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.

Emily L. Stephens AV Club New Girl has earned my trust: I fully expect the cast and crew to make the eight episodes of this shortened final season a tumult of misunderstandings, fumbles, and wacky mishaps suffused with the antic joy and love that has fueled the show. Rated: B+ Apr 26, 2018 Full Review Linda Holmes NPR I haven't seen all eight of these episodes, but I've seen several, and they're a lot of fun. Apr 12, 2018 Full Review Caroline Framke Vox What this season proves is that these characters don't need to be playing drinking games and sleeping with the wrong people to be the people their fans grew to love. Apr 12, 2018 Full Review Alex Diedrick Uproxx ...it's the chemistry between the four mains that makes every outlandish episode work... Nov 11, 2021 Full Review Kate Robertson The Post NZ Gloriously led by Zooey Deshanel. Sep 24, 2021 Full Review Liam Mathews TV Guide It was a fittingly sentimental (and funny) send-off for one of the decade's most effortlessly enjoyable TV shows.

StephenPaul C LOL, the funniest final 8 episodes in situation comedy history!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In 2026, this television series will be 15 years old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/27/23 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. That being said, I've seen many people criticize this last partial season, & while I do understand some of those issues, I am still grateful for it. You see, the cast & crew weren't sure if Ssn6 was going to be the last, so Liz Merryweather (creator of New Girl) made the Ssn6 ending almost work as a series ending. So when they all found out that Fox was going to cancel it, the whole cast & crew wrote a letter to the executives asking them to allow one more season so that they could give the fans a real sendoff. After that Fox gave them the greenlight for a shortened season. I personally think the show could've gone on for several more seasons, at least. Regardless, I was extremely grateful & appreciative that the cast & crew cared that much about the fans to do what they did. Also, although the last "season" (7epispde Ssn7) did feel a bit different, it holds a special place in my heart, as does the whole series. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/12/22 Full Review Audience Member I love this show, it makes me smile a lot and the characters are captivating. I love watching them 💚 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I think the writers were confused with what to do with this part of the characters' lives. It was all about the loft and "growing up" and all the confusion that came with it.... they shouldve made episodes about all that happened in the time gap, instead of pressing fast forward. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Apart from the last seen and the funeral episode the season was a waste of time and thankfully was only 8 episodes. Any magic they thought was still left in the tank was clearly not there. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Season 7 is awful. There was no chemistry left between the actors or with the story telling. It just dragged. I'm usually sad when a show I like ends but I could barely make it through season 7. Not engaging. Not fun. It felt forced. Should have stopped at 6 on a high note. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
