New Girl cast ages: How old was the cast then (and now)?
By Sandy C.
New Girl is one of the best sitcoms of all-time and this isn’t an argument or up for discussion. I don’t know about you, but I still rewatch the entire series at least twice a year. Do you know how long it has been since the series finale? It’s been a minute! How old was the cast when the sitcom first premiered and how old are they now?
While I won’t allow any arguments about how New Girl is one of the best in the sitcom game, I’ll accept opinions on the number of seasons. Many fans believe that seven seasons is too short and wish there had instead been 10 seasons. I, however, believe Jess and her BFFs called it a day at the right time. After all, there are way too many shows these days with an unnecessary amount of seasons. But New Girl? An amazing episode every single time. Not a minute wasted. So why drag the series along? Instead, it got a perfect sendoff.
Beginning April 17, New Girl will stream on Hulu and Peacock. That’s right, the crew is leaving Netflix after nearly 10 years to a new streaming home. Yes, a decade! It’s been that long.
