New Girl: "Prince" Review

February 2, 2014

Warning: Fullspoilers from the episode to follow.

New Girl's post-Super Bowl episode was a biggie for Nick and Jess, as they finally reached that inevitable point in their relationship where one of them professed their love for the other. It's a storyline we've seen a bajillion times on TV, and usually it goes something like, "I love you!" "...Thank you?" Indeed, some fans might have been a little weary going through that whole song-and-dance again, this time with Nick and Jess.To its credit, though, New Girl opted out of the usual gimmick and went with something slightly different: finger guns! Oh, and a certain someone namedPrince.

While the whole Prince party/"I love you" setup felt sort of contrived, it nevertheless made for some amusing moments -- for instance, the fact that Schmidt automatically thought he was invited to the party and went out and bought a $2,000 suit in hopes of meeting cooler friends. Also kinda funny was Coach's obvious plug for his Ford Fusion. But the greatest bit was saved for Coach and Winston, who resurrected "Fire and Ice," an old play that they used to run to get into clubs and parties; but Nick's "Ham and Cheese" equivalent was a close second, as he hung Schmidt out to dry. ("I'm Trojan Horsing! I found a bunch of models. Every man for himself!")

The fun and games continued once everyone got inside the party. It was good to see that Schmidt and Cece appear to be getting even closer -- both emotionally and physically. ("It's always good to see old friends.") I especially enjoyed Schmidt going the extra mile with the lemon game by actually eating the lemon. ("That's not even the game!")Another fun moment came when Nick drunkenly interrupted Fire and Ice from macking on Alessandra Ambrosio and Ana Beatriz Barros.

"I never thought I'd say this, but... I need to be alone with Prince."

Of course, the big draw of this week's episode was Prince himself, and in that regard there was certainly no shortage of Prince or his Prince-isms. In particular, it was Nick and Jess's reaction to meeting Prince that got the biggest laugh from me, specifically Nick's uncontrollable screams of disbelief.

As for Prince's love guru schtick with Jess, it seemed pretty random that Prince would, for any reason, take an interest in Jess's personal problems over anybody else's at the party. Moreover, the montage of whimsical love training was more just ridiculous than actually funny -- Jess's new clothes, ping pong and the CG butterfly, to name a few examples. Thankfully, Prince was, well... justPrince enough to make it work ("So, do you like pancakes?") -- though Jess singing at the end might have been pushing it.

It did help that afterwards the gang openly talked about crazy and weird the night was, with Coach postulating, "Did... that... happen?" and Schmidt quietly adding, "Where do we go from here? Do I just go to work tomorrow?" It's true, parts of "Prince" felt like a bit of a stretch, even by New Girl's standards, but it did make the painful process of Nick and Jess declaring their love for each other moderately more entertaining that it otherwise would have been. As far as "I love you" episodes go, this one was definitely memorable, if not wholly original.

Ellen Got Sick And Had Ellie Kemper Host On Short Notice, Adorableness Ensued

I dont want to alarm you so early in the morning, but Ellen DeGeneres is sick. I know it sounds impossible, but apparently even angels can get the sniffles. Ellen has come down with the flu, so either she subjected her producer Andy Lassner to an on-air flu shot last week and didnt get one herself, or it just didnt kick in in time. Despite what you might assume, Im not a doctor, so I cant explain Ellens illness to you. What I can explain is that she had to call in sick for yesterdays taping and get her first-ever guest host to fill in. And she got just about the best host she could get, besides Tina and Amy, who should host everything. She got Ellie Kemper!

Ellies become a bit of a staple on Ellens show, just showing up to attend DJ school or wrap Christmas gifts at the mall, and every time she reaches through the screen and steals my heart. She just seems like the sweetest, most fun person to hang out with, so obviously shes the perfect choice to fill in for Ellen, who also has those qualities, with an added intimidating quality because ohmygod its Ellen!

Ellies opening monologue is just as gosh darn adorable as youd expect it to be. She even admits that shes adorable herself, but in the most adorable way. She also spends the first minute or so looking into the wrong camera and then confesses she has no idea what shes doing. You can tell that shes nervous, but in the most relatable way. Like not in the way that makes you want to crawl under the covers in embarrassment, but in the way that makes you smile and want to hug her. So while no one could possibly replace Ellen in our hearts, Im totally cool with Ellie being her understudy. Like she says herself, they should totally have those for talk show hosts. Sometimes even Ellen needs a break.

Ellies episode of Elllen airs today.
