After going through a rough breakup, awkward and upbeat Jess (Zooey Deschanel) moves in with three single guys. Intelligent and witty Nick is an underachiever who took the bartender off-ramp on his road to success. Schmidt obsesses over his social standing and looks at Jess as a personal project. Winston is a competitive former athlete who, after realizing he will never become a pro, moves into the loft. Together with Jess' best friend, Cece, they bond to form an unlikely, and dysfunctional, family.

Erik Adams AV Club At this stage in New Girl's life, we're tuning in to see how these characters react to the games the writers set up for them. Rated: B+ Sep 24, 2014 Full Review Alan Sepinwall HitFix Liz Meriwether said one of the goals for getting the show back on track would be to simplify the storytelling and put her characters in position to be funny as often as possible. "The Last Wedding" is a strong example of that approach at work. Sep 17, 2014 Full Review Jason Hughes TheWrap New Girl is back on the solid footing that steered its first two seasons, and perhaps even a little stronger. Sep 17, 2014 Full Review Randy Dankievitch Processed Media "The Last Wedding" is funny, and very much feels like a show regressing to the enjoyable ensemble comedy it was early on. Rated: B+ Feb 12, 2020 Full Review Michelle Stark Tampa Bay Times The ensemble that made this show such a fun place to spend Tuesday nights. Welcome back, New Girl. It's nice to see you again. Dec 10, 2014 Full Review Camille Espiritu The Young Folks It is honestly hard not to love this quirky gang. The comedic energy was there and I enjoyed it like I did with season 1. Everything fits right into place again and the chemistry is back. Sep 22, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Affleberry F One of the most criminally underrated shows of all time. There isn't a bad character, or a bad episode, in the whole series. I would strongly recommend this to anyone with a sense of humor & a desire to laugh...a lot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/12/22 Full Review Audience Member Good character development for a number of the characters but Jess seems to fall behind in that category going through her same weird motions. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member My favorite show! I rewatch episodes. This is literally the only show I've found rewatch value in period. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Season Four of New Girl maneuvers between its characters and their development with finesse and precision to deliver one of the funniest seasons of television that isn't afraid to pack an emotional punch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I would give this show a B because the Comedy is good and the show is Demoit. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Started out strong, but already jumped the shark IMO Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
