Jo and Rick’s wedding

[Johnny be good!]

Despite that it happened in one episode, I can honestly say I loved it. There were a few missing characters. Edna I can understand, as she was in Africa with Bruce on an assignment with the Peace Corps. Jo’s Uncle Sal and her cousins Paul, Bud, and Terry (all from the episode “Jo’s Cousin”) should have been there, as should her paternal grandfather. All in all, it was a great episode and was awesome seeing one of the girls get married before the show ended.

Agree, I adore this episode

I had mixed emotions about this episode. Jo looked beautiful but I thought that her relationship with Rick was too fast and not really that believable. Something about him really got on my nerves. I wish they would have picked someone different to be her husband b/c he always seemed kind of silly to me and not her type at all.

During the show's original broadcast, I had missed the episodes with Rick before Jo got married, so I was shocked to see her get married to someone I'd never even seen before.

Definitely too fast.

He was in a lot of eps, but they never really showed their relationship grow. I mean, I would have been okay with her marrying Eddie because at least they showed their relationship more consistently.

Actually he wasn't. I thought he was too but it was pointed out to me on here he was only in 4 episodes of the series. His second episode shows viewers that him and Jo are dating before they get married in his third episode. Weird uh?

[RetroGuy2000]

Yeah, they get married after two episodes of them being seen dating. That's quite a whirlwind romance! He only appears in four episodes, total.

Just as with Eddie, we barely see Rick before Jo agrees to marry him. Actor Scott Bryce is more than 8 years older than Nancy, just as Clark Brandon (Eddie) was. This always struck me as odd. What is Jo's "type"? Guys she barely knows!?

Eddie is very different than Rick. Eddie was already established in Jo's life before she began Eastland. Eddie is the reason Jo was sent to Eastland. I just watched The New Girl today and it sounds like they had been dating for a few years right after her father "left" as Mrs. Garrett put it when talking to Blair about Jo.

No, in another episode, they ask how long she'd been dating Eddie, and she says something like "three weeks".

Oo, good catch. I think Jo was sent to Eastland as combination of getting her away from bad influences like that "boy who got into her into trouble---not that kind of trouble" who I strongly believe is not Eddie, but also to get her away from this new boy Eddie who came too strongly into Jo's life.
