Don’t let the title scare you away, gentlemen.
New Girl is our Netflix Pick of the Week.
Yes, the title makes sense at first butNew Girlisnt another canceled-too-soon show.
It has thrived, and is now entering its fourth season this fall.
I know it did for me.
All is good, though.
Eventually I foundNew Girl, as Ill explain later on.
Now Im ready to share the gift with you, confused Netflix binger.
Premise:
Breaking up is hard to do.
Its even harder when you live with the person who just cheated on you.

Seasons:
Two seasons are available on Netflix.
The fourth season starts this fall on FOX.
Why you should watch it:
Jake Johnson.
I have a bias toward Jake Johnson because hes my new favorite actor.
Netlfix is a total enabler.
Regardless, hes the glue that holdsNew Girltogether.
But enough gushing about Jake Johnson.
The entire supporting cast is the reason to pick up this screwball comedy.
Winston is the wildcard in the production.
Of course, we cant forget about the titular character, Jess.
Deschanels performance evolves as the character comes out of her shell.
Then I had a realization.
Heres the thing about Zooey Deschanel: Her eyes have the ability to pierce your soul.
Eventually they have intense, at times uncomfortable, but nonetheless passionate sex and nine months laterNew Girlis born.
Final Verdict:
Highly binge-able.
Come for the Deschanel, stay for the Jake Johnson.
AndGoogle+, if thats your thing!
