Netflix has been hosting the highly acclaimed sitcom New Girl for about one decade now. The broadcast giant acquired the streaming rights back in 2013 following the huge debut it made in the US. Unfortunately, viewers will not be able to access comedy drama anymore on this platform and have to bid adieu to their beloved show soon. However, fans who are getting unnerved by this sudden announcement need not worry. Since we have collected all the information about why this series will no longer be available on Netflix and where you can go and watch the sitcom.

So both platforms will have access to all 146 episodes aka seven seasons from April 17, 2023.
