New Girl

Created by: Liz Meriwether
First aired in: 2011
Channel: E4

Liz Meriwether created one of the most lovable characters on TV with New Girl's Jess. Played by Zooey Deschanel, Jess' heartbreak is the entry point of the show but it soon centres around her relationships with her hilarious (and slightly wacky) group of friends.
