Ask Elizabeth Meriwether About \'New Girl\'

Patrick McElhenney/FOX Jake Johnson and Zooey Deschanel in last night’s episode of “New Girl.”

Previously we heard from the creators of “Modern Family,” “Homeland” and “Justified.”

Since beginning in 2011 as a showcase for Zooey Deschanel’s allegedly adorable awkwardness (or vice versa), Foxâ€s “New Girl” has evolved into a well-regarded team effort. Max Greenfield’s Schmidt, though perhaps not quite in Ron Swanson territory, has attained something close to cult status. Jake Johnson, meanwhile, has emerged as Ms. Deschanel’s likable will-they-or-won’t-they partner, a subplot that â€" in a sitcom’s riskiest move â€" received a bit of resolution in Tuesday’s episode.

This week Elizabeth Meriwether, the creator of “New Girl,” is taking your questions about the show. Please post your queries in the comments below â€" we’ll pose some of them to Ms. Meriwether and post her answers here! next week.
