Megan Fox to replace Zooey Deschanel on New Girl for awhile

And now we can add one more to the list, though this one seems to be more temporary. Megan Fox will be replacing Zooey Deschanel during the the fifth season of Fox’s comedy series New Girl as the titular star of the series goes on maternity leave after having her first child last month. But for fans who may be upset, this Megan Fox New Girl stint is only temporary.
quote:
So how are they going to explain the absence of Jess in the apartment? The quirky school teacher will find herself sequestered during jury duty, and thus will not be appearing on the show at that time.
This turn of events forces Nick (Jake Johnson), Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and Winston (Lamorne Harris) to have someone rent out Jess’ room, and a new girl (hey-o!) named Reagan (Fox) takes residence there temporarily. Reagan is described as a “gorgeous, straight-shooting pharmaceutical sales rep who comes to town on business and shakes things up in the loft.” Surely the guys will be taken aback by someone as gorgeous as Fox in the loft, so that should make for some solid comedy.

The good news is that fans will still get plenty of Deschanel next season. The actress was able to shoot some fifth season stuff earlier this year with production continuing even after the fourth season was wrapped. The absence of Deschanel for maternity leave is also being offset by the fact that New Girl won’t return to Fox until January 2016 as opposed to the usual fall debut. As for Fox, she won’t pop up until the sixth episode of the new season.

I don't like this...

I'll bet she's got surprisingly good comic timing... based on the fact that many of her performances are kinda hilarious whether intended or not.

It's not ideal but let's not act like Jess is what makes the show.
Now this I don't like

This show suffers from How I Met Your Mother syndrome, the focus of the show is one of the worst regular characters.

quote:well TBH if you have followed the writers realized this after the first few episodes and since then the writeing has been geared to the group as a whole. The first few episodes centered on Zoey and she just couldnt deliver and they saw that.

I think it is more of the Cougar Town syndrome, where they name the show after something and the show morphs into something else. It really is similar to a quirky "Friends"

Schmidt makes the show honestly.

Schmidt is definitely the best character, and with Coach gone hopefully he'll thrive again.

I thought Megan Fox was really funny in "This is 40," and in that she played a girl who all of the guys were hitting on. I think this is a great move by the show.

100% agree.
Fat Schmidt is one of my all time favorite characters

I think Winston has really come along in the last two seasons.

That show is the same damn jokes every week. And now that Damon Wayans Jr. is gone again I won't be watching.

Haha wow
Coach sucked so bad. Had his moments but as a whole just wasn't good

Ted sucks. Jess sucks.
But the focus on the "straight man" makes sense as you don't get overwhelmed with a characters over the top traits. Barney and schmidt can't carry a show because they are too ridiculous. They (nick, schmidt, Winston) make the show great because they aren't the focus.
