‘New Girl,’ “Christmas Eve Eve”
Even though Secret Santa seems like it should be the less stressful way to celebrate the holidays with friends, it always puts too much pressure on that one gift to be extra special. That’s what the loft-mates find out in “Christmas Eve Eve,” the last of New Girl’s stellar run of Christmas episodes. This episode has it all: bean bag chairs, Megan Fox, fake snow, Darlene Love, a bunch of drunk mall elves, and—most importantly—retired Rear Admiral Jay Garage-A-Roo. This episode is exactly what you want from a Christmas sitcom episode: it’s equally silly and sentimental.
