fall tv review


I just love Zooey Deschanel. She's the kind of celebrity I would love to hang out with because they look like so much fun. I think we would probably go vintage dress shopping, since that seems to be her uniform of choice, and then meet up Katy Perry and play a game of whether or not I can tell them appart. When I heard that Zooey was going to be on a TV show, I had my doubts. She's the poster girl for indie hipsters on movies, and the roles she's played tend to suit her well (from Almost Famous to 500 Days of Summer). It's a good thing that New Girl borrows this hipster image, on crack. 

I think this is a show people will either love or will hate, because Zooey's character is very kooky. She plays a girl called Jess Day, who moves in with three guys after she finds out that her boyfriend is cheating on her. Among the things that made me cringe a little about the character, were the fact that she sings to herself constantly, she does victory dances when she's happy, and the constant crying. She cried over Dirty Dancing, and she cried when her roomates helped her out after she got stood up on a date. I can't stand people who cry a lot, I just wanted to tell her to put on her big girl panties and deal with her shit. However, I love her character's quirk because she reminds me a lot of Phoebe Buffay from Friends, the kind of character that you love because of their quirk, and not despite it.

Veredict: will watch again!
