The Mindy Project is a biting new single-camera comedy from Emmy Award-nominated writer/producer and New York Times best-selling author Mindy Kaling that follows a woman who, despite having a successful career, is unlucky in love and desperately needs to get her personal life back on track before her friends and colleagues are forced to stage an intervention.

Funny, impatient and politically incorrect, Mindy Lahiri can quote every romantic comedy starring Meg Ryan that exists. She loves the good ones and the bad ones, because the girl always gets the guy. Mindy is determined to be more punctual, spend less money, lose weight and read more books — all in pursuit of becoming a well-rounded perfect woman...who can meet and date the perfect guy...

The Mindy Project has a big share of the pre-season buzz. Mindy Kaling seemingly wore every hat over at Dunder Mifflin and she's going to do the same thing here. It can only be good. Kaling is so talented (as a writer; not even talking about her acting skills), that I'm pretty confident she won't let her character become too annoying. This has hit written all over it.
