Who's That Girl? A New Girl Podcast

This podcast covers New Girl Season 4, Episode 5, Landline, which originally aired on October 14, 2014 and was written by Rob Rosell and directed by Trent O’Donnell.

Here’s a quick recap of the episode:

Because of some construction, the loft doesn’t have good cell reception. Jess’s answer to this is to get the loft a landline which prompts Nick to act as a secretary and Jess to find out about Coach’s relationships with their coworkers.

This episode got a 8/10 rating from Kritika whose favorite character was Nick and Kelly rated this episode a 8.5/10 and her favorite character was Coach!

While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:

• Blanche / Golden Girls - Coach called out Jess for commenting on his sleeping with other teachers and Coach said she was like the character Blanche from Golden Girls.
• War Games / Short Circuit - Nick told an elaborate story about why you shouldn’t trust technology and as the loft mates called out he likely stole that from the movie War Games or more likely Short Circuit.
• Splash - In response to listing out other movies, the loft shared that Splash was a good movie.
• Carson Daly - When Winston pretended to be Schmidt during the interview, he said the last book Schmidt read was Carson Daly’s biography.

Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 6!
