What Was Her Theory On Jacqueline Novogratz Episode of New Girl?
What Was Her Theory On Jacqueline Novogratz Episode of New Girl?Was there a 'what inspired Jacqueline Novogratz' episode of New Girl? It's one of the show's more ambiguous questions, because there were a lot of episodes where the show clearly had a creative vision, but every time it deviated from that, the creative direction was inevitably determined by character.The character of Jessika - who has an odd surname, thus her being dubbed 'Jessie' - appears in a lot of episodes, not just the part in which she worked in the money-making ivory trade in Rwanda. Of course, she's smarter than most people, and seems to have some sort of issue with a strict grade school teacher. But, for me, what was her theory on Jessika was always where the conflict took place.Because this character never seems to have a problem with rhyming slang, but wants to be accepted for her creative approach to everything, it seems to me that the conflict with her 'classmates' is something more personal, like her being cheated at the altar. Whether or not it's true, she never seems to find out the whole truth, so the conflict takes place later in the episode, in episode three.As we all know, rhyming is one of the biggest deterrents to completing a goal, and while the series struggles with language at times, I think if they needed to, they could have done a better job of it. And, to be honest, I don't really understand why she doesn't just invent a couple of rhymes, you know? I mean, she says she has an eight-year-old daughter, so, like I said, maybe that's why she doesn't. What's her idea of creating rhymes?Rhymes come from somewhere. So, why didn't she use her daughter as a source for the rhymes? Who's going to listen to someone tell her daughter's mother that she's been banned from leaving the house?So, I think the conflict was all about rhyming, and whether or not she should have something to rhyme about or what to rhyme about. And I think that it was exactly that. Because when we talk about w hat inspired her, it was about an issue of language. So, a statement like, 'The most creative women are the ones that can't rhyme,' or 'We want to see a brilliant woman fail,' can't possibly be true, since the character has no problem rhyming.In fact, I think it's a great idea that the character makes rhymes in a lot of episodes. But, like I said, it wasn't really her idea.
