New Girl is fricken' hilarious! I watched all of season 1 of Mindy and although it had some funny moments, it really hasn't gotten beyond just being an average show for me right now. I checked out the sneak peak for Season 2 premiere episode and found it very lacking, even with guest star James Franco. As for New Girl, you gotta give it a few episodes for it to click because a lot of the humor is based on on their relationships and some of the stuff that has happened previously on earlier episodes. It did take me a couple of episodes myself to get it. Once I did, it has produce some gut busting laughs for me.
