Have you guys heard that Mindy Kaling will star in a new sitcom this fall? “The Mindy Project” is all about a quirky OB/GYN who’s trying to figure out her messy dating life. As Salon points out, the premise sounds pretty typical, but Kaling is so awesome and funny (and Emmy-nominated) that the show sounds promising. Here’s the trailer. Will you be watching the show?

I’m also going to opt out on this. I think it’s funny that Mindy Kaling so adeptly pointed out the cliche female characters portrayed in movies and shows, but she can’t step outside of them. A doctor that ditsy is a doctor I would never go to.
Sorry, it might end up being a funny show, but it just comes across as an unsophisticated copy of Australian tv show Offspring…. which is about a quirky OB/GYN navigating her messy love life. I’m surprised Kaling can’t come up with an original idea.
I’m pretty sure her mom is an OB/GYN so it’s kind of fun that she is playing one. I assume she is writing the show as well? I bet she gets a lot of material from her mom!
