"I'm excited for the finale because it's, like, after that sex scene where does it go from there?!"

Leave it to Mindy Kaling to ask exactly what all of us New Girl fans were thinking! While we were grilling stars Zooey Deschanel, Jake Johnson and Max Greenfield at Fox's upfront presentation for scoop on tonight's Taylor Swift-filled finale, The Mindy Project creator hopped right in to help us out—and to gush over the Fox sitcom.

"That's the best show ever," she raved after hugging the trio.

But not even Kaling's adorable fan moment with Deschanel, Johnson and Greenfield could throw us off as we wanted, nay needed, scoop on what's ahead for Nick and Jess! Plus, what finale shenanigans are in store for Schmidt (Greenfield)?

To hear more from Deschanel and the guys, including what a crossover episode with The Mindy Project would look like, watch our interview with them above!
