Okay, so, I’m feeling a little sour today. Fox has announced that they are cancelling The Mindy Project, and I am heartbroken. Watching Mindy Lahiri and her ridiculous escapades has provided me with endless amounts of joy and entertainment. FOX, WE’RE NOT FRIENDS ANYMORE.
Okay, I get that this last season of The Mindy Project may not have been like A+ material, but it was still super enjoyable and I want to know what happens next! I hope that some streaming media site picks its up became it’s an absolute gem. (Edit: It was picked up by Hulu! YAYAY)
Mindy Kaling is my best friend (I wish). She is so funny, smart, and successful.
The Mindy Project really brought her and her talent into the spotlight! I loved her work on The Office and instantly fell in love with her most recent character Dr. Mindy Lahiri. And her clothes, have I mentioned her clothes? She is one stylish chica (both real Mindy and TV Mindy). Srsly, follow her instagram.
After the first season of The Mindy Project totally slayed me, I was obsessed. It’s so hilarious. Remember when Mindy, in the thralls of some sort of relationship-related turmoil, would just sprawl out on the floor? So funny. I always got the biggest kick out of that. I think that is one of the things I missed most in this most recent (LAST?!) season. Mindy wasn't single so her shenanigans were much more reigned in. She was still as crazy as ever, but she was doing less crazy, funny things. Although, I did appreciate the episode this season that had all her ex-boyfriends in it, curtesy of Morgan! That was sooo funny.
Who is your favourite of Mindy's boyfriends? She's dated so many strange, crazy, guys. I think my favourite was one she just went out on a date with... But couldn't bring herself to keep seeing. He was that skater guy played by Timothy Oliphant.
I then learned that Mindy had written a book—a memoir of sorts—called Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns). I loved it! It’s a short, enjoyable book of essays about Mindy’s life and work. I loved reading about her and her friend’s play Matt & Ben. It sounds so ridiculous. I died laughing. Also, the pictures from when she was little. So funny, cute, & awkward <3.
The best part is she’s coming out with another book in the fall! It’s called Why Not Me? and they've just released the cover! Actually, I lied. That’s not the best part. But it contributes to the best part! The best part is that Mindy Kaling is going to be at BEA (Book Expo America) this year! And I’m going! And she’s going to be signing ARCs of her new book! I’m dying with excitement. I’M GOING TO SEE MINDY KALING WITH MY VERY OWN EYEBALLS. I’M GOING TO GET HER SIGNATURE. I’M GOING TO DIE. It’s also very cool because at BookCon (which I am also going to—Saturday & Sunday after BEA), Mindy and BJ Novak are doing a panel! I really hope to go to it! I’m going to have to try really hard to appear to be a normal human. Because I will want to scream and jump into Mindy’s arms.
Do you share my love of Mindy Kaling (and Mindy Lahiri)? Are you inwardly (or outwardly) CRYING because The Mindy Project was cancelled? What makes you get your fangirl (or boy) on?
.....Now for some bonus Mindy GIFs, JUST BECAUSE I CAN AND YOU CAN'T STOP ME.
