12 Prax150 So I enjoyed the premiere last week and I'm glad Liz Meriwether and the cast are going to get some closer but it definitely felt like that should have been maybe the final arc of last season and not a standalone season on its own. It felt like a completely different show and not necessarily in a good way. New Girl was always a show about comradery and friendship first and foremost and that premiere tilted fully into relationship sitcom. Maybe it just needed to kind of do a semi-reboot and it gets better, but even though it's still funny I was kind of glad this was going to be the final season.
