The Mindy Project

It started off well...a little bit over the top...but a good story structure in the background...

until it hit a bump and never recovered...and it was soooo sooo bad...

the male nurse guy is overdone...what is it with comedy and the dumb character....don't stretch it...it stops being comedy...

The side characters can be funny, especially Ike Barinholtz's character, but essentially if you don't think you can grow to love Mindy as the flawed and often self-centred protagonist (basically a more developed "Kelly" from the Office) you probably won't enjoy this show.

I'm surprised the ratings aren't a little higher for "The Mindy Project" - with a lot of the crap out there, "The Mindy Project" is refreshingly quite funny. The characters are quirky, and I have a smile on my face pretty much the whole time I am watching the show. It's a nice break from all the drama filled teenage/girls/vampire shows that seem to be all the rave right now.

This a light fun filled comedy, that i'd compare to "Parks and Rec" and "The Office." So if you like those shows then you'll probably like this one as well.

It's about a young doctor who is living similar lives to many woman in their earlier 30's. Can't find someone to settle down with but has a career and a nice friend base at her office. She's surrounded by characters who are mostly in the same boat as her.

The show is fast paced and filed with nutty dialogue and makes for a perfect show to watch during lunch, or if you need a break from hectic life.

I must admit, when I originally started to watch the show I had low expectations. Mainly because though I'd previously enjoyed Mindy Kaling's portrayal of Kelly Kapoor on The Office (US), I'd seen characters who are hilarious in supporting roles not be able to translate that humor into an entire show based around them as the lead character... I'm looking at you cast of Seinfeld. However, I was pleasantly surprised to be completely wrong in this case.

This really is a great show that doesn't take itself to seriously. Also, I thoroughly enjoy the soundtrack. But the dialogue is where it's at... I'm actively working to make my friends converts for the show so I can start quoting it more... "We get it, you're smarter than us because you read the newspaper" -- it's like Mindy read my mind, people who read the news are just the worst, surpassed only by morning people.

I watched this show because I liked The Office US and I thought this would be kind of like a spinoff type thing. It's not like that at all.

I mean that in a good way of course. I think that the show had similarities to The Office US but to be honest I thought it was like an entirely different show.

The acting is brilliant, the story is quite sad but fun and it manages to be pretty good throughout the whole thing. I'm not saying it became really bad in the last few seasons because I feel like that would be a bit demeaning but it doesn't fall off at all.

I recommend this show for fans of The Office US, fans of Brooklyn 99, fans of Community and just fans of shows that shows that revolve around a woman.
