No, I think you're being fair, E -- I'm OK with images in general at work, but I never open the WS thread here.

Grady, it looks complete garbage, c'mon. That's why I said I was surprised! Don't be a jerk.
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 18:45 (twelve years ago) link
haha i sympathized with yr post cuz its a lot less garbage than it looks like it would be like instead of being actively bad its just mostly not funnie and lazy

x-posts You too, Jon.
Thank you, Lamp. Everything about it looks like it would be painful to watch but, like I said, I'm willing to suspend disbelief and give it a shot.

I have seen the show twice: once b/c a girl who was in an improv class I took 3 yrs ago had a small role in it (she was one of the bell ringers) and then the most recent ep, b/c I heard it was self-aware abt Zooey's image. Both eps were funnier than I expected but also not really essential.

i havent seen any of the nu-era new girl episodes i saw one abt a wedding and one that was the pilot and one abt finding a dead body or s.thing
― BJ O (Lamp), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 18:49 (twelve years ago) link
Mostly I'm just not a big sitcom person these days. This better be good now.
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 18:50 (twelve years ago) link
I get dismissing it out of hand, I did too until my wife made me watch a couple episodes with her. It was just the part about being "aghast" that someone would like it was kinda nagl when you hadn't seen it yourself.
― Gonjasufjanstephen O'Malley (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 18:50 (twelve years ago) link
I was about to be all "... dead body?" but then I remembered, that was the Thanksgiving episode

Admittedly that was a pretty strong word but I was genuinely surprised! I was just being honest. Also, I would not go around ILX calling people out for posting things that might not be AGL if I were you. Just saying.

yeah i mean...pretty much nobody defending the show right now really WANTS to or was rooting for it to be good itt last fall. i feel like that kind of grudging, hard won appreciation should be given the benefit of the doubt.

JonChi, of course you can post around me - I often like your posts. I just wouldn't get snippy with me because, as we all know since you so astutely pointed it out, I can be a total bitch.
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 19:04 (twelve years ago) link
That's the first picture I've ever seen of her that makes her look semi-cute.-- Squirrel_Police
Although she looks way older than she is. I'll buy the alcoholic thing on that basis alone.
-- Squirrel_Police
I must assume you're joking.
-- Johnny Fever
she probably doesn't want to be fancied by someone wearing a little police uniform with acorns embroidered on it.

x-post - OK that was sort of bitchy. I'm just in a shitty mood and maybe that wasn't called for. I will watch the damn show and report back. Since the recent ones are better can I just watch those? I mean, I won't be lost or anything, right?
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 19:06 (twelve years ago) link
It wasn't meant to be "snippy", I was just quoting what I thought was a funny way to word that, like you immediately undercut your own argument with that next sentence.
― Gonjasufjanstephen O'Malley (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 19:07 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, no I get that. Like I said - I'm probably prone to overeating right now. Sorry.

yeah it's a definitely a trad sitcom in that any episode works as a standalone, not really any long term plot to worry about
