The most recent season averaged 2.9 million viewers and a 1.5 rating among adults 18-49.
But next season is definitively billed as the final round for the trend-setting series.
Its easy to forget this today, butNew Girlwas pioneering when released in 2011.
Titles that clearly owed some debt toNew Girlincluded Foxs ownThe Mindy Project, and CBS2 Broke Girls.
I think theres still stuff that has to be done with all the characters.
I think theres a lot of fun to be had there.
