“New Girl” book 📚 ↓
POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
This book was so much fun! I started off unsure if I would like it but then I ending up loving it! It was so fun to hear some behind the scenes information and casting stuff. I loved the show quotes that started each chapter. And I loved that Robbie was a narrator too! I loved hearing how to writers developed the characters and their personalities and how they evolved over time. I remember being SO excited for the pilot episode. I watched it in college and my college bf’s tv was awful so with the first commercial break, I ran to our tv lounge room on the hall and watched. And it was always on my radar to make sure I was back at the dorm for New Girl! I stopped watching as consistently around season 3 probably. But then when it came to Netflix and I could binge it, I used to binge it all the time. It was always on when I lived alone. In my dating profile, I used to have it listed that I’ve seen New Girl from beginning to end at least 100 times 😂 and I always cried at Schmidt and Cece’s wedding lol. I really need a rewatch, I just don’t watch tv much since having kids! ❓Are you a New Girl fan? #bookreview #newgirl #momswhoread

Julia also serves as an executive producer. All eight episodes premiere November 19 on Netflix.

Just some recent Publisher Bookmail that I’ve gotten over the months! Keep swiping for diff captions with each photo! (You can see my highlights too if you’re ever curious of what else I’ve recieved) This New Girl Bookmail literally had me so excited and to tears because this show is my all time favorite show and my comfort to rewatch constantly, so it felt so cool and incredible that I got to recieve this package from SMP! Thank you @stmartinspress for the gifted copy! This package was THE BEST. I love anything witchy and mystical like and this whole PR package and book screamed it. I am so excited to dive into this one! It comes out soon too so I’m definitely going to be picking this up over the weekend to read! Thank you to @minotaur_books and @stmartinspress for this gorgeous and lovely package! This PR box was such a fun one to open. The outside of the box is a cassette tape style and as a music lover I am forever keeping this box for sure because it’s the coolest. When SMP sent out the forms for the early readers to request books this was one that definitely grasped my attention and I am so excited to read this when I get to it because it sounds good! The little photo of the book was such a beautiful addition to the box, along with the lip balm (which by the way taste and looks SO GOOD on me when it changes color so it’s now a favorite of mine) Thank you to @stmartinspress for this box! I am so thankful of all the gifted copies I have received from you guys when I was in the program and I all ready to devour all of them!

What’s your favorite tv show? Or most rewatched? If you know me at all, you know I LOOOOOOVE New Girl. It’s my ULTIMATE comfort show. Panic attack? Flare? Painsomnia? New Girl relaxes me to where I can fall asleep or at least feel better 🤍 So it was fitting that this deep dive into my favorite show released on my birthday this year. (The universe decided to revolve around me for this one particular instance, it seems.) And let me tell you, reading this was a TREAT!! I never wanted it to end. You can tell that @theaglassman is a true stan as well. (Swipe for that dedication, iykyk.) As a massive fan I was concerned that I’d learn nothing new, but at least I’d get to revisit stories from the set & maybe get to know the writers better. Um, I was very wrong. I learned SO much about not only the show & cast itself, but the tv industry, the decision-making behind certain plotlines (Schmidt cheating love triangle? The lopsided, extra short final season?), & brand new anecdotes to complement the familiar stories we know and love (the Prince episode, why Winston’s character took so long to stabilize). My biggest takeaways: -The show really wouldn’t exist without Zooey -The cast & writers room really fought for every season, every episode to air. Their love meant literally losing sleep. -The show is probably more improv than scripted lines -Every contribution you make to a team matters, down to whether or not you laugh at a joke or alt -I really do love the Regan plotlines This is the PERFECT gift for a New Girl fan. So there you go. One of your holiday presents, already planned, with months to spare. 🎀🧢🐈🍻🏀👠🏠

Thank you @stmartinspress for my #gifted copy  This was such a great show. I especially loved Zooey Deschanel❤️  Synopsis ⤵️  Go inside the writers’ room and onto the set of the honorary queen of comfort shows—with exclusive interviews from the creator, cast, writers, directors, and crew. Since its finale, New Girl has quietly become one of the most rewatched shows in streaming history—a certified comfort classic. Taking the well-worn hangout sitcom formula and giving it a weird, wonderful twist, the series landed in that rare space between Friends-style warmth and sheer comedic chaos. Sitcom conventions were bent (if not broken), as the cast and writers shaped characters in real time—from Nick Miller’s legendary “turtle face” and Winston’s codependent relationship with his cat, to Schmidt’s endless barrage of absurd, quotable one-liners. More than just a sitcom, New Girl became a generational touchstone, embedding itself in pop culture and personal routines alike. Fans still yell “No notes!” at friends, argue over the rules of True American, and nod to the Douchebag Jar as a model of self-regulation. It’s the show that made “adorkable” a household word, gave Prince and Taylor Swift two of TV’s greatest cameos, and delivered some of the most beloved moments in modern comedy—like the slow-burn brilliance of Nick and Jess’s kiss, the utter chaos of Prank Sinatra, or Schmidt’s passionate monologue about “chut-a-ney.” In Who’s That Girl, entertainment journalist Thea Glassman takes readers behind the scenes with in-depth interviews with creator Liz Meriwether and the creative team, telling the story of how a scrappy, offbeat pilot evolved into a streaming juggernaut. Packed with heart, hilarity, and never-before-heard stories, this is the definitive tribute to the ultimate feel-good show. ❓ Have you watched New Girl❓ #whosthatgirl #stmartinspress #smpinfluencer

Give me a cookie or whatever Nick Miller said - Bennie. Listening to this book calls for another rewatch. I could do that ALL DAY. If you love the roommates of Apt 4D as much as I do, this is a must read. I loved feeling “behind the scenes” and hearing the stories behind all of my favorite jokes and plot lines of one of the best shows. I enjoyed hearing how much improv was done on set and how much they really let each actor dig into their character, make them their own, and figure out how to make them shine (though honestly with the interviews I’ve seen of most of the cast, they are truly SO much like their characters in the best way possible). It was also so interesting to get a peek into the corporate games/politics and what all goes into production of a TV series — from the success to the rocky parts, this cast was in it together and it’s truly inspiring how they all gave it their all until the very end. Ok that’s all - read this book asap or you gotta put money in the jar. 🫙 Thank you to NetGalley and Macmillan audio for an advanced listening copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

✨Book Review✨ Who’s That Girl Thea Glassman Pub Date: July 2026 🎥Blurb: Go inside the writers’ room and onto the set of the honorary queen of comfort shows—with exclusive interviews from the creator, cast, writers, directors, and crew. 💭Thoughts: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve loved New Girl since watching the first episode back in 2011! I even named one of my cats Schmidt! 🤣 It’s still a comfort watch for me when I need a good laugh! I was excited to see Who’s That Girl was publishing and couldn’t wait to get a behind the scenes look at the show! This book was really entertaining! I enjoyed every bit of it! I loved reading how the show started out and evolved over the years! Learning that the actors were able to help develop their characters. The things that made the show and the things that didn’t. Plus how the iconic kiss between Nick and Jessica came to be! If you’re a fan of New Girl, then I definitely recommend picking up a copy of this book! QOTD: Have you ever watched New Girl?
