New Girl on FOX HD - Page 11

post #301 of 427
IDK but I think I love Jess even more.. when she dresses up she's stunning... when she is "normal" she's adorable...

I wonder why she wears glass-less "glasses" anyway... even as a teenager..

Maybe she wants to show her big blues with nothing to obscure them..

Plano lenses for actors/actresses playing characters who wear glasses, even if the performer also needs refractive correction and is wearing contacts behind the spectacles, are quite a common practice.  Otherwise the refraction of the lenses would distort the audience's view of the performer's face.

The only exception comes when the character's poor eyesight is part of the story and viewers are supposed to notice the distortion.

Just watched the DVR last night. The whole "slapping" scene between Cece and Jess was . . . funny wink.gif

I may be crazy but thought this episode was very funny. Loved the parallel issues that Jess and Nick were having. Especially loved the Nick and Schmidt backstory. He just showed up and never left. I mainly threw things at him.

I thought it was a pretty funny episode. Zooey's bits were funny and well done, and the guys were okay.

Watched it tonight off the DVR. Probably my favorite episode of the new season. Ford was a bit much, but I'll excuse that since Zoey was hilarious. I also can't hate an episode that has Nadia in it. Dance cracker bear, dance!

Schmidt: These brains are terrible. And such small portions.
Nick: On Christmas, I like to eat Chinese people's brains. They're the only ones that are open.
Jess: Zombie . . . Christina . . . Barcelona
Winston: I couldn't afford my therapist so I ate his brains.

Nick: I didn't punch a girl. I punched a horrifying monster. You of all people should know this, Frankenstein.
Frankenstein: You're the real monster!

Zoey was the cutest zombie ever!

Pretty funny episode. Kinda interesting how the main characters are back to single. Except for resurrecting the Schmidt / Cece thing

I thought this week's episode was pretty good. Nick's interaction with the old man at the park was great. Jess melting down during the interview was treading old comedy territory, but I thought it was funny.

Agree. Blue tubes indeed.

This episode was funny and weird at the same time. Mostly funny, though biggrin.gif

Chunks of it were among the funniest bits I have seen on the show. And other chunks were the same old stuff. Still, the show continues to be worth watching.

The bits at the swimming pool were hilarious.. LOL

No one has mentioned Schmidt and his boss including the huge contract waiver Schmidt agreed to sign. Lead poisoning?
post #316 of 427
Good episode and we got the bonus of seeing Zoey in a two-piece smile.gif

Also can't forget about the incredibly sexy guest-appearance by Carla Gugino! I'd probably sign almost anything for a shot at her wink.gif
post #317 of 427
gugino is one of the, if not the most sexy actresses in the biz. Loved that black dress...

Great episode. Nick and the old man killed me. Seeing Carla was a nice treat, but it reminded me too much of her stint on Californication. I wanted to see more of her...lots more of her. Mandatory magnesium poisoning cracked me up. I'm not a fan of the Cece/Schmidt thing. Be together or end it. I'm also glad the arc of Jess not having a job is over.

Last night's episode was not great outside of Winston starting the Schmidt-off. I find Ben and Kate mostly boring so when New Girl doesn't start off hot it can be a real drag.

Another great Nick episode. He is one of my favorite characters in TV history, probably because he is so relatable (minus the dropping out of law school, that is).

Agreed but Schmidt is a vagenius.

Where's the transcript of Schmidt's description to the OBGYN? that was pure gold!

“I call that ‘Losing Nemo.’ That asymmetry is crucial. Because then what I’ll do is, I’ll go outside… get the paper… then shake the neighbor’s hand. Then what I’ll do is, I’ll tie a bow on it, because it’s birthday time… and get on stage and collect my Oscar and say ‘Thank you to the people… thank you to the people!’ then get back down off stage and get everybody into the sharing circle. Right down there into the sharing circle. And then [slaps desk] spike the volleyball! Then what I like to do is, I like to arrive at the bridge and meet the troll and then answer his riddles three. Then what we’re doing is we’re dancing. We’re just going dance, and dance for a while. We’re dancin’ ’til you can’t dance anymore. Dancin’ ’til you can dance. Any. More. And then everybody. Gets. Churro.”




Schmidt: Sadie, before you leave, can I ask you a few questions?
Sadie: I know where this is going…
Schmidt: You are a gynecologist and a lesbian, which makes you… well, a vagenius.
Jess: Jar!
Sadie: I know my way around a Grizzly Adams.
Jess: You, too? Jar.
Schmidt: As an adult male, I would like to ask you a few questions about… the downstairs girl-cookie.
Jess: Jars! Jars! All around jars!
Sadie: This is my personal time right now, but you can make an appointment at my office, pay your $40 copay, and I will be happy to answer your questions.
Schmidt: Yes! I’m in! Please. Would I have to put my legs up in the stirrups?
Sadie: Why would you?
Schmidt: I’m asking more so out of curiosity than fear. Hashtag: Excitement!
Cece: Are you done?

That's inconsistent with the pregnancy scare, when he thought that he could impregnate his fetal daughter by having sex again with Cece after the conception.

Guess he must have studied a lot since then, or, gosh, stop the presses, a TV sitcom has a discontinuity.

I just watched the most recent episodes. I like Nick more and more with each episode. The part with him on the couch telling Rob Reiner about his idea for a Zombie book that was remarkably similar to Twilight was hilarious. Then his quest to live life like Hemingway in the most recent episode was great. Ya idiots.

I thought that was a strong midseason finale. The sequence of Nick to Schmidt dancing to black Santa Claus Cop had me laughing out loud. I kinda wish Fox hadn't spoiled Jess running into the glass walls because I think that would have been side splitting if I hadn't seen it five or six times before that.
post #327 of 427
I cringed at having that chick on the show! Glad it won't be a norm, i'm guessing she was the one that wanted her character to be a stripper?rolleyes.gif
"You never finish anything! You're only 3 episodes in on Downton Abbey" lol I'm only 4 episodes in with that show!tongue.gif
post #328 of 427
Having Olivia Munn and David Walton in the same episode was too reminiscent of "Perfect Couples," especially because Mary Elizabeth Ellis was in some episodes last year.  That's half the cast of that show and, the way Hayes MacArthur pops up on sitcoms it can't be long before he guests on "New Girl."

So whom would that leave from "Perfect Couples"?  Just Christine Woods and Kyle Bornheimer.  They're probably going to be seen on "New Girl" eventually.

Winston's telling Schmidt stories of getting crack in the old days broke me. I could not stop laughing. There is some good drunk Nick stuff at the cabin.
post #330 of 427
The Schmidt/Winston story was funny.

As for the cabin angle, I'll just say that I was hoping for Munn's character to get shot by one of the rifles.
