But then there are moments when it’s the best ensemble sitcom on TV for more reasons than, “Hey, this episode had a lot of Schmidt!” And creator Elizabeth Meriwether finally figured out how to balance the many storylines within each episode…until the finale.īest Episode: “Wedding Eve,” the penultimate Season 5 episode, showcases everything good about “New Girl”: Schmidt, an ensemble with top-notch chemistry, Schmidt, screen time weighted by significance, Schmidt and romance - namely, Schmidt and Cece’s romance, the only successful coupling to date. Why Should I Watch It? It’s difficult to make a strong case for “New Girl.” At times, it falls firmly into the “guilty pleasure” category, as the fun and romantic antics of Jess (Zooey Deschanel), Nick (Jake Johnson), Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and the rest of the True American crew only make for justifiable viewing because of the cast’s charming performances. “New Girl” Season 5 (available September 20) READ MORE: Ben McKenzie on the ‘Gotham’ Finale and How Season 2 Changed Gordon Forever 4.
That’s why we’re coming back for Season 3 (and why you should catch up, so you can, too).
The choice is made in “Worse Than a Crime,” but it’s not fully dealt with until “Prisoners.” And while the former offers up high stakes drama with a shocking conclusion, it’s that “Gotham” delved into the arc’s ramifications. “Gotham” Season 2’s most fascinating story tracked Gordon’s boldest decision yet one that proved to be quite the game-changer.
