Minday Kaling stars in FOX's new comedy The Mindy Project, a series that follows a physician navigating her personal and professional lives.
While Mindy Kaling herself was all sorts of lovable, her show on the other hand, was not. Besides a rather hilarious opening scene and another one in a taxi cab, the pilot episode was a bit underwhelming. The series also stars Chris Messina as Danny Castellano, the good-natured and brutally honest co-worker of Mindy, and Ed Weeks as the charismatic British boy toy Jeremy Reed.
But besides a few funny bits from the first episode, Mindy Kaling has a long way to go to cement herself as leading material in the comedy genre. She certainly does not have as much appeal as, say Zooey Deschanel in New Girl, and with a show that solely rides on her shoulders, The Mindy Project has a lot of retooling that needs to be done.
