New Girl Review: "Pepperwood" (Episode 2.14)

By Ross Bonaime at 3:46 PM on January 23, 2013

It is sometimes nice to just watch these five people go on weird adventures that don’t really have any basis in the continual story of the show. There’s no mention of relationships or curiosity as to the future of their lives, just a weird mystery and Schmidt’s toenails. While it is enjoyable to see an episode where these characters just act insane, that lack of story in the larger picture does bring some disappointment, even if the episode is a lot of fun and hilarious still.   read more

Ben and Kate Review: "Bake Off" (Episode 1.13)

By Ross Bonaime at 3:03 PM on January 23, 2013

With the unfortunate Tommy aside, “Bake Off” gives each of the characters a way to spotlight their unique gifts they bring to the show. If only Tommy could join in on the fun in a more substantial way, “Bake Off” would have been one of Ben and Kate’s most solidly rounded episodes to date.  read more

New Girl Review: "A Father's Love" (Episode 2.13)

By Ross Bonaime at 5:47 PM on January 16, 2013

In the first season of New Girl, the show laid down the elements of who these characters are, their intricacies and quirks. We learned so much about who they are, but not why they are the way they are. But this second season, New Girl has started to unravel each character as explanations why they act they way they do. First we met Jess’ parents and Schmidt’s brother and we’ve heard hints about Cece’s mother and her traditions, but now it’s Nick’s turn. Nick has so much anger, lazy attitude and a downright dislike for anything breathing, so what could make such a man this way? With “A Father’s Love,” we get to see the father that helped make Nick the man he is today.  read more
