Is jess from new girl autistic reddit Please feel free to submit articles to enhance the knowledge, acceptance, understanding and research of Autism and ASD. She’s “normal” but just “quirky”. Especially because she was always presented as someone who was supposed to be likeable?! Ironically, the best and by far most fun episodes of New Girl were the ones where Megan Fox was a guest star while Jess was on Jury Duty definite energy vampire council member Reply reply latrodectal • Reply reply Clamato-e-Gannon • There’s been a weirdly high amount of Jess slander on this sub lately, so I wanted to share why, even though she is flawed, I love her just as much as the rest of the cast and the show could not exist without her. Struggles with social boundaries, doesn’t understand “appropriate” behavior for specific social settings, pushes her interests on others without realizing they’re uninterested, definitely believes in a “right” way of doing things, stereotypically she’s quirky and that’s typically viewed as an autistic trait, trouble controlling volume of her voice, does lots of things people Jess doesn’t read as autistic to me, but she was the picture of the “manic pixie dream girl” trope when it was released and they were really capitalizing on the “adorkable” thing. That's not autistic A subreddit for fans of the show New Girl. Number 1: She’s not a Mary Sue.

That said tough, she is a sitcom character and those things need to happen so there’s a plot in the episode like honestly, crossing lines and ignoring boundaries is what makes 90% of the storylines in New Girl but people only seem to have a problem with it when Jess does it. I watched New Girl when it first came out and I absolutely loved the show, because I found the characters to be not only hilarious but also relatable.
