I watched the Pilot last night and I actually laughed a little bit. Also, there are good looking women so that helps.

Just curious if I should continue or if I am wasting my time.

thanks!

It's awesome. One of my favorites. Nick and Schmidt and Jess are all very, very good characters. Funny and unique in different ways, but legitimately funny.

thanks! I was intrigued because normally Pilots are sometimes crappy IMO. So when I enjoyed this one, I figured the show must be pretty good.

Any more opinions welcomed

It's great and probably one of the more underrated sitcoms ever.

Amen! One of my favorites. Each character kind of takes a turn being the best on the show. They are all strong and make me laugh.

Finished season 1 last night. Laughed quite a bit throughout the first ~24 eps.

I had been watching the Office - got to season 4 and would go whole extended episodes without laughing, so it was nice to find something that worked consistently instead of "sticking with it" for some occasional humor.

I definitely think its targeted at the sorority girl demographic but I don't care, I'll still watch it if nothing else is on.

Be prepared. The pilot has a different Winston character than the rest of the show. But the pilot Winston returns during a later season as a different character.

I have watched the show since it began. The show is funny but at this point, I personally would prefer more Nick, Schmidt, and Winston and far less Jess. The 3 guys definitely provide the funniest moments

the show was great. Then good. It got a resurgence of life when Jess was off the air for maternity leave.

Now that she's back, that means half of every episode sucks again. I know the show is called New Girl...but they need to kick her to the curb. Schmidt has been neutered by CeCe.

It's pretty funny but it's kind of a girl show

This week's episode was probably the first one ever I didn't really enjoy. It's a consistently hilarious show with great male characters

Let me clarify: first three seasons were great, then season 4 stopped making me laugh almost entirely. I know a lot of people say it starts to slide around 5, but there was a noticeable drop by the time I got to 4. About 4 extended episodes in and I was ready to call it quits.

But seasons 1-3 are classics.

All you need to know Nick's deal is he honest to God might be 50, Schmidt's deal is he had to Shazam "Stairway To Heaven," and winston'a deal is he's been dumped a lot.

Season 6 of the office is possibly my favorite season. Its my favorite show of all time though so I may be biased, but I didnt think there was ever a bad season. Until season 8 when there was no Michael.

Admittedly, I don't ever find myself wanting to put it on, but every week my wife will catch up on Hulu, and I laugh more at this show that anything since probably 30 Rock.

It's good enough that they don't put in a ridiculous laugh track, unlike some very popular sitcoms.

They just need to get rid of Jess and get a "new girl". The three guys make the show.

Winston is the best.

That "let's pour some juice near her shoe" line is my go-to quote for certain situations.

The guys are by far the best part of the show. The Winston and Ferguson relationship is also great

Winston: "you lost your right to talk to me about race after the OJ Trial"

cuts to flashback as kids watching OJ coverage

Nick: "Why does it have to be a white bronco? Why can't it just be a bronco?"

Love New Girl!

Season 1-3 Schmidt was amazing, but he hasn't been as good in the last 2 seasons. Doesn't really bother me though, because Nick and Winston have gotten insane. They are the best part of the show for sure.

New Girl is one of my favorites by far. Schmidt and Nick are some of the funniest characters I have ever seen, especially, the more you watch.

Anyone wanting to pick up this show-- Make sure to watch from beginning!

They had a "new girl" for most of this season...Have to say I liked her character a lot more than I thought I would. Nicks interactions with her were ridiculously funny.

if you like it, why not watch it, regardless if it's "good show" to others? you said you laughed, if you enjoy it, you're not "wasting" your time. if you stop enjoying it, you don't have to keep watching it.

Coach is always coach, Winston is always Winston. The second episode explains Coach moving out and Winston moving in (can't remember Coach's story), but their characters are consistent throughout.

Disagree. Winston didn't really become Winston until they brought Coach back on the show. Before that he was basically the same character as Coach, the stereotypical black guy.
