Damon Wayans Jr’s Coach was one of the original loft residents in New Girl, but he left after the pilot episode. Wayans returned in season 3 and was promoted to a series regular in season 4, after which he left again. Created by Elizabeth Meriwether, New Girl debuted on Fox in 2011 and came to an end in 2018 after seven seasons. New Girl was very well received by critics and audiences, who praised the series’ sense of humor and the performances of the main cast, especially that of Max Greenfield, who was considered the breakout star of season 1.
