Is "New Girl" Zooey Deschanel The Next (Gasp) Mary Tyler Moore?! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

So this is a big deal, starring in your own show. Do you feel like Mary Tyler Moore?

Oh my gosh, I feel so happy, it's so nice, I'm having the best time working on this show. It's a dream come true. I didn't set out for this at all. I had actually taken a couple of years off acting. I was doing my music, touring with my band. I was sort of looking for the next thing to do but I hadn't really thought about doing a network show. I'd been looking for interesting characters which is very hard to find, and if you do it's often the smallest part in a movie. But I'd sort of put myself in that mindset that if I wanted to play interesting characters, I would just have to take small parts and be ok with that, and then I got this script and I fell in love with the character. I told them I was interested and they offered me the part. It happened very quickly.

Nah. I want to say she's the next Marlo Thomas, but she makes Ann Marie seem as perky as Daria Morgendorffer.
