Nick Miller wasn't the luckiest man when it came to women, but he dated some interesting characters throughout New Girl. Created by Elizabeth Meriwether, New Girl premiered on Fox in 2011 and came to an end in 2018 after seven seasons. New Girl was very well received from the beginning and was praised for its tone and the performances of its main cast, particularly those of Max Greenfield and Jake Johnson, who became the breakout stars of the show.
New Girl followed Jess Day (Zooey Deschanel), a bubbly teacher who after finding out that her boyfriend was cheating on her, moved into a loft with three strangers she found on the internet. After a period of adjustment that wasn’t easy for anyone, especially after how sudden it all was, Jess became very close to her roommates Schmidt (Greenfield), Nick Miller (Johnson), and Winston (Lamorne Morris), with her best friend Cece (Hannah Simone) also joining the fun and becoming a part of this one-of-a-kind family. Jess ended up marrying Nick, who went from an irresponsible adult to a successful author and family man, and during that process, he dated different women.
At the beginning of New Girl, Nick was trying to recover from breaking up with his long-time girlfriend Caroline (Mary Elizabeth Ellis), with whom he got back towards the end of season 1, only to break up again a couple of episodes later. After that, Nick had a fling with his coworker Amanda (Lake Bell), which only lasted one episode. He then started dating Julia (Lizzy Caplan), but just as the relationship was starting to get serious and Nick freaked out, they broke up. Then came Angie (Olivia Munn) a stripper Nick started dating after meeting at the bar he worked at. Their relationship was very intense, but Angie was a free spirit, and she left Nick.
Now jumping to New Girl season 4, Nick started dating Kai (Greta Lee), the granddaughter of his mysterious (but very wise) friend Tran (Ralph Ahn), and while she enjoyed staying on the couch with Nick, their relationship didn’t last. Then came one of Nick’s most memorable and important relationships: the one with Reagan (Megan Fox). Jess was absent in New Girl season 5, and Reagan arrived to rent her room for a while and during that time, she started dating Nick. Their relationship continued after she moved out, but came to an end in season 6 due to her having issues communicating her feelings. Last but not least is Jess, whom he kissed in season 2 during a drinking game, marking the beginning of their not-so-smooth relationship. It took them a while to decide to become a couple, and some time later, they broke up.
Both Nick and Jess dated different people after that, but they still had feelings for each other. Nick and Jess got back together at the end of season 6, with the final season of New Girl making a three-year jump and focusing on their now stable relationship, their engagement, and their disastrous but meaningful wedding. In total, Nick dated seven women throughout New Girl, and just like Schmidt and Winston, he ended up meeting his other half.
