We're releasing this episode before American and Canadian Thanksgiving but we hope you enjoy it nevertheless. That's right: it's time to discuss New Girl's second Thanksgiving episode, "Parents."
Jenn is joined by Jaime (@elspunko) and returning friend and journalist Alicia (@AliciaGilstorf) to talk all about this guest star-centered holiday episode! The group talks about the loft's unsuccessful Thanksgivings, Schmidt trying to prove himself to his cousin (guest star Rob Riggle), and the fact that Jess attempts to enact a Parent Trap scheme on her divorced parents (guest stars Rob Reiner and Jamie Lee Curtis) ... not for the first time.
Enjoy, all!

Welcome back to another installment of our Tragically Cancelled TV series! This week's topic is extra painful since this show was initially renewed but then cancelled. It's time to talk all about Netflix's GLOW!
Jenn is joined by her friends: host of Female Gaze: The Film Club, Morgan (@mslroberts), and TV Guide senior editor Kelly (@_kellyq) to discuss what made this show so special, intersectionality in storytelling, representation, an incredibly talented supporting cast, how much they all adore Betty Gilpin and Alison Brie, and how the show navigated a variety of topics and tones.
Enjoy, all!

It's only three episodes into the second season of New Girl, but we've already hit such a big Nick/Jess episode: "Fluffer"!
Jenn and Jaime (@elspunko) have returned to discuss Schmidt's feelings about his relationship with his father, a story involving Winston and Shelby (remember Shelby?!), and a Nick/Jess story that highlights the messy line between their friendship and something more. Hmm, wonder if that is foreshadowing anything this season... 🤔
Enjoy the episode, everyone!
