New Girl Premiered on FOX on September 20, 2011



NEW GIRL (working title) is a new single-camera comedy from Liz Meriwether ("No Strings Attached") that features a young ensemble cast and takes a fresh and outrageous look at modern male/female relationships.

JESS DAY (Zooey Deschanel, "(500) Days of Summer") is an offbeat and adorable girl in her late 20s who, after a bad breakup, moves in with three single guys. Goofy, positive, vulnerable and honest to a fault, Jess has faith in people, even when she shouldn't. Although she's dorky and awkward, she's comfortable in her own skin. More prone to friendships with women, she's not used to hanging with the boys - especially at home.

Of the three male roommates, NICK (Jake Johnson, "No Strings Attached") is the most grounded. He had big plans for life, but somewhere along the way, he stopped caring and became a bartender. Usually the smartest guy in the room, he has an uncanny knack for reading people and uses humor to deflect everyone and everything. SCHMIDT (Max Greenfield, "Ugly Betty") is a hustling young professional who fancies himself a modern-day Casanova. Though his heart is usually in the right place, he's always scheming ways to climb the social ladder and is driven by an immature and almost obsessive urge to be on "the scene." Viewing Jess as a gateway into the elusive female mind, as well as a personal project, Schmidt encourages the guys to bring Jess into the apartment. The third roommate, COACH (Damon Wayans Jr., "The Underground"), is a former high school athlete who currently makes his living as a personal trainer. Set in his ways and with a take-it-or-leave-it attitude to dating, Coach is most comfortable when he's in the gym. Though he'll never admit it, Coach's macho athletic exterior is actually a cover for his shyness around women, and he struggles to translate his personal confidence into conversation, preferring to speak in sports metaphors - or not at all.

Rounding out this group is Jess' childhood best friend, CECE (Hannah Simone, "Beautiful People"), a deadpan, somewhat cynical model who blossomed after outgrowing her promiscuous adolescent years. She has the street smarts Jess lacks and spends a lot of time doling out no-nonsense relationship advice that only a professional model could give. She and Jess balance each other well and accept each other despite their faults, making Cece the perfect complement to Jess.

As their relationships progress, the five friends come to realize they need each other more than they ever thought they would and end up forming a charmingly dysfunctional family.

The naked dancing was crazy but Jess needing dating advice from the guys made a nice change and i thought her model friends would turn out to be guys but turning down a date with Caroline to help Jess was nice

totally cute but the editing needs to be worked on.  I can't figure if this is the middle or the beginning.

lol love it, the 1st felt rushed, my guess to really set up the story, hopefully now they will slow it down enough for us to really fall in love.

Author: arksongbird80    Time: 9-30-2011 06:55     Subject: Reply 7#7 gabsimom's post

yes.  The actor who played coach, had to go back to his ORIGINAL show.  They must have thought it would get cancelled but nope.

Anyone know what that show was?
Author: gabsimom    Time: 9-30-2011 13:11

ok I see he is on  Happy Endings. he must of shot in several series not knowing both would be picked up by the network and had to choose one.

How crazy to sit in the car while Jess was struggling to carry everything but dropping the TV for a t shirt was amusing

Nick asking Jess to come along and pretend to be his date to make his ex Caroline jealous was amusing but didn't go exactly to plan

Author: arksongbird80    Time: 11-2-2011 11:21     Subject: Naked

There isn't much to this comedy.  It has no story arc.  The people are kinda dumb and honestly it's not funny.  They talked about being naked, hooking up and body parts.  The new guy was trying to get a job and even that was lame.

I'm thinking I have to give up. This one just isn't cutting it.

The way Schmidt tries to seal the deal with Cece was a little crazy but at least he did sleep with her and all the guys in the bathroom while she was in the shower was creepy and Jess freaking out because of where Nick's feet were pointing was amusing

Jess should of realised when she hired the stripper for Schmidt's 29th birthday she might get a guy instead of a girl so paying him not to strip was amusing

Schmidt being baffled as to why his shower towel is always damp was amusing but finding out who else was also using it and never washes it was a little disturbing

Author: codebreaker    Time: 2-11-2012 08:35     Subject: 1x12 The Landlord

Schmidt getting mixed signals from his boss Kim was amusing but the way she asked him to clean up her hard drive did sound sexual and the the security spoiling it after he eventually made a move was bad timing, trust Jess to jeopardizes their living situation by going to see the landlord when the guys told her not to but the idea of a threesome was disturbing

Jess pushing Schmidt to go on strike when she realizes that he is unfairly doing all of the housework has backfired when it seems like their entire ecosystem of the loft is thrown off balance

The way Nick was treated when attempting to buy a new cell phone was terrible and making fun of his credit score was so unprofessional, Russell giving Jess his car when hers broke down was nice considering their first meeting at school but trust her to fiddle with the Japanese toilet system

Poor Schmidt desperately trying not to get aroused around Cece as he deals with a delicate medical issue but bringing him to the nursing home to meet her grandmother must mean she is serious about him

I'm not surprised Cece and Schmidt's relationship reached a turning point after he read her text but the way he tried to do it was amusing but Jess and Nick coming face to face with a coyote after getting stuck in the dessert was great
