You don’t get to watch shows like New Girl easily. New Girl was a quirky and hilarious sitcom that came to an end after 7 stellar seasons. Like me, if you too miss watching New Girl and want another group of funny characters, worry not as there are plenty of other equally entertaining shows to binge on.
We’ve made a list of shows like New Girl to direct your binging efforts in a better way.
Two Broke Girls (2011-2017)
Available on:Â Amazon Prime
When talking about shows like New Girl, this one comes first in my mind. Two Broke Girls is a three-camera sitcom that is untraditional, particularly for CBS. Laboriously filled with drug and sexual imputation, it is more than a story about two 20-somethings working to make it in up-and-coming Brooklyn. A mix of Odd Couple and Alice, the show stars Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs as counterparts who end up as roommates. Where the show’s main focus was originally the duo, Two Broke Girls ultimately developed to cover stories of the other quirky characters.
Shrill (2019-)
Saturday Night Live fame Aidy Bryant took her bubbly brightness from that program and put it to good use in Hulu’s Shrill. In the sitcom, Aidy’s character, Annie, is set for a big change. But, she needs to do it without changing her body. Everywhere in the series, she deals with terrible boyfriends and bosses while dealing with ill parents.
Young Houngry (2014-2018)
You get to watch Emily Osment after Hannah Montana in Young & Hungry. The popular sitcom stars Osment as Gabi, a Florida transplant who lies in San Francisco and is the personal chef to tech guru Josh Kaminski. Gabi’s life gets difficult when she has a one-night stand with Josh. Their on-and-off relationship becomes the underlying plot point everywhere in the show.
