I begged my sister to watch this show . . . and she finally did. We were watching this episode and she said to me, "Oh no! He isn't going to sing to her is he?", and she couldn't stop laughing. She watched the rest of the episodes on DVD and agreed with me that this was one great show that should never have been canceled.
I always DIE whenever I see the excitement on his face when he opens the door, especially since he did it a split second after she rang the doorbell. Sigh... <3
They never should've cancelled the show.. I'm pretty sure they had more planned out for Nick and Lindsey..
Fav moments are 2:52 and 3:10 <3 I love that they dated irl :-) It makes this sweeter than sad. Embarrassingly, gutwrenchingly, heartbreakingly sad...
I don't think Lindsey hated this, I think she just didn't know how to react..I mean..I don't think I would know how to either, especially when he starts talking, and getting really into it. It's so painful, yet so cute..
God this is so painful to watch yet at the same time hilarious...The main reason I love this show so damn much. It literally encompassed growing up like few shows I've ever seen. and it did it completely without all the cheese of some "coming of age" TV shows or movies. It was painfully honest and at the same time absolutely hilarious. One of the most pitch perfect shows I've ever ever seen.
Everyone remarks on how creepy nick acts but its only creepy because lindsey never really loved nick she just liked him. If she had returned the affection he wouldn't have seemed that creepy. That's also why you love him because he has a huge heart and you feel kinda bad for him.
this was so cringey, and strangely adorable, but thats only because its jason segel...and to be honest, a 6'6" dude singing his heart out to you is pretty damn cute. in a cringey way. haha..
Judd Apatow (and company) did such good work in TV, which never got any support from the networks. Then they go off and many movies that are basically debased, much more misogynistic, shallower riffs on the same sorts of things, and those get all sorts of good play. What the heck?
I love how patiently they leave us with the awkwardness, here. Oh, man.
i luv this show!!! and i luv this scene!!! i think that lindsay and nick-if the show continued-would hv been a great on-off couple. theres somethin about them that works although it is obvious lindsay has a crush on daniel and yea nick can be creepy and i think that lindsay, at this time, she doesnt know what she wants and still needs to explore but overall they could work-as a couple. nick needs to mature more and on top of this-lady l. that rite there is a two for 1 package deal!! <3 jason!!
i think nick is quite cute in this scene. you can totally tell that lindsey doesn't feel the same way. Nick is so sweet in this scene - it's the next episode [SPOILER] that he gets creepy!!
FYI lanamanasco - i am in love with jason segel too!!!
When nick says "all guys wanna make out, I just want to hold you," I about DIED laughing. Couple that with the fact that he's not even singing for half the song, just repeating the lyrics with the most awfsome hand gestures ever invented by man...and this is possibly the greatest scene in all of TV history. (followed closely by Lady L)
Question: When she asks him "You wanna make out or something?" is she asking him that because she wants to make out with him, or is it because she thinks he is beating around the bush so she just calls him out on it?
It's the same kind of feeling I get with Michael Scott from The Office...they're painfully awkward and sometimes a bit outlandish, but I always end up feeling sorry for them and wishing them the best. I don't think Nick is as creepy as everyone says, he's just never been in love before and I can kind of relate to that...
He 's being so romantic and sweet and she says "wanna make out or something?"!So silly!Anyway this show was so awesome, too bad they canceled it.LOVE JASON SEGEL!
This scene is one of my favorites of the series. It is so hard to watch for how awkward and embarrassing it is for both characters, but it is brilliantly sincere and funny. I love Lindsay and Nick.
What I can't figure out is how the writers/Segel managed to make me STILL love Nick/be sad that he and Lindsay (SPOILER!) break up in the next episode even though he is so creepy in this scene that the first time I saw it I literally buried my face in my hands because it was so painful to watch him make a fool out of himself.
I don't know how they managed to make Nick still loveable after this, but they did, and it was brilliant.
@wordcreatement I don't think this is meant to be entirely creepy. His potential creepiness doesn't start until the next episode. Only hints are given here. This is meant to be humorous as Lindsey has been worrying the entire episode that Nick wants to have sex with her.
@wordcreatement This was the moment that made Nick so lovable for me. Seeing him bare him heart in such a painfully humiliating way is one of the most endearing things I have ever seen. From this point on in the series, I loved Nick like he was real.
@wordcreatement i paused at 0:12 to read your comment and as i got up to the 'he is so creepy' part i scrolled up to the screen and Nick looks like a complete psycho hahaha
this is what made the show so good ... this part... goofy??? yes ... but Nick is that kind of guy in the show, trys but not quite able to pull off. And the way it's done is classic.
I love Lindsey and Nick so much, I cant believe she left him. He cle=arly loves her so much. What a rude b****. I wish they would of made more episodes, and then they get back toghether.
hahaha. the poor boy. He tried so hard. unfortunately, I don't think Lindsey realized how much she actually liked him until she wasn't with him anymore. there was so much potential....
this made me love jason segel even MORE, i didnt know that was possible.
