Untitled Mindy Kaling comedy series Kate Hudson

This show is a great pick me up amidst stressful times. It's actually quite funny, witty, great acting and lighthearted. Mindy Kaling keeps killing it with her shows. A little on the predictable side but very coherent and executed well enough. I rarely binge but this show doesn't drag and is easily watchable, good enough cliffhangers per episode. Really hope Netflix doesn't drop this one. Love the resurgence of Brenda Song too.

Need to fill up the minimum required characters, so just going to mention how I love Mindy Kaling's humor here - she isn't afraid to throw out bold jokes that never feels too insensitive.

It really isn't good, but it's not terrible. Imagine how this show would look like if they didn't have huge stars and big production money, it would be trash. I was surprised to see mindy kaling and co was involved with this, warner brothers production. Its very flashy, they have law roach (???), so many cameos, so many great tv shows actors, and yet its a cliche on a cliche. I honestly can't tell if this was intentional, is this like a satire on sitcoms. Its so bad. The brother's dynamic, jackie's whole character and plotline, max greenfield. There is no storyline, no emotion, no chemistry between characters. The only good thing i have to say about this is BRENDA SONG. I love her and she is the only one that feels authentic. I love kate but i cannot watch another netflix production where the main characters can't move their facial muscles. Its kinds like a comedy sitcome but nothing is funny. Its quirky and cute, but thats about it, that the level.

Very funny. I'm not really a sports fan, but this series is great and funny. It's funny in a way similar to Ted Lasso. Where the lead is a descent person, with flaws. It's not a bunch of a-holes being jerks and us laughing at them being jerks, but there is an undercurrent of humanity, something desperately needed in today's world.

Not sure what else to say in order for the IMDB base limit. Guess I'll just say it is worth the time, plus each episode is is less than a half hour so very little risk or time for you to view. If they can maintain the vibe they have it should be a hit for a while. That's it.

When her drug addicted brother ends up in the hospital, isla (kate hudson) steps in as president of the pro basketball team. Each family member has some quirk, illness, or just some personal issue going on in their life. According to the trivia, this ten episode show is loosely based on the actual owner of the los angeles lakers. Various creators, directors, writers. The story gets even more complicated when someone they didn't even know about pops us to claim part of the inheritance. It's surprisingly good. And pay attention... every now and then, there's a reference to films that kate's mom (goldie hawn) has made. Currently showing on netflix. It does wrap up pretty neatly in episode ten. But of course, they also left it open for more seasons.

There is way too much that could have been cut out and made for a more organic storytelling. It kind of fluctuates between sitcom and heartfelt drama with being neither of them.

Acting from Hudson and Song is very campy and self absorbed but it kind of works because of the nature of the program. The others are from ok to completely forgettable.

Writing seems to be all over the place wanting to cram too much into 20min runtime. At times it falls into a bit preachy category but still not too much to be completely annoying. It lost its steam way too quickly.

Frankly, I wouldn't care for another season. I might watch it if there was, but wouldn't count the days.
