What’s This TV Show About?

A FOX sitcom, New Girl stars Zooey Deschanel, Jake Johnson, Max Greenfield, Lamorne Morris, and Hannah Simone, with guest star Nasim Pedrad. The ensemble comedy centers on Jess (Deschanel), a free-spirited young woman and her friends. Together, they serve as something of a chosen family as they navigate modern love and friendship. The seventh season kicks off with Jess and Nick (Johnson) together, having just returned from a whirlwind European book tour. Meanwhile, stay-at-home dad Schmidt (Greenfield) and working mom Cece (Simone) are raising their daughter, Ruth, and Winston (Morris) and Aly (Pedrad) are married, with a baby on the way.

Telly’s Take

There’s no need to worry about whether FOX will cancel or renew New Girl for season eight. When the network picked up this season last spring, they made it clear it was a seventh and final season renewal. Hopefully, the writers have used all that advance notice to craft a satisfying New Girl TV series finale. Either way though, my patience and persistence have paid off, and I’m going to eat. Still, I’ll keep an eye on the ratings and any news about possible spin-offs or reunions. Subscribe for free New Girl updates.
