Rolling "New Girl" televison show thread

Well, then you should be happy that "Coach" is coming back to New Girl for at least a visit. If you don't know the story: http://newgirl.wikia.com/wiki/Coach

Nice for New Girl to at least have an arc where there isn't just one token black character, but two pretty hilarious ones. At least Winston is to some degree. Coach obv never got a chance to spread his wings.

The way they've mastered having 4 people talking at once each telling a different joke.

yeah this is p much it. it's extremely well edited

They moved this to Mondays? Ah well, I'll catch it on demand

Today is Tuesday.

I am losing my mind, sorry

Some great stuff tonight. Held up.

i thought it was decent, though clearly more effort was set up resolving the cliffhanger and setting up this season, which is fine. so much better than that terrible samberg show.

I thought samberg show coulda been much worse. It's not great, but it had some ok lines.

the rest of the cast wasn't bad, but samberg pretty much ruined it for me. his whole, "lookit me! i just made a HILARIOUS joke" smirk bothered me so much more than it ever did on snl.

Better than the new Mindy Project though I'm not sure that's high praise

this show's fine. they just added s2 to netflix so we watched like 4 eps last night. do they ever give winston a real plotline? also why does everyone make a big deal about schmidt when nick is clearly the funniest character?

Winston definitely gets fleshed out, and he gets something of a plotline or two but it's usually the b-plot. Definitely feels like he forced in there at times, no matter how fleshed out he gets. But he's a good enough character and has enough good lines/parts that it doesn't bother me.

feel bad for that dude. he's a funny actor but his character really gets shafted. we watched the one last night where he's bad at pranks, he was great.

that episode is a Winston tour-de-force

"let's put some juice by her shoe"

(though technically that line was delivered by kid-actor winston)

his general prank thing of taking things too far. "Let's stab him...with a knife" or whatever, is hilarious. He was great in the latest episode with the puzzles and the color-blindness.

i didnt really know how i was supposed to feel when they all got away with forgetting winston's bday

This show is kind of like "Moonlighting" in that it got boring quick as soon as the "will they, won't they" suspense was over.

I'll give it more than one episode to decide if that's the case.

Well, it's been kind of obvious for a while that they were getting together, hasn't it? It seems like the suspense has been gone since midway through last season.

I really enjoyed there flirting and on again off again weirdness last season, and again this past week. Not sure where it will go. Read that the writers are thinking more along the lines of Jim and Pam and Leslie and Ben instead of Sam and Diane or Ross and Rachel.

Winston really needs his own show. Schmidt can come. but only if he ditches the love interests.

never ditch cece

Well, no, obviously. But wifey seems so nice. Actually she can do better, losing Schmidt won't be so terrible for her, because she doesn't need to be with someone. But if you ask me who I would rather spend (platonic) time with the answer wouldn't be Cece.

That scene with Winston, Schmidt and Cece was VERY well choreographed. Lamorne Morris was killing it whenever he was in the background of those shots.

Also Winston wearing a hoodie as pants.

Winston is so fucking funny, it's criminal

(I finally saw the S2 finale this week and every thing he did slayed me)

I love that he is this secret weapon the show can break out whenever they need guaranteed laughs.

i prefer the kilborn daily show i think its the best one

really do not like what they're doing w/ Schmidt this season. dude was a douche last year but this is next level douchery.

yeah it's kinda ugh

like the whole blaming Jess and Nick thing is so not something he would have done last season, even if it was partially for LOLs. and I still don't understand why he didn't just pick CeCe outright. the dude is vain, he was clearly obsessed with her and only went back to Elizabeth when it was clear CeCe was getting married. yeah, he had that old school connection w/ her, but he never woulda given her a chance if not for CeCe being off the market for real.

watching season 2 on netflix and still laughing over the "we got chokes, hula hoops, and a sitar" thing in the hipster episode.

that was probably my favourite line of the whole series.

great ep, everything with nick in a motorcycle helmet = A+

Winston walking up to the restaurant reservation desk and eating the glass bead thinking it was a mint = greatest thing ever.

Winston was really the MVP of the episode. His antics to shoo other people away from the community table were the best.

I really hope the show doesn't go to darker places though, as that's not its niche. Hoping the whole Schmidt thread of trying to break Jess/Nick up doesn't become the prevailing story arc, but I doubt they're likely to just leave it untouched, so I have a bad feeling about it.

It's the basis of the next episode so def an arc. Hopefully a short one.

it needs some darkness to balance out the preciously goofy antics

i doubt it'll be long. i hope they stop trying to get CeCe and Schmidt together now, but of course we'll be dragged into that again i'm sure

Winston's monologue about the double date was brilliant. At firs they cut away to him and all 4 have these amazing responses, then they go back and it's just him rambling on. He really is amazing. Such a great cast.

The Get Lucky montage

That was one of their funniest episodes

definitely. it is going to "darker places" though, i think, as neanderthal feared. i can't imagine how angry i would be at schmidt if i were nick or jess.

well that was great

Team Winston, kind of amazed they're just making him flat-out bananas and it isn't bothering me
