I'd be curious to see the breakdown of how much the three "Anex" writer/actors contributed to the overall show, and who was involved with what plotlines. Mindy's plot as an actor always was "Kelly (Super white name for an actor who got her skin bleached + made a White girl named Kelly change her name in show) is worth completely self destructing for a ultimately incompetent White executive, is super clingy but ultimately nobody dislikes her, and gets to yell at people without consequence". Obviously writers can make their played characters annoying, but it felt like there was a shade of envy in the creation and acting process, which brings to question how much of what people liked about The Office actually was from Mindy.
Just as a fan of the show, every time she gets largely involved in the plot it's a surefire mediocre episode. Any time a joke tries to be made about her it's like "Don't tell Kelly she's a horrible gossip" and I just wonder to myself why does anyone give a fuck about talking to her, it's not even an interesting and variable plot it just blankly gives a point of pressure on the much better parts.
Hahahaha holy shit I wasn't expecting 'Mindy Kaling is a Nazi' to be the cope of choice.
Mindy Kaling was always a talentless hack, but she gets a blank check because she's personally a leftists wet dream:
is a "brown person" but raised as a left wing elite. dad architect, mom doctor.
went to Dartmouth. studied Latin.
pushes the "child of immigrants" thing hard. it works. the Left adores her for it and uses her to showcase how they L-l-l-l-l-ove immigrants
She got famous from The Office. She's has multiple failures since then and nobody learns their lesson.

yeah Mindy was one of the worst things about The Office.
