    OK even though she wouldn't have made that up, "Simpy Adorkable" makes me want to punch her in the ovaries. Hard.

    Please allow me to refer you to an earlier post of mine: -

    Whoa, whoa, whoa, they'll be no Deschanel hatin' going on around here!

    Seriously. Same old "quirky" Zooey ****.

    Seen a couple of episodes. Didn't crack a smile once, it's fairly typical obvious American humour and unsubtle acting. And why are the female characters so far bar Jess all pretty unpleasant? It just seems a bit like a vehicle to "show off" her interesting singing voice and admittedly lovely hair. Not even saved by having Charlie Day's adorable wife on it (surprise, they made her an unpleasant woman too).

    Word. Also, 'New Girl' is kind of pushing it at 32.

    Awh I love this show. It's really cute and is quite successfully feeling the gap Friends left behind (and that Big Bang Theory seemed to stop mid new series)

    Zooey and Katy is the same person, you never see them together.

    I like Zooey in some stuff like 500 days of Summer but New Girl is just a vehicle for her and she just dominates the whole show to its detriment. The writers obviously think just stick her in front of a camera and thats the show done.

    It's not really all that good to be honest, I hate all the characters other than Jess in it, and if Zooey wasn't in it I probably wouldn't keep watching it to be honest. There are some bits where I smile, but rarely laugh. After 3 episodes I'm willing to give it a couple more, but it's not as good as other sitcoms I'm watching at the moment.

    I enjoyed it and was happily procrastinating whilst watching it I bet Jess and Nick get together too.

    This made me chuckle, but what with the Zooey hating?

    Sort of...Coach who was in the pilot has moved out and now the other black guy has moved in, who had been in Latvia doing basketball. Shame as I quite liked Coach in the pilot.

    Despite what I had said before I gave it another go, second episode was good in a couple of times but still sadly, poor overall.

    Might try a couple more during lunch breaks this week from working on my essay then. I'll still give it a fair chance.

    I did love Coach though and the way he'd shout at women, even if it was only for one episode. :moon: 'STOP IT!'

    That's what I thought too. They're so sweet, bless 'em.

    I quite like the show, it's easy to watch and just the right length for a break from revision
