The New Girl we can't get enough of: Zooey Deschanel

Oh my goodness . . . can Zooey Deschanel do no wrong?

Of all the things I look forward to in life, new television programs don't typically make the cut. It's true that I recently stumbled upon the horribly wonderful reality show Love in the Wild and bring it up at work EVERY Thursday morning, but new television shows can all-too-often be such unfulfilling forms of entertainment that they often slip from their time slots without anyone (espcially me) noticing.

However, big screen starlet, Zooey Deschanel, paying me a visit on those dreary Tuesday nights sounds almost too good to be true! Hello New Girl!

The Gist: The quirky and "adorkable" Jess (Deschanel) finds new roommates after experiencing a traumatic and rather odd break-up. Each with their own distinct personalities, the three male roomies reluctantly take her in and help her get back in the game. Together, along with Jess's professional model BF, form a happily dysfunctional (and hopefully hilarious) family. Check out the trailer below:

Fun Fact: Besides being the obvious star of New Girl, Zooey also wrote and recorded the show's theme song!

New Girl premieres Tuesday, Sept. 20th at 9:00pm on FOX.

Anyone else looking forward to the New Girl?

After a chilly winter, I'm ready for a little singing and dancing to welcome in the spring season ... the spring season of Glee, that is.

Growing in fans and popularity, the bright-eyed talents in Glee Club are back on air Tuesday, April 13! Mark the date on your calendar, and get psyched by watching the preview below.

I see new songs and new romances budding in Glee's future. Remember the long-awaited kiss between Emma and Will at the end of the last season? Whew, that oughta warm things up for spring ...

Get Glee and Start Singin'

Keeping up with The Office, How I Met Your Mother, Mad Men and Project Runway, I hardly believed I had room in my busy TV schedule to get hooked on yet another show. However, some shows are worth staying up a bit later for.

I admit, I was a bit skeptical when Fox's Glee first aired this fall. Really? Another hour of teen angst? No thanks.

But...it turns out I was wrong. Glee makes me gleeful with its wit, humor and ability to poke fun at the cliched scenarios of your traditional high school drama. These kids are smart, talented, and underdogs. How refreshing. Even the head cheerleader and captain of the football team have their issues.

It all starts with McKinley High's Spanish teacher, Will Schuester, and his ambition to get the Glee Club up and rolling again. Incorporating the oldies, the classics and new pop songs with dance, the Glee Club starts making noise all over the school, attracting both praise and the malicious intent of cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester, played by the hilarious Jane Lynch.

You can catch Glee Wednesday nights at 9/8c. You don't want to miss it; I mean, where else are you going to see a high school football team start bustin' a move to Beyonce's "All the Single Ladies?"
