Best known for her work on The Mindy Project and her upcoming role in A Wrinkle in Time, Mindy Kaling is a busy woman. Not so busy though, that she can’t help write and star in another upcoming comedy. According to Variety and Relevant Magazine, NBC recently picked up a pilot for her untitled single-camera comedy. According to Variety,
“Mindy Kaling and Charlie Grandy‘s untitled single-camera comedy centers on Vince, a charismatic gym owner with no ambition who lives with his younger brother Michael, a gorgeous idiot. Their simple life of women and working out is put on hold when the teenage son of Vince is dropped off on their doorstep by Priya, one of his old high school flings.”
The new show is likely to premiere in the fall of 2017, and will undoubtedly breathe new life into the conversation surrounding absentee fathers in today’s society. Though little more is known about the project right, Kaling’s previous work speaks for itself.
