Elizabeth Meriwether Pictures, American Nitwits, 20th Century Fox
1-2-3-4 JFK-FDR!! Fox recently announced New Girl would return this Fall for its seventh and final season. Let's pray their last 8-episode run includes another round of True American, invented by Nick, Winston, Coach and Schmidt that’s 50% drinking game, 50% life-size Candy Land. True American provides the perfect opportunity for the residents of the loft to scatter, drink heavily and make up ridiculous rules–the floor is lava and the couch is the Mason-Dixon Line, etc. Bonus, the game provides Jess with the opportunity to avoiding feelings, a kiss, or even an anticipated proposal. The roommates of Apt 4D have elevated drinking to an art-form with cans of beer and bottles of whiskey lined up like soldiers ready for their command.
The last time I even attempted the New Girl level of merry-making was at a local Mexican restaurant. Two jalapeño margaritas in, I started referring to the bartender as 'Spicy Delight.' No True American here. I'm more of a binge watcher than a binge drinker. This 4th of July, raise whatever you got to the True Americans everywhere (In Season 5, Episode 21, that’d be Coach). See you this Fall on FOX!
