New Girl

So... Schmidt and Cece are now homeowners.

We learned this at the end of the New Girl Season 6 premiere.

Yes! 

Jess and company are back!

Jess was on a mission throughout New Girl Season 5 Episode 14.

That's what happens when one's ex-boyfriend files a restraint against you.

So here was the bad news for (male) viewers when it came to New Girl Season 5 Episode 12:

Megan Fox did not make a surprising return. She really is gone.

If you watch New Girl online you know that the show's writers cooked up some far-fetched nonsense in order to replace Zooey Deschanel with Megan Fox while Zooey was on maternity leave.

Sadly, it looks like the effort left them too exhausted to come up with any funny jokes or compelling storylines, but don't worry - it seems there is something exciting happening on the show's set:

Megan Fox is moving on from Brian Austin Green.

And this is really good news for Nick, Winston and Schmidt!

Fox announced the first part of its 2015-2016 schedule this morning, making major news on a handful of programming notes:

Nick and Schmidt will now have plenty of time to come up with a new business together.

Because Fox has renewed New Girl for a fifth season!!!

Whereas we've seen plenty of holidays spent together in the loft, New Girl Season 4 Episode 11 saw the gang was stranded at the airport en route home.

The result? A very merry LAXmas to all and a good night ... for fans.

Girl fight!

Oh yeah, big time, but not Sharkeisha style (thankfully). Cece and Jess got into a fight after watching Coach and Schmidt make up with each other after a fight.

Tuesday on New Girl Season 4 Episode 9, Schmidt decided that this Thanksgiving would be a little different. Why? Because the gang's all single at the moment!

On New Girl Season 4 Episode 8, Ryan and Jess tried to get some alone time while the guys tried to get in some fun while Jess was gone from the loft.

On New Girl Season 4 Episode 7, Schmidt was distraught to discover that former flame Cece is contemplating the unthinkable: breast reduction surgery.

Meanwhile, Nick pretends that he is gay in order to make Jess' date Ryan feel more comfortable, which sounds like the most foolproof plan ever devised.

Thank you, New Girl Season 4 Episode 6, for getting "Landslide" stuck into our head all night.

Fortunately - as Nick pointed out while often singing this classic song out loud on an especially zany episode of this Fox sitcom - it really is a pretty darn good tune.

On New Girl Season 4 Episode 5, the gang decides they need a landline phone after years of frustration at the crappy reception their cells all get in the loft.

Yes, this is one of the primary plot lines of an episode.

Jess tried to prove a point to the guys on New Girl Season 4 Episode 4, which is a recipe for comedic gold nine times out of 10 with this FOX comedy.

Her goal? To prove that women are, collectively, less shallow than men.

On New Girl Season 4 Episode 3, Bob Day came to visit with another New Girl - his much younger girlfriend - which made for plenty of tension with Jess.

Awkward, downright adorkable tension, it goes without saying.

We apologize up front if you're wearing Velcro shoes while reading this, but, well...

... you're a pervert.

Wait... who's that girl? Again, we ask: who's that girl? One more time: who's that girl?!?

Oh, it's Jess... ica Biel!

If you haven't seen Prince's post-Super Bowl performance on Fox's funniest comedy, follow the link and watch New Girl online right now. It's worth it.

If you caught it last month, you know that the reclusive rocker guest starred and performed a song titled "FALLINLOVE2NITE" with Zooey Deschanel.

New Girl Season 3 Episode 10 was an absurd installment of the FOX hit comedy. Titled "Thanksgiving III," it sure upped the ante from the previous two years.

Feeling emasculated by Coach, Nick suggests a group camping trip on Thanksgiving to prove he's a man's man ... who brought only 96 warm beers along.
