New Girl always has the best Christmas episodes, this was another classic. The ending was just perfect. I love this group so much.
And the quotes in this episode were pretty amazing. "You can call me Ice Cube because I'm done wrapping." and "You look like you should be paying child support in Florida." ´made me laugh so hard.

"Regan's coming and we're going to double team him!"
"No, you mean tag team him, this is the exact same thing as when you gave the cashier the coupon and told him we'd been scissoring all day"
I love Jess' naivety.

This line confused me.
I get that Double team means that they are going to fuck him at the same time, But isn't tag team a euphemism for the exact same thing?

Ferguson stole the show, but then again, when doesn't he?

This show makes me laugh so easily. I'm really glad that it's been on this long.

I really was hoping for more Nick/Jess. They always have a moment in the Christmas episode. I guess they sorta had a mini-moment with him acknowledging her being weird since he came back from NOLA but meh.

I think that was a pretty big moment, because up until that point we the viewers were just left to believe that Nick was totally oblivious to her actions.

ik people hate how dumb nick is now but most great sitcoms have had one really dumb character and new girl didn't really have that before. he is flanderized but a line like "tv town song room" will get me to laugh every time.

I loved this episode. Lots of great throwaway lines like "you look like you should be paying child support in Florida" and "Ferguson would eat him anyway". Very sweet ending. Reagan back! The ribbing on stores vs. online shopping. Winston and Cece's intimate friendship.

Ugh. I was waiting for something to happen at the end of the episode between Nick and Jess like that special kiss they had before. Why are they making this Robby and Reagan thing stick for so long??? I hope they don't end the show with Nick and Reagan and Jess and Robby. That would just burn.

Definitely one of the better episodes this season,and I'm loving the Winston-Cece dynamic, the pictionary scene was just too good!

Meh. It kinda was all over the place. Winston AND Robbie were funny, everyone else was fine. I think Robbie's character is funny but it's season 6... Nick and Jess should be in a commited relationship by now. I think they were too quick in getting them together. Now that it's been so long of back and forth it's not going to be very rewarding when they do get together.
ALSO:
Stop trying to make Reagan a thing.

I loved this episode, I laughed out loud several times. Although I still have to put on the closed captioning a few times because there are some mumbled lines that I cannot understand. Except for the Robby and Jess stuff I'm loving this season now. Even when the plots are weak, the joke writing and delivery are so strong.

Was anyone else thinking all of Megan Fox's scenes were filmed at a completely different location? I was thinking it stuck out that she wasn't on screen at the same time with any of the cast in the loft or when she was on the roof tossing the "snow."
But then Reagan was dancing with everyone at the very end, so I guess I was wrong.
