Jamie Lee Curtis reveals how filming New Girl was ‘awful’ and ‘not fun’ for her
Jamie Lee Curtis has revealed she disliked filming New Girl because of its single-camera format, contrasting it with her fondness for multi-camera sitcoms and live-audience performances.
Jamie Lee Curtis expressed her dislike for working on the single-camera sitcom New Girl, despite appreciating the show as a whole. The actor, who portrayed Joan Day, the mother of Zooey Deschanel's character Jess, found the production process akin to making a film. Curtis noted the absence of laughter from the audience and the silent atmosphere during filming, labeling it "awful" and "not fun".
This preference for multi-camera sitcoms reflects Curtis' long-standing preference for the format, as she previously starred in the Golden Globe-winning ABC sitcom Anything But Love.
