S4 E15 - The Crawl

This podcast covers New Girl Season 4, Episode 15, The Crawl, which originally aired on February 10, 2015 and was written by Kim Rosenstock and directed by Jay Chandrasekhar. 

Here’s a quick recap of the episode:

After his breakup with Kai, Nick wants to complete a bar crawl with all his friends… on Valentine’s Day. All had other plans – Jess with Ryan, Schmidt with Fawn, and Winston on call for work – but they all end up going to the Bar Crawl. 

This episode got a 8.5/10 rating from Kritika and 9.5/10 from Kelly and we both had the same favorite character: Winston!

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

• Elijah Wood - When sharing a job option for Ryan, Winston shared that he heard “Elijah Wood's looking for a stunt double.”
• [E.L. Fudge Keebler Cookies] - This reference was by Winston about Ryan saying, “Get back in that tree and make me some cookies”, which resembles how the mascots on the Keebler cookies make the cookies.
• Krumping - Schmidt noted that he “even krumped at that anti-gang initiative” for Dawn.
• The Walking Dead - Nick shared that sometimes Jess didn’t hear him with all her hair, like when she didn’t respond after asking her what she thought about his “Walking Dead fanfiction”
• The Temptations - “My Girl" -  The tune of this song was sang by Winston and Nick during the karaoke bar, but instead of “My Girl” they sang “Bar Crawl”.
• The Wright Brothers - Winston thought sparks were “flying like the Wright Brothers” between Cece and Schmidt.
• Tom Colicchio - The bartender Mike thought Nick wasn’t going to make it to the last bar on the bar crawl and that he himself would never ride a jet ski with Tom Colicchio.
• Mary Poppins - Schmidt said Winston is like a Black Mary Poppins.

Additionally we mentioned in our podcast episode a site with some notes by Cathy Guise, the creator of the comic Strip “Cathy”.

Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 16!
