What a lackluster ending to a lackluster season. Man, I hope next season is a return to form.

I'm starting to think this show, starring Zooey Deschanel, would be better if it did not have Zooey Deschanel in it. Rename it Schmidt, Winston, Nick, and Coach Say the Darndest Things.

Jess has completed her character arc. She wanted a position of authority in a school, but was too "free-spirited" to get one. Now that the guys have become the major source of comedy, she's been forced into the role of straight man, which allowed her to accomplish her goals, but doesn't really work for her as a character or for Zooey Deschanel as an actress.

The break up plot is awful but I still find myself laughing hard every episode, especially at Winston and Schmidt, but even Jess and Nick are still funny despite their arc.

That's a solid distinction. Even if the breakup wasn't earned, none of the individual characters were particularly hurt by it.

If the writers wanted to go full on sci-fi/zombie/whatever next season, I'd probably find the show just as entertaining. But the "new" in "New Girl" is no longer applicable.
