I have a new favorite TV show - The Mindy Project. Obviously, I realize this show is not new, however I'm trying to unload my queue of crime shows, and substitute in a few lighter comedies that don't leave me worried or frightened to fall asleep before bed (as most of my current crime shows usually do). I'm thinking this is a good plan...
Anyway, I've always been a fan of Mindy Kaling. I enjoyed her as Kelly Kapoor in the Office, I read her book, so I'm figuring, it was only a matter of time before joining the ranks of her TV followers. First, I enjoy all the characters; especially her love/hate interest; Chris Messina (a.k.a. Danny Castellano), loved him initially as the doting husband in Julie & Julia. Plus, I can relate to Mindy's characters obsession with rom coms. Pretty sure I own every movie she recites dutifully throughout the first few episodes, (You've Got Mail, Notting Hill, Sleepless in Seattle, should I go on?).
Alright, I think I've made my pitch. If you haven't jumped on the bandwagon yet, watch the pilot, it's supremely entertaining.

Initially, I wasn't that into it. It started off a little weak for me, but it progressively got better. I think the last half of the season is much stronger than the first. Now I adore the show! My favorite character is Morgan. Always makes me laugh!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. As with any new show, it can take a few episodes to fall in love with the characters. This one and The New Girl are my current favorites!
ReplyDeleteI love the Mindy Project too!
ReplyDeleteI've wanted to watch it. I'm going to have to find a way to.
ReplyDeleteI've only watched a couple episodes of this show but you're right, it's awesome and totally relatable.

I literally JUST finished this show on Hulu, like, last week (and then watched the finale from this week). I watched the pilot originally and couldn't get into it, but I think I suffer from TV ADD, because I never like a show unless I watch 4 episodes in a row and then I'm hooked. It's super funny!
ReplyDeleteI think this has been my favorite new show this season. Sad I have to wait until fall for new episodes now.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Mindy. I seriously laugh out loud when I watch the show.
