"New Girl" Returns, Peen and Bubbles on Display in "Naked" Episode

Jake Johnson, Zooey Deschanel and Max Greenfield in a scene from tonight's New Girl

Tonight’s New Girl is all about the penis as Jess (Zooey Deschanel) accidentally sees Nick’s (Jake Johnson), then reveals she has a hard time saying the actual word.  But you might be more interested in how our favorite lughead Schmidt (Max Greenfield) becomes obsessed with taking a good hard look at Nick’s schlong.

Will we someday see Schmidt come out of the closet? Actor Jake Johnson, on a press call yesterday, told AfterElton.com that he wouldn’t exactly be surprised if Schmidt did end up truly preferring penises over, well, lady parts.

“I know what my personal opinion is is [that] Schmidt is right on the line. You never know what’s going to happen.”

In past episodes, Schmidt has usually been the one to peel off his shirt, but it’s Nick who dances around sans clothes tonight when Jess walks in on him. “That was really embarrassing, to be honest,” Johnson said of shooting the scene. “We work with the same crew all the time and you become like family so there’s 40 members of your family watching you in really tight underwear dancing to reggae music.”   

New Girl airs at 9pm et/pt every Tuesday on Fox.
