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.

Ben Travers IndieWire "New Girl" has had to balance its romantic payoffs with extending the tension, and occasionally the storytelling has suffered as a result. Nevertheless, the absolute joy and unabashed goofiness at it core always delivers. Feb 12, 2019 Full Review Emily L. Stephens AV Club It's hard for a situation comedy to change its situation... But a makeshift living situation can only stay static for so long. Now is a perfect time to strip the show's dynamics down to the studs. Rated: B+ Sep 21, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Maximilian M New Girl is one of the funniest TV Shows ever :D Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/16/24 Full Review 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 This was a good season. There were some very nice moments. I liked the romance in this season from start to finish. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Great character development for most characters, seeing Winston at his best, notably in Operation Bobcat. Ally is a great character throughout the season and I feel like we get the best version of Nick. Jess is a mess as she has little to no development from the first episode of the show to this point relying on the same quirks while everyone else has matured over the years and found their purpose. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The SHOW HAS CLEARLY LOST ALL FOOTING AND NOW DEPENDS ON PURE SITUATIONAL AND SLAPSTICK COMEDY THAT WAS NOT NEARLY AS OVERBEARING IN THE EARLIER SEASONS. fORCING THEM TO DUMB DOWN THE TWO MAIN (nICK AND jESs) AND MOST LIKABLE CHARACTERS TO AN ALMOST UNWATCHABLE LEVEL. tHE ONLY SHINING STAR IN THIS SEASON IS THE EVOLUTION OF WINSTON AND HIS ROMANTIC DEVELOPMENTS. tHE SHOW STARTS TO LEAVE THE REALM OF REALISM FOR SHORT, CHEAP LAUGHS THAT COME FEW AND FAR BETWEEN. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member They picked it back up this season, with really great character development! Very frustrated at the season finale though. Not that it was bad, it was just annoying because I still have to wait! I didn't finish this season right before the next one was coming out, I finished it way before the next one was coming out! Excited for the final season though! Definitely going to be watching it as it airs! (I started watching the show on Netflix, I think, but and then I just kept watching it on there. I'd wait a year, every year, instead of just catching up on Netflix, and then watching live while it aired! By the way, I may go back through and watch the whole entire series through again, at some point. I've done that with a few series, and really loved it, but I also wanna want to get all the season reviews for this series, which is one of my all time favorite series of all time!)
