The Golden Globe nominated sitcom, which also stars Jake Johnson, Max Greenfield, Lamorne Morris and Hannah Simone, follows Jess Day (Deschanel), a quirky school teacher in her late 20s who moves in with a group of guys following a breakup.

New Girl has proved a hit in the US and has also performed well in the UK for E4, where series two is about to land.

Meanwhile, Fox has ordered returns for New Girl stablemates The Following, Raising Hope and The Mindy Project.
