It's all dresses and bangs and awkward attractive people.

Utopia.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Thank you. Was thinking of doing this as well since no one else jumped on it yet.

And to those that havent seen it, Schmidt's book is out now.

Some great stuff in there.

 

[Nlroh]

Finally. I need my weekly Zooey fix.

 

[Chamber]

Those ugly posters just reminded me how much I dislike Nick.

 

[Shadow780]

Woot can't wait!

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Those ugly posters just reminded me how much I dislike Nick.

Go collect your tears in a jar. Nick is awesome.

But I can see why people hate him.

Also, WTF at the DVD coming out a week after the show starts back? Odd. I was impatient and bought it off iTunes the other week and marathoned it. Picked up on so many things I never saw or heard the first time.

Woot can't wait!

Now GIF the unwanted high five Nick gives the landlord at the end of the scene.

 

[giga]

Finally. I need my weekly Cece fix.

Someone mention Cece?

 

[freshair]

I find it unreal how quick of a turn around this show went from "look at this quirky this girl is in this funny situation!" into something that is genuinely funny with clever writing.

That being said, I hope they they expand on Winston's character because I feel like he's not really doing anything and is just "there".

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

And to those that havent seen it, Schmidt's book is out now.

Some great stuff in there.

I'm about halfway through it. It's slaying me. Schmidt is such a standout character.

Max Greenfield really deserves his Emmy nomination.

All I can find on Youtube is a shitty off-cam vid of that scene

Landlord episode and Meep Meep are my favorites from last season, My anus almost burst from laughing so hard.

 

[Hot Coldman]

I'm still amazed this show not only turned into something good after a fucking awful beginning, but also managed to become pretty loveable. Can't wait for the premiere.

 

[SJRB]

Is this the show where one of the Wayan's brothers was in the original pilot?

 

[Chamber]

Is this the show where one of the Wayan's brothers was in the original pilot?

He's a Wayan's son but yes.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Is this the show where one of the Wayan's brothers was in the original pilot?

Yeah, he was the best bit of the pilot. The guy who replaced him turns out to be great, though.

 

[Jitters]

<3

One of my faves from the book:
"Because of the high sugar content of my semen, I can't date diabetic women."

 

[Judderman]

*runs up wall*

Parkour!

 

[Acid08]

I love this show. I was ashamed at first but I have moved past that.

Schmidt is the greatest.

 

[SJRB]

Yeah, he was the best bit of the pilot. The guy who replaced him turns out to be great, though.

Haha I thought he was great as well. I accidentally stumbled upon the pilot while flicking channels and he was easily my favourite character.

So when I found out he was gone the second episode I kind of stopped watching the show alltogether.

 

[entremet]

My favorite show on TV right now. Love me some, Cece. I hear she's getting more air time.

 

[Radec]

New Girl - Season 2 |OT| Came to see Zoey, Stayed because of Schmidt.

New Girl - Season 2 |OT| Came to see Zoey, Stayed because of Schmidt.

This right here. Schmidt is one of the greatest characters on TV.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

New Girl - Season 2 |OT| Came to see Zoey, Stayed because of Schmidt.

If I had made the OP I would have called it that or "Schmidt Happens."

 

[xxracerxx]

Needs more Nadja and Schmidt.

 

[giga]

Heads up, this is in 3 hours!

 

[raindoc]

New Girl - Season 2 |OT| Came to see Zoey, Stayed because of Schmidt.

exactly.

 

[adelante]

Can't wait!!

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

New Girl - Season 2 |OT| Came to see Zoey, Stayed because of Schmidt.

This was me in a nutshell. Fell out of the show due to scheduling conflicts but I'm lookin forward to seeing the premiere tonight

 

[[KoRp]Jazzman]

God I cant believe how excited I am to see this tonight since i was so dismissive of it before it aired last year.

Schmidt is one of the best written comedy characters on TV right now.

 

[Baby Milo]

mmmm cece

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

PhoncipleBone is the only person showing Nick love in here.

Nick is a great character, especially when he gets a little insane.

 

[ivysaur12]

The show still has a ton of work to do re: Winston, even CeCe, but I'm happy it's back. Kinda weird that I'll be watching Go On, New Girl, and Happy Endings. Haven't had a time slot battle that bad in a while.

 

[mescalineeyes]

New Girl - Season 2 |OT| Came to see Zoey, Stayed for Schmidt.

FTFY

but yes, this is it!

genuine question: how do you watch so many shows? do you work in the field? I always read your name in these topics and you are mentioned in the Fall Season thread a few times.
And: Why do I think that you are 19, 20 or something? is that correct?

 

[GusBus]

Wooh! Can't wait. Such a delightful show with really well done characters. The writing is icing on the cake.

I actually watch fairly few shows these days, I just happen to love Happy Endings, like New Girl a lot, and enjoy what's I've seen so far of Go On.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

I watch quite a few shows and keep up with them. I just don't post in as many threads. And many of the shows don't really get much discussion in GAF either.

 

[Redux]

Don't see how anyone finds Zooey Deschanel humorous. All she does is talk in a condescending tone, and try to be "quirky."

so did you watch season one?

 

[Redux]

so did you watch season one?

Yes, and I liked it *gasp* -_-

 

[The Real Abed]

Cannot wait! This was my favorite show last season besides Community. So excited.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Looking forward to more Schmidt hijinxs. Next year's best supporting actor in a comedy.

 

[Guzim]

Nick really grew on me. He's great when he's extremely pathetic.

"Be optimistic. Learn. We’re all gonna die alone, so..."

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Is it just me, or do Zooey's lips look puffier than usual?

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

Winston getting "naughty," holy shit!

 

[Judderman]

Winston has had so many giffable moments this episode.

"Fire!"

 

[Guzim]

"Hey look Cece... Fire!"

 

[Retrocide]

Oh...how I've missed this show. Schmidt not winning the Emmy is such a crime.

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

Yeah, can't believe they gave it to Cryer. Schmidt is definitely a scene stealer
