When New Girl's Jess (Zooey Deschanel) hit the sitcom scene, she was touted as the ultimate in adorable, excuse us, "adorkable." Those doe eyes, romantic notions and made-up songs — so cute! To a point, that is. And we've reached that point where we want to slap her overactive jazz hands and strangle TV's resident manic pixie dream girl once and for all.

In fact, several other TV characters are more lovable than what Jess has become. Keep on clicking to see the possible usurpers of the throne of adorableness.
