Best woman for Jack-don't say Liz.


There were some strong guest stars that had those multiple episode "arcs". If I were advising Jack I would urge him to get back with Julianne Moore.
The Boston accent aside.

Cece. Age appropriate, good chemistry. Politics and Ambition aside.

Uhm, just started watching season 2 and do (sorry in advance) Jack and Liz ever get together? Just really curious.

She just smiled you know. That 'Effy smile', that means "you don't know me at all. You never will."

reply

No!!!

Remember the cat wrangler from the pilot episode, played by Rachel Dratch? Her.

I loved him with Julianne Moore, too. She was so funny in her role. But I think Avery came closest to representing his true love, his career. It's so simple but remember "business gets me off" and other lines? He should have trophy wife after trophy wife because they won't mean as much as his career but will help him climb the ladder even further. The characters at the office fulfill his need for the ups and downs of interpersonal relationships.

Elisa and Nancy were my favourites, and I honestly wished he'd end with Nancy over Avery

Though I wish they'd have done something with him and Jenna

Nancy was wicked-best, but Salma Hayek's character was the wick-hottest. Might have been funny if he had a harem going.

I would say CC since she was the most "normal" out of all his relationships on the show.

reply

Difficult to say honestly, really apart from his ex-wife and the Gold digger, honestly they all fit with him quite well, and really it was only circumstances that ruined there chances of being together.

I quite liked CeCe, Avery and Nancy. But really I always got the feeling it would have worked out fine if he had been able to stay with any of them. I guess that's arguably the pathos of his character, Liz spent her life searching for Mr Right, Jack had already found Mrs Right over and over again, he just never got to stay with any of them.

CeCe > Elisa > Nancy > Phoebe > Avery > Bianca

C.C., followed closely by Nancy.

Nancy, the most 'normal' and loving woman Jack ever got involved with. She was unselfish and encouraged him to do the "right thing" to marry Avery. The "right thing" these days is simply paying up for child support, but she let Jack go. She can be supportive and sweet to Jack, instead of causing him trouble like his other women. On the other hand, Jack loves drama queens.

Avery is a Machiavellian control freak. Elisa kills spouses. Bianca is just nuts. Liz is an unkempt nerd who will drive the OCD Jack crazy. Cece and Jack care more about work than each other. And Condi was never shown ;)

reply

Nancy, she was most down to Earth & was his childhood crush. But it's possible they got back together considering Avery fell for that guy she went to North Korea with
