New Girl Things
"I don’t know if I would say they’re in a relationship. It feels more undecided to me. They’re not calling it off, but they’re not NOT calling it off. It leaves a fair amount open for next season. The thing about Nick and Jess being together is, it opens up a lot of storylines. These are two flawed human beings, and who knows what’s going to happen with them really? I think for sure there are a lot of comedic possibilities in their relationship. I love that people get invested in the characters and especially on a TV show, because they actually see things pan out and see the ebb and flow [of a relationship], rather than like in a movie where the end is the end. I am incredibly attached to these characters and invested in them."

"[The kiss] was, literally, the last thing we shot in 2012. We shot it right before Christmas break, and I went down to the set and there were butterflies in my stomach. I felt like the show was on the line—like, if this scene doesn’t work, this show is done. [Laughs.] Potentially overstating it, it’s the kind of thing where you do everything you can, but it’s in the hands of the actors and you’re like, “I hope this works.” We had this fried-food truck and there was this plate of fried food, and I just felt like this creepy woman behind the monitor eating this fried chicken and getting ready for them to kiss. The first take they did, it was amazing and they yelled “Cut!” and the entire crew was clapping, and it went from being the most terrifying moment to this joy, and I was like, “This was amazing. This is what we should be doing.” It felt like a whole new thing, a whole new road to go down."

"It’s one of the most ambitious, incredible, beautiful, and hysterical episodes we have ever shot in two seasons, and I cannot wait for people to see it."

"The scene is, I walk in carrying Zooey, we have a moment, and then we go to bed. As a man, that’s an easy thing to do — just carry a woman to bed, fantastic. That’s what you do. By the fifteenth take… you know, I’m not a man of steel! My arms were getting a little bit noodly. You don’t want to say, ‘Can we speed this up?’ I’m carrying Zooey Deschanel — there’s a lot of guys who’d kill for this moment. By the end of the night I was just throwing her on the bed. Once we were out of frame, I’d just be, like, ‘Get off of me, woman!’"

"These fifteen year old kids don’t realise how much influence they have, because they’ll say what they like, and they’ll say like ‘Nick it’s better when you do this rather than that’ and I’ll read it like whatever, who cares? I don’t care about you, you’re fifteen. Then I’m on the show and Meriwether will be like ‘Just improvise this one’ and I’ll hear ‘It’s better when you do this…’ That damn kids in my head man!"

"This is probably the most, like, woman-y thing that I’m going to say: It’s so emotional to me just having other writers connect to the show, and become passionate about the characters, and watch people have fights about the characters. TV is something that you create in your head, and you write the pilot, and it’s yours. It’s really cool to kind of watch as the characters become so many other people’s, as they belong to other writers."

I brake for birds. I rock a lot of polka dots. I have touched glitter in the last 24 hours. I spend my entire day talking to children, and I find it fundamentally strange that you’re not a dessert person, that’s just weird and it freaks me out! And I’m sorry I don’t talk like Murphy Brown, and I hate your pant suit, I wish it had ribbons on it or something to make it just slightly cuter. And that doesn’t mean I’m not smart, and tough, and strong! And my checks have baby farm animals on them, bitch!
