This podcast covers New Girl Season 3, Episode 16, Sister, which originally aired on February 11, 2014 and was directed by Max Winkler and written by Matt Fusfeld & Alex Cuthbertson. 

Here’s a quick recap of the episode:

Jess has to go pick up her sister and is desperate to keep Abby and Nick apart. Meanwhile, Bertie’s having a dinner that the whole loft is invited to and Schmidt tries to hook up with his rabbi’s daughter.

We discuss Pop Culture References such as:

Additional Pop Culture References such as:

  • Julia Child - In response to Nick saying he wanted to make a good impression for Abby, Schmidt said he wanted Julia Child not to be dead. Julia Child was an American cooking teacher, author, and television personality recognized for bringing French cuisine to the American public with her debut cookbook, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, and her television programs.
  • Sammy Davis Jr. - When Nick said he was a goofball, the Rabbi at the Bar Mitzvah said, “Sammy Davis Jr. Was a goofball. You, sir, are no Sammy Davis Jr.” Samuel “Sammy” Davis Jr. was an American singer, dancer, actor, comedian, film producer and television director. Among other aspects of his life, he was also part of the Rat Pack with Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, with whom he starred in several films.

For our Most Likely To segment, we discuss which one of us is most likely to show up unexpectedly to a family member’s place, make 10-11 soups for dinner, be a wingman, and order food to someone else’s room. We also cover the Shabbat-hello as our “Schmidtism” this episode.
