‘Every Year After’s Joseph Chiu Plays a Game of Who Said It: Jordie or Shrek? (VIDEO)

Yes, you read that headline right. In the spirit of Jordie’s iconic “layers” line in the finale of Every Year After Season 1, we put actor Joseph Chiu to the test, quizzing him on lines from his character and the ogre from which he borrowed his metaphor.

In case you missed it, Jordie tells Sam (Matt Cornett) that he adores Chantal (Aurora Perrineau) because everything about her is a surprise. He explains, “She’s got layers. She’s like an onion with a mint chip ice cream inside.” Of course, Jordie isn’t the first to pull an onion-layers metaphor. This line mirrors the quote from Shrek, “Onions have layers. Ogres have layers. Get it? We both have layers.”
