in quick hardening caulk (S2E19) when schmidt and winston are discussing where to find a lionfish, what do y’all think schmidt meant by “the source”? since he was surprised by winston saying the ocean — from previous dialogue I always assumed he wanted to do some “interspecies fish breeding” himself lol
Schmidt alone - "Gràpes, where are you grapes, we have you surrounded."
Coach - "green grape?->Officer doing home interview- "no thanks I already had my grapes"
Nick- "would you like a green grape shoved into your.., given to your mouth, handed to your mouth?"
I feel like a lot of shows try to do time jumps and it gets really messy but honestly, I like having a look into what their future was like after they moved out of the apartment and changed their lives and we kind of got to see them growing up into actual people. I thought is was a nice ending tbh.
Friends of mine are expecting their first baby and they’re obsessed with NG. Can you guys help me think of a cute quote from the show that would go well on a baby onesie or shirt? I’ve looked on Etsy and found some… but none that feel right lol
The long shirt, the pillow punch, and the reading light 🤣
episode two of me being high and watching new girl: i’ve just seen the jj watt episode in season four and i just about died laughing when he popped into the garage after jess and coach
“i’m looking for pete’s phone”
“so are we! did you sext him too??”
“no??? i fired him over text”
and then they started singing about hot dogs and pretzels?? 😭 i’m crying
It's the same neckline, same corset bodice with bling and same frills in the bottom part.
Or course, Sophie's is more extravagant, as you'd expect.
needed a pick me up today, so put on a random episode. This show will never not be hilarious to me 😭
I’m rewatching the show and genuinely so surprised at how much of the show is arguments and failings out, it seems to be 90% of the show. Does that change, it must do because it ain’t my memory of the show.
Sorry for gross haha
Season 5 Episode 7 “Wig”
maybe i'm biased but i feel like only the first few episodes were actually weird, like, after the fifth, it becomes entertaining as hell, i've read other peoples opinions on season 1 and was about to skip it before watching it, i'm SO so glad i did watch it because some episodes are so funny??? i either have crap humour or some people are too judgy.
Every single time I rewatch I feel so bad for Elizabeth. She was doing fine before Schmidt came back into her life, and then he did her SO. DIRTY. If Cece wasn't end game I would have really loved to watch this relationship flourish. I love how Schmidt is with her. That being said, when she finds out about Cece she says one of my favorite lines. "You broke my heart. Mail me my mouth guard."
So I recently had a falling out with my now former roommate. Soon there will be a new one moving in, this time a guy who seemed pretty chill, and as I’m rewatching new girl I’m starting to notice that I really want to have a dynamic like in the series. Not calculated tho, just warm and familiar. My bf once said that I want a family, not roommates, which i think is kinda true. What are ways to work towards a more-than-surface-level roommateship with this new guy? We are 4 people in the apartment, one is not home much and the other one is currently home until next year. I’m not very happy how this turned out, there was a brief moment where the apartment felt very lived-in and homey, atm I’m home alone most of the time.
It’s my first time watching New girl, and I’ve really been enjoying it! Definitely a show I shouldn’t have kept on the back burner for so long.
I’m halfway through season 3, and I’m just wondering if Coach is sticking around for the rest of the series? I just can’t seem to get around to liking him, he just doesn’t have that dynamic with the group and it throws everything off.
If he does stay, does his character grow or change? Does he get more likeable?
I don’t know, maybe it’s just me.
"Be nicer to Coach or he's gonna take off and live with another bunch of white people"
In Happy Endings, the show he left New Girl for after the pilot, he lives with another group of white friends.
He had to leave New Girl because he already signed a contract for Happy Endings and when the pilot got them 2 seasons, he had to go.
It makes sense that Coach came back because he liked the show from the beginning.
It's a throw away joke but I thought it was funny how self aware the joke was.

Am I the only one who prefers Raegan?
I just realized how insufferable Jess was when we got Raegan, she was so funny and smart.
The job really exists
Love this scene - and Nicks expressions 💀🤣
And New Girl is full of them. I'm convinced this is one I haven't noticed before:
Season 4, ep 17 Spider hunt, we're introduced to CeCe wanting a popcorn machine at the bar.
Season 5 ep 11 The Apartment, we meet Winston's new partner Dunston. Nick is giving Dunston directions to the bathroom and says, "It's just past the pop....nevermind..."
I'm 100% convinced he was about to say "the popcorn machine". Am I right or am I wrong? Please say I'm right.
in the beginning of season 1 we discover this painting in winston’s (schmidt’s old) closet. how does it all of a sudden end up as a mural on winston’s actual bedroom wall? i’ve watched so many times and it’s never addressed… am i missing something or just one of those things they changed without addressing??
I am aware that the loft was intended to be in Los Angeles, that the show was produced out of and filmed in Los Angeles, and that this observation is entirely my brain being weird — but weirdly, the show felt like it took place in New York, or at least as if it was filmed there.
In fact, when the show did their crossover with Brooklyn Nine Nine, a show which is supposed to take place in Brooklyn, New York, but very clearly is not filmed in New York, those scenes looked more like they were in LA than scenes from New Girl typically look to me.
I assume the reason that New Girl’s lighting looks far more natural than the type of lighting in Brooklyn Nine Nine, and so while every set on B99 looks like a set, New Girl looked like it was filmed on location, even though both shows used studio sets.
B99 also tends to have a lot of its scenes in early and mid afternoon, while New Girl’s story often took place after the normal work hours, so while B99’s outdoor scenes were saturated with bright Los Angeles sun, New Girl’s outdoor scenes were often during night.
Though even day time outdoor scenes on New Girl seemed to have better lighting. So it might just be that B99 had shitty lighting .

"They have those?" - Nick (and his face)
