This whole episode is kind of like a walk of shame, of sorts. Everyone's looped outta their minds. Metaphorical stumbling in heels. Hair looks great. Could use more singing about woodland creatures. Fond memories of Josh Gad and Jeremy Long appear like sugarplum fairies. Wait, am I looped, too?? Aren't we all??

Quite the throwback!

Attention all Jar Men and Smushers: arachnophobia is no laughing matter. Except - well - see, there's a real classic mess around in this podcast episode that makes even the arachnophobe writing this paragraph cackle. Also arachnophobia is a laughing matter when it involves Schmidt, of course. So the original statement is true, but there are loopholes. Such is life! God this is such a good episode (New Girl 417 AND the pod).

If you're wondering if Lamorne is still sick, YES. And now also Hannah. So, they're both a little bit loopy!! But as a wise man once said, The Crawl is for all. The sniffly-nosed, the brain-fogged and sneezy schnozzed; the puffy-peepered and sleepy keisters. And this is an iconic episode, so there is much to talk about!
