New Girl

Watched during pandemic lockdown, and have to give credit where it's due! Didnt anticipate it to be so good. And though I wanted to binge this, I watched over a few weeks and it really was awesome. Bummed I dont have any more to watch! Probably going to join the select few I have in rotation for rewatching. Give it a shot

Loved this show. Laugh out loud funny for a number of series and then at the end of s5 to the start of s6 it started to become a lot more cliche and lot less funny. I persevered and I'm glad I did just to see it through but it is almost like Liz Merriweather realised at the end of s6 that the show was just treading water with no real purpose so they bashed out s7 to put it all to bed. It comes off rushed and again a shade cliche. I just wished they had progressed the main themes a bit quicker or at least consistently to avoid this stagnation then rush rush rush end. Would still recommend it, some of the most loveable/hilarious characters and I did on occasion lose a manly tear. Also I much preferred the original titles.

Season One: 8/10

Season Seven: 8/10

Themes: Comedy, Roommates, Friendship & Relationships.

Review: You simply cannot go wrong with a sitcom about a group of friends, and this one hit the nail on the head. I loved seeing these goofballs form friendships and relationships with each other, and I adored the dynamics between all the different personalities. Schmidt and Nick will always be the absolute funniest to me but in such completely opposite ways, Jess and all her quicks are so unique and loveable, Cece is such a bad b*tch who will never not be absolutely iconic, and Winston is just so odd but I love him too.

Top five characters: 1) Schmidt, 2) Nick Miller, 3) Cece Parekh, 4) Jessica Day and 5) Winston Bishop.

The 1 star review that shows up when I looked this up on IMDb is ridiculous! I watch quite a few shows (way too many) and this one genuinely gets a smile on my face without cheap tricks, fake laughter, annoying punchline tunes trying to convince me what just happened was funny.

The main characters in this show are already memorable in the pilot, they just have chemistry straight away. A lot of shows that I really love now didn't start off as well as 'New Girl' has for me.

The 'formula' feels fresh to me, I haven't seen this show before in another form and I absolutely love Zoey in this. Her personality in this show is exactly why I fall in love in real life. Just watched the third episode and I'll be sure to tune in next week!

I can't give this show enough love. It's GENIUS! The chemistry between characters is amazing! And the character development is outstanding. In the beginning we get a more serious Winston, but as the show progresses, we see a more goofy Winston, which works. The writers really took their time to improve on each character. The only reason I didn't give it 10 stars is because of how annoying Jess gets after Season 3. I'm not sure if it was purposefully done, but some of the episodes of her acting entitled and "catty" are hard to watch. Other than that, it's the perfect show. Perfect blend of comedy and drama. I just finished watching it all the way through for my 3rd time and immediately started watching for a 4th time. It's my comfort show. I watch it at night before going to sleep and most nights fall asleep to it as background noise. Highly recommend, especially for those who were fans of How I Met Your Mother. I guarantee you will fall in love with it.
