Holt's husband." In some ways, Kevin and Shawn are as different as night and day. Shawn is a demon who relishes putting humans through pain. Though reserved, Kevin clearly has a capacity for love and has one of the best relationships on "Brooklyn Nine-Nine." However there are some similarities as well. Both share deadpan humor and show a delight for the darker spectrum of human emotion.
In one post, one fan even pointed out that Kevin has, at times, been just as brutal as Shawn. "Further proof that Kevin from B99 and Shawn are the same person," commented u/14thyear (https://www.reddit.com/r/TheGoodPlace/comments/bmu4le/further_proof_that_kevin_from_b99_and_shawn_are/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) with a graphic of Kevin giving a dark description, just like Shawn has done in the past. It's entirely probable that Shawn could have gone to Earth to become human and fallen in love with Holt. In the Schur comedic universe, anything is possible.
