New Girl: Godparents (2018)
Loved Gareth Reynolds in this episode
One of my favourite episodes! I really thought that the security guard character (named Brian, by the way...) was the highlight, and he always cracks me up when I watch it! I wish he would have come back in the last couple of episodes, but I suppose the world wasn't ready for more Brian.
Also, I don't think it's a fair assessment from the little girl when she tells Schmidt that security did "nothing" when the white man broke in. Did you see those cat-like reflexes?? Did he let Nick hop the wall into the school?! No, he did not! He did his duty! And he did it with such grace and humour that I think he should have become a permanent character.
The only thing that would have made this episode better would have been if Winston and Ali named Brian the security guard the official godparent. Like at the very end and they just fired Jess, and brought in our King, Brian the security guard, and announced that clearly he's the only one fit to protect their child in this harsh world.
