Plot line: After many months of living together in an LA loft, six former strangers develop friendships that will last forever. Sound familiar? Yes, it's the story of New Girl! Also, chances are, your college crew was somehow thrown together at random and contains as many various forms of goobers as the New Girl clan does. Each individual in your friend group brings something different to the table and that is exactly why they have been able to put up with your shenanigans for so long. Every person has his or her own quirks, and New Girl did a pretty good job of pinpointing the different character traits present in a crazy close crew. Most likely, you can find a little bit of each of the following characters in someone that you know as one of your best friends.
Schmidt: If this utterly insane person walked out of your day to day life, you would have no one to tell you everything there is to know about the newest and weirdest things that he finds completely revolutionary. You never know what is going to come out of this man's mouth, but you can always guarantee that it is going to be something that leaves you laughing. He is simply too much to handle for mostly everyone but you and your friends couldn't imagine your life without him and his slightly enlarged ego and attention to detail. You also appreciate his tendency to speak directly from his heart.
Nick: The chill one. The flannel wearer. The inventor of many silly faces, sarcastic jokes and ways to fix things that he is too lazy to do on his own. He seems rough on the outside but you know he has a soft spot somewhere deep down under his no f's given exterior. He's a secret, sensitive soul but most days you just enjoy his company for his tell it like it is mentality.
Jess: The eternal optimist. The artsy, sometimes embarrassing, but at the end of the day straight up goober that is impossible not to love. This girl's bright disposition could blind the sun and although she seems to always be getting herself into strange social situations, she is confident and not afraid to be herself. She never fails to lend a helping hand to whoever asks for it, even if it will not benefit her in any way. She is basically the embodiment of a Funfetti cupcake.
Winston: This guy's always got your back. He may not be so good with the ladies, but he's the best sidekick, when he doesn't spill the beans on who you've been crushing on (whoops Cece). Overall, he is the one that tends to fly under the radar to people who don't necessarily know you and your friends. He's a little on the weirder side but who's counting. He's just as much a part of your friendly fam as everyone else and you love him!
Coach: The athletic one. He's in it to win it in everything he does and his competitive attitude is what makes him his own character in your crew. He isn't one of the "ride or die" all the time because he is regularly busy doing his own thing, but he was an original member of the group so his presence is always welcomed.
Cece: The girl in the group that gets all the attention. She could wear a sack better than any pile of potatoes out there and she has manipulative powers like none other, especially over the Schmidt of the group. Between Cece's straight up sass and Schmidt's obsession with the finer things in life, these two characters have been known to have serious chemistry.
