8 Quirky Female TV Characters We Love

2. Jess Day - New Girl

New-Girl Jess Day is the wide-eyed teacher who moved in to an apartment with 3 guys after finding her long-term boyfriend had cheated on her. Trying to 'find herself' and gain her confidence back, Jess gets herself in all sorts of pickles, especially when it comes to her roommates, her love life and her family (or all three combined). Let's face it, Jess is a dork. Or as she's more commonly known as, 'adorkable', with the nerdy gegs and polka dot dresses to prove it. She loves nothing more than playing on the hand-bells, watching Curly Sue and writing Nancy Drew fan-fiction in her pyjamas. Jess is an awesome friend and if something's bothering you she'll be more than willing to lend you her Feeling Stick (or her travel-size Feeling Stick, for the girl on the go). The gorgeous geek possesses an unavoidable and damn right cute inability of being unable to say the word 'penis', along with being horrendous at flirting and a habit of singing what she wants rather than just saying it. The world would be a far happier place if we all tried to be more like Jess! Quirky Quotes: "I'm gonna end up alone. I'm gonna be a single old lad, flashing people on the subway." "I feel like I wanna murder someone. And also, I feel like I want soft pretzels." "If any of you cross me, I'm gonna kick the testicles clean off your bodies! Clean off! You'll look like ken dolls down there!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShDOL58piAY
