I mean, EIGHT sneak peeks? That's like the most they've ever released!

Maybe to get more buzz going???

That's MY issue with it. It's ridiculous.

After the kiss, fans are already SUPER EXCITED about the next episode. A simple promo and a few TINY sneak peeks would have been enough!!!

Hi guys

I love the thread title! ♥

I do not understand why so many scenes FOX advancement issues, the episode lasts 21 minutes between scenes promos and practically give it all ... should take care with that!

Jake & Zooey talk Nick/Jess (minor spoilers towards the end!)



And this:



Q: Are Nick and Jess the new Ross and Rachel?
ZOOEY: I can't aspire to such heights.
JAKE: You know what I actually think they are? I think they are the Nick and Jess.
ZOOEY: Nick and Jess are the new Nick and Jess.
JAKE: Yeah. Well, Ross and Rachel, that was from 'Friends', obviously.
ZOOEY: Yeah, we love Ross and Rachel.

And I love you guys for loving Ross and Rachel.

Personally, I don't want them to be Ross and Rachel. I would rather have them be more like Monica and Chandler-way more stability. But they're right-they're just "Nick and Jess" and that's why we love them!


As for tonight (yay!) I would love it if when Jess tells Cece about the kiss, we get a callback to season 1 where Cece says something like, "Well I did tell you that Nick was into you."

Totally agree, I love being Nick and Jess, I've never seen such a perfect couple.

That desire to see the new episode . Cece saw from episode 5!

The episode isn't even half an hour! It's like 21 minutes!

So stupid!

I kind of see Nick and Jess having qualities of both Ross/Rachel and Monica/Chandler. Ultimately though Nick and Jess are their own selves and are amazing in their own right. They're not like anything else, it's something new and exciting which belongs to them...I don't want another carbon copy, they should stay true to themselves and their own story and dynamics...

That being said that stability and suspenseful will they won't they aspects from friends, I would be happy to see woven in through Nick and Jess's relationship and development. It's flattering to hear them compared to such popular couples, but Nick and Jess are amazing in their own right!

I love how Cece has always seen it and shipped them. Her reaction like Schmidts faint last week, is a perfect representation of our mental state and fan girl behaviour!

Aww... I love them too for loving Ross and Rachel!
I think the comparison with Ross and Rachel doesn't really have anything to do with similarities between the two couples (because come on, "Could they BE any more different?" ) but with the concept of OTP. "Friends" is by many considered one of the greatest sitcom ever (for me, it's the number one ) and when it came out Ross and Rachel became the epitome of the One True Pairing. IIRC their first kiss also reached highest ranks on the '100 all time greatest moments of tv', hence they're basically pop culture by now. I mean, even drama show writers are sometimes asked if the couple on that show it's their "Ross and Rachel".
In this specific case the question comes out more often for several reasons, IMHO. Because Nick and Jess are clearly the main OTP of the show. Because the show it's a comedy. Because Nick and Jess have potential to become as popular as Ross and Rachel were, even though their development is definitively more similar to Chandler and Monica's build up. Because, when "Friends" ended, fans felt like orphans since making a brilliant comedy show is apparently far more complicated than a drama and "New Girl" is one of the these rare instances (the only other sitcom that I find entertaining is "How I Met Your Mother"). Because current comedies writers learnt a lot from "Friends" ones. I could go on, but I think you got my point.

As for the sneak peeks, I decided to skip them all. I mean really, why on earth does FOX release the whole episode? It's like watching a movie and realizing that the best scenes were already in the trailer.

Let's just hope they saved the best for last (that means I hope there are still Nick/Jess juicy scenes that haven't been shown yet).

Well, for me, I am not worried with the spoilers ONLINE affecting the show's rating. Majority of TV watchers, they don't spend that much time online, or search on-line for spoilers. I think its really a small minority of us RABID fans that search the net for spoilers. Most of those numbers that view the online spoilers are from different countries, that's how popular New Girl is. I was one of them, the first season, I watched it only online, since it was not available to where I was last year. I have 4 friends here that is an avid fan of the show, but they are spoiler free, since they not as rabid as me, wanting to be spoiled and such, hehe!!

Plus, we are a great example of those dedicated fans that even if we have watched almost the entirety of the show through spoiler-y previews, we are still going to watch the actual airing, hehe!

Hi! I asked to be added some days ago but I don't think I was.
I'm worried too about all those sneak peek but i think that there will be something important 'cause otherwise I don't think they would put so much online before the episode.

I love this picture, i love the way she puts her arms around his neck. If you watch that moment it seems so simple, so natural, like she's used to do that. They fit so perfectly.

There's been so many new posters since the kiss, I think people got lost in translation! It's difficult for the mods to keep track!

I'll add you now Laura!
