New Girl renewed for fifth season of no longer being new or just about a girl
Fox has renewed its increasingly mislabeled New Girl, giving a fifth season to the show about a woman who is actually quite familiar by now, as well as increasingly just another part of a mixed-gender ensemble. Thirtysomething Men And Women You Know Quite Well And Who Are Probably Too Old To Still Be Sharing An Apartment, But That’s Crucial To The Comedy is actually already in production on those new episodes, as the series attempts to get ahead of Zooey Deschanel’s real-life-pregnancy—something it doesn’t plan to incorporate, as nothing kills the fun of a bunch of youngish people hanging out like a baby.
