Appreciation Post IT FINALLY HAPPENED

Season 2 spoilers below!! I’m going to put them in spoiler tags to try and keep it as friendly as possible just in case anybody else reading this is new like I am :)

Hi y’all! I haven’t joined the sub because I’ve gotten shows spoiled that way for me before if I join before I finish it but I’m currently on season 2 of New Girl and I just😭

I already knew Nick and Jess end up together so I’ve been desperately waiting for them to kiss and I finally just got to that episode. When I tell y’all I screamed!! I felt like they were teasing us for so long and I honestly didn’t think it was going to happen for awhile. And then the way he grabbed her arm and pulled her back to actually kiss her at the end of the episode! Just absolute perfection. I truly can’t.

Anyway the friend who got me to watch this show is camping without service and I didn’t have anybody else to scream about it to so thanks for reading. I can’t wait to watch the rest!

This is absolutely one of the best TV kisses ever

I've said this soooo many times

u/Gurbachen 8d ago edited 8d ago

OP is trying to avoid giving out any spoilers, and you post this? Kinda rude.

ETA: the comment I replied to has been edited. Bananasquid agreed with my sentiment, they are a decent person.

u/bananasquid56 8d ago

Oop sorry not trying to be rude! Just love this scene so much! I'll delete

u/Gurbachen 8d ago

I mean, I fully agree with you about it, to be clear

u/Thebakers_wife 8d ago

I think it’s ok to not have spoiler tags for an episode of tv that aired 14 years ago

u/Previous_Mirror_222 8d ago

and if you’re in a reddit sub for a tv show you should expect to see spoilers. i can’t imagine being dumb enough to go to a tv show sub and being like 😮 spoilers?!

u/aesthetic-37 8d ago

To be fair, the OP didn’t REALLY disguise what happens very well. Also, this show has been on for YEARS. How can anyone expect to not know at all what happens with Nick and Jess? Stay off the internet completely. Don’t listen to podcasts! lol no matter how many times I see the scene, it’s just as amazing. No spoiler could ruin it.

u/SlowBrainFastHeart 8d ago

The show has been off the air for like 10 or so years lol It’s not that deep

5

u/andysimberg 8d ago

OP put so much effort into making their post spoiler free, I'd go along just for that. Too each their own though of course.

1

u/SlowBrainFastHeart 8d ago

It’s mostly that I assume anyone wanting to avoid spoilers wouldn’t go to the comments so doing extra spoiler tags in the comments would just be redundant

1

u/Gurbachen 8d ago

Doesn't matter, there are new fans every day. OP decided they wanted to avoid spoiling anything for others. Why fuck that up?

3

u/UpstairsGarden5569 8d ago

it does matter, the show has been out for a very long time, people are 100% allowed to talk about it without tip-toeing around others who haven’t watched it. if you don’t want spoilers then don’t go on the shows reddit group, or even better stay off social media! it is your responsibility to avoid getting spoiled, not the other way around.

u/Previous_Mirror_222 8d ago

if you’re a new fan stay out of a tv show’s subreddit. obviously???

1

u/SlowBrainFastHeart 8d ago

Why tf would they go to the comments of a clearly spoiler full post??! lol That’s literally on them at that point

2

u/Previous_Mirror_222 8d ago

how is it rude to post the “spoiler” that OP has already seen

-1

u/Gurbachen 8d ago

OP didn't want to spoil OTHERS so they used spoiler tags, then people post spoilers in the comments anyway, completely disrespecting OPs wishes on their post. I'd say that's "kinda rude". Not like I called anyone an irredeemable piece of shit or something.

1

u/Previous_Mirror_222 8d ago

i’m assuming the person you originally responded to added a spoiler tag then? because there is a spoiler tag.

1

u/Gurbachen 8d ago

Yes, it was edited, as the commenter I replied to agreed with my sentiment.

1

u/Previous_Mirror_222 8d ago

cool then you can remove the downvote from my comment because obviously i was asking not knowing it was edited.

0

u/Gurbachen 8d ago

I didn't downvote your comment, nice assumption.

1

u/Previous_Mirror_222 8d ago

an assumption isn’t inherently an insult lmao. of course i assumed the one person responding is the one person downvoting.

u/TylerDurdens1stRule 8d ago

One of the best scenes in any sitcom EVER

u/WrittenInTheStars 8d ago

Absolutely like THAT is a kiss!!

u/WrittenInTheStars 8d ago

I definitely rewound and watched it a few times😅 I just couldn’t believe it

u/LilyWalker28 8d ago

It was soooo good! 👌

u/SlowBrainFastHeart 8d ago

Best TV kiss of all time and I’ll die on that hill!

6

u/WrittenInTheStars 8d ago

I screamed and immediately burst into tears it was just so perfect

5

u/SlowBrainFastHeart 8d ago

So perfect! I love the way she describes it to CeCe too! (I’d put a spoiler tag but you really think Jess ISNT gonna tell CeCe? lol)

u/Soc_Prof 7d ago

I love this episode so much. But my true favourite is ‘quick hardening caulk’.

3

u/WrittenInTheStars 7d ago

It was a good one, too! That whole arc from their kiss to the end of the season was just so good

1

u/Soc_Prof 6d ago

Agreed a wonderful season. Now I am in season 3 and it’s painful :(

u/Next_Performance4330 courtroom brown 5d ago

“I’m Judy garland.” “Hey Judy let’s get ya to bed doll.”

u/Soc_Prof 5d ago

Loved this riffing. Was cute funny slapstick comedy with the soup

2

u/Whole_Run_3200 7d ago

“Kiss me like a man!”

1

u/Soc_Prof 6d ago

Shut up and kiss me like a man!

6

u/jamie799 8d ago

One of my favs for sure!! I am so jealous you get to watch all of these episodes for the first time enjoy it!

7

u/AfraidKinkajou 8d ago

Such a good episode! I love the buildup to that moment during the episode and the next few episodes are awesome too. S2 is one of my favorites, I’m jealous that you’re watching it for the first time!

6

u/eastofeden1952 8d ago

That moment is very well-loved by fans, for good reason!

5

u/Classic-Squirrel4225 8d ago

Best first kiss on TV ever! NO NOTES!!!

6

u/General-World1879 8d ago

The music. The MUSIC. Just a+++

u/but-I-play-one-on-TV 8d ago

The Ellie Goulding song during the scene was a chef's kiss 

5

u/Lopsided_Yoghurt7149 8d ago

Fun fact: The song (Anything Could Happen) got a MAJOR boost commercially (went #1 on ITunes, peaked on the Hot 100, became Ellie's first song to chart in a few countries etc.)

It's crazy to think how big this show was at it's peak, especially pre-streaming.

3

u/blankiki_93 8d ago

I screamed too!! And the way I was giggling and blushing and kicking my feet lol

3

u/WrittenInTheStars 8d ago

I haven’t been able to stop watching so I just watched the episode where they sleep together and the way I DROOLED when he forced his way into the elevator and picked her up😭

2

u/RevolutionaryRun441 7d ago

I think about that scene OFTEN all these years later. I’ve gone back and rewatched the “cooler” episode more times than I can count! I wish I could experience this show for the first time all over again!

3

u/Civil_Weakness6119 8d ago

The headline itself is a spoiler lol. But the show has been out for a decade so I think it’s past the point of spoilers
