TV crossovers and interconnected universes are the best things when it comes to fandom. But they can be super tricky, for it involves combining separate ongoing storylines into one project. It’s a daunting task for the creative group, which if not done correctly can end up being like Zooey Deschanel’s New Girl and Brooklyn 99 crossover.
Zooey Deschanel as Jessica Day in New Girl
Although people appreciated watching Zooey Deschanel in Brooklyn 99, it wasn’t a great idea to combine the comedy styles of the two shows. Further, what created the biggest mess out of the crossover was featuring the same actors in different roles in the two shows.

The last-ever episode of “New Girl” airs tonight, Tuesday, on Fox, and no one is ready for it. Least of all, Jessica Day (Zooey Deschanel) who is going to be the “bearer of truly terrible news” for the gang in the series closer. News that not everyone finds all that bad, actually.
In the clip above, which is exclusive to TheWrap, Jess and Nick (Jake Johnson) gather Cece (Hannah Simone), Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and Winston (Lamorne Morris) together at the loft to announce that — wait for it — they are being evicted within 24 hours and need to say goodbye to the home they have all (at one time or another) shared.
“Brace yourselves! Nick and I are moving out of the loft,” Jess says.

“That’s it?” Winston says, and it appears Cece and Schmidt are just as underwhelmed.

Jessica Day (Zooey Deschanel) is getting compliment after compliment on the day of her wedding to Nick Miller (Jake Johnson) in Tuesday’s penultimate episode of “New Girl” — too bad everyone is straight up lying to her face. A face partially covered by an eyepatch.
In a clip from the second to last installment of the Fox comedy, which is exclusive to TheWrap, we see Jess’ mother, Joan, (Jamie Lee Curtis) her best friend Cece (Hannah Simone) and Winston’s very pregnant wife Aly (Nasim Pedrad) all complimenting her.
“You’re as beautiful as the day you slid out of me,” Joan tells her. “No one is going to be able to take their eyes off you,” Cece adds.”You’re a vision,” Aly coos. They all deny she looks like a “pirate bride,” before 3-year-old Ruth speaks the truth.

After seven seasons and 146 episodes, “New Girl” is coming to an end.
The two-part series finale, which airs Tuesday on Fox, wraps up the story of Jess, Nick, Schmidt, Cece and Winston after Jess (Zooey Deschanel) and Nick’s (Jake Johnson) engagement in the previous episode. “New Girl” faced an uncertain future after its sixth season, but returned this spring for a final eight episodes, something for which Johnson himself pushed.
“I wrote to [CEOs] Dana [Walden] and Gary [Newman] at Fox asking for the final eight, just to have an ending,” Johnson told Variety at the finale screening. “I really wanted Nick and Jess to have a proper ending. There’s a lot of people who contact me who relate to Nick as a spirit animal, which I still don’t understand what it means. A lot of those people were like ‘He better finish with her, this better work out,’ so I wanted that to happen.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Day! We know that teachers are always trying to make us better as students, but what about them? Today is Teacher Appreciation Day and even though we're not in school anymore we still have a few teachers that we want to show some love to this year. Which teachers you ask? Well, our favorite TV teachers obviously! They might not have taught us how to use multiplication or given us a history lesson, but TV teachers did help us learn and grow up. Whether it was Mr. Feeny (William Daniels) on Boy Meets World giving us very applicable life advice or Jessica Day (Zooey Deschanel) on New Girl revealing that learning happens at all ages, teachers on screen have made us better.

Jessica Day (Zooey Deschanel), your nose is growing.
The seventh and final season of “New Girl” begins Tuesday with a premiere that picks up approximately three years after last year’s finale, and sees Jess and the gang having progressed significantly in their respective lives. Well, most of them have.
In the preview clip above from the Fox comedy’s season-opener, exclusive to TheWrap, Jess runs into her ex Russell aka “Fancyman” (Dermot Mulroney) at a birthday party for Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and Cece’s (Hannah Simone) daughter Ruth (Rhiannon and Danielle Rockoff).

The two start chatting about how she’s left the world of teaching, and how maybe she should go work for him (she still has no idea what he does for a living, by the way). However, Jess gets embarrassed when her relationship with Nick (Jake Johnson) comes up. The couple — finally dating successfully for the past three years — have just returned from a European book tour for Nick’s best-seller, “The Pepperwood Chronicles.”
But Russell is shocked they haven’t made it to the altar yet — let alone gotten engaged. Wait, maybe they have and Jess was just confused there for a second. Oh, yeah, this will go well.
Watch the clip above.

Since “New Girl” arrived on Netflix, it has been binge-watched by millions of viewers who have pretty similar feelings about the show: it is amazing. With the perfect combination of ‘90s sweetness (think Full House hugs and lessons learned) and smart, witty banter (think The Office without the dryness) this show really knocks audiences off their feet with comedy. “New Girl” follows a story of Jessica Day (Zooey Deschanel) who finds herself moving into a loft apartment with three rather different men. Two of these men, Nick Miller (Jake Johnson) and Schmidt (Max Greenfield), have been buddies since they were
