Fox's New Girl was happy to rip the Band-Aid on at least one "will they or won't they?" duo during its freshman season. Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and Cece (Hannah Simone) recently ended up in bed after an unsuccessful Valentine's playing wingmen to Jess (Zooey Deschanel).

"The stuff with Cece continues," Greenfield told The Hollywood Reporter at last week's PaleyFest event for New Girl. "Is it easy? Oh no, it's not easy. Schmidt is holding on for dear life with his little fingernails just in there."
One thing that's proving difficult for Greenfield in real life is maintaining the level of partial nudity he seems to achieve on the show every week.
"I'd like to stop dieting and working out for a minute," he said. "Here's the thing. We're on episode 21. I can't keep this up.
