New Girl – especially when it started – was one of the best sitcoms NBC produced. And although it went through quite a few ups and downs through the years, there have been some really memorable episodes and more than a few spectacular moments which went on to define the show.
Jess – played by Zooey Deschanel is the main protagonists. But her new roommates and eventual friends – Nick, Schmidt, Winston and Coach – along with Jess’ best friend Cece, made the show an absolute gem to watch. The whole feel good vibe of the show was always maintained.
And with 5 seasons of running the show, its difficult to choose an episode that probably topped the list; but somehow we found it! the 6th episode of Season 4 – “Background Check” is without a doubt one of the best episodes the show has ever produced. And here are the reasons why:
-
Winston Needs Help, But Coach Doesn’t Really Care
We start the episode with a simple enough request. Too bad people are a little busy!
-
The Fish We Thought We’d Get
Tess Dorado the fish, who pairs very nicely with citrus, you oaf!

Jess’ Own Reason

It ain’t a cycle; it a whole roller coaster!
