I so miss The Mindy Project. It was brilliant
Girl me too. That show was AMAZING
Yes!! One of my favorite comfort shows
Me too!!!
ME TOO! I Rewatch it all the time.🤣💕
Yes!!🙌🏼 it’s one of my all time favorite shows ever made!! Mindy Kaling is a comedy genius! I still like to rewatch it, especially when I’ve had a bad day! Always makes me feel better ❤️🩹
"Paxton was soaking wet, and he used the adverb 'well' instead of the adjective 'good.'"
Thank you! _Seriously,_ now!
THE BESTTTTTTT
McEnroe was the surprised hit of the series! Loved him in both seasons. He's hilarious and am sure this has brought him a new generation of fans! Mindy, that was a genius move!
Really was! His commentary is hilarious! I can't stop laughing!
Did you cry at the end of season 1? That was so perfect for Mohan. He would have loved it.
I had no idea so many South Asian parents were McEnroe fans till I watche the show. Thought it was just my parents
McEnroe as the narrator of a nerdy Indian girl is a stroke of genius!!!
its the best part of the show for me. Hearing him say "this is Ganesh Puja Baby!" just made it for me
Sad how Hollywood knows know one will listen to a woman... so let’s put her thoughts in a man’s voice! BOOM!!!
@@alisonmorgan7503 I don't think it's like that. like Mindy put Gigi Hadid as the narrator for Paxton's story.
Thanks. That's why i ordered it. Even though i have no idea who the guy is supposed to be.
@@alisonmorgan7503 oh FFS, as a south asian woman myself, that's not how it is in this case at all. Quit looking for shit that isn't there.
I saw this and decided to watch 'Never have I ever' ONLY because of Mindy. I'm old and hate teen comedies ... but OH! SO VERY well written. I've now binged season 1 in one night. It's like seeing Mindy's brain as a teenager. The kids are fantastic actors. A must see for comedy fans. Thank you Mindy! Brilliant.
Thanks! I didnt rrally want to watch it... then.... warmed up cause its Mindy..... and your review just did it for me :)
Season 2 is wonderful as well! I'm 50 years old and watch it with my 14 year old son and we both LOVE IT.
It’s 100% brilliant!! So worth watching
Just binged BOTH seasons in one day. SO GOOD.
I like that a lot because I love the show and her. More people need to watch it, it's so good and funny.
My favorite line from the show was “Devi watched in horror as the one cool teacher, who used to play favorites with Devi for obvious cultural reasons, was won over by Aneesa’s inviting personality”
Great line
Haha yeahh that's a great one! So well-written!
bruh what
I think I would have liked NHIE regardless, but having McEnroe as the hotheaded inner voice of Devi really cinched this show as one of my favourites. His commentary is AMAZING! Comedic gold
"How dare you." Classic.
Kelly Kapoor.
Ex-Squeeze Me??
@@meshzy13 even mindy in the mindy project, honestly
@@krittikapaul355 he meant the dialogue/line was classic.
@@swavnasahoo711 ....i know, and that's not what i was referring to
They handled the knock-and-pop situation beautifully and hilariously, well done👏
Whenever Mindy is on they have these brilliant unscripted moments: love these two sharp comedic talents playing up against each other.
So cute .. as if Stephen ever had evil intent in his life 😂😂😂 refreshing to see adults act like adults with good natured humor ! Well handled by both parties I’d say !
Right!!! 🥰
I feel like Stephen bringing up an event that could have been easily swept under the rug for decades and owning it is a breath of fresh air and an example of healthy masculinity. Sure, he's no Aragorn son of Arathorn, but who is really?
Mindy only makes good things. Every piece of work with her time and attention behind it is Pure Gold. NHIE season 2 is such a fun and ridiculous ride!
Fact. She makes content most American writers only dream and try to make. A truly relatable and hilarious American experience.
yeah right ,Velma too??
Appreciate the “knock and pop” - the ownership, the humor….etc.
I can tell from the clip what kinds of experiences Mindy wish she had when she was in high school
It's every heterosexual female nerd's dream! 😄 It also reminds me of the scene in Romeo + Juliet were a young Leonardo Di Caprio goes to Juliet's room in the middle of a rainstorm and they have a steamy night together just before he gets exiled. Mindy is my type of person 😂
Yes and no. I cannot remember which episode that clip is from, but she doesn't write every episode. I believe that aside from being the co-creator and an executive producer (lead), she has three writing credits for the series thus far.
for an Indian child, this can only be our dreams and nothing more in that age.
This story is based on her real life
I love Mindy Kaling. It's so refreshing to see a woman who is of South Asian descent on TV, writing TV that reflects that experience, being a boss in. She is super talented and hilarious and smart!
This comment aged like spoiled Milk.
@@PaulAllen786 indeed💀
Well, that was a foreshadowing 🤣🤣🤣
Was about to comment exactly that.
Love her!!! Brilliantly funny with great timing “I wish I’d worn a sexier bra because you work so hard…” I yelled laughing!!!
No kidding. This is exactly the antidote to everything going on these days. ".. you know, he works hard.. and who's fault is it anyway?" "Mine. It's entirely my fault." Personal responsibility + mutual respect + compassion.
Mindy Kaling may say she doesn't understand teenagers, but NHIE is well-crafted enough on the varied generational AAPI experiences (esp s2) that she gets a pass. (The guy in the clip is half Japanese and they wrote it into the character after he was cast.) Curious about her other show now.
FACTSSSS
its SOO good you need to watch!!
S1>>>>>>>> WHAT U EVEN SAYING????
There's always some mishap when Mindy visits. Didn't his phone go off the last time she did an in-person interview with Stephen?
It was his apple watch. She decimated him for it.
Lol yes! I love their back n forth its so enjoyable!
Yes, the apple watch incident and ALSO during virtual Colbert show. There was an awkward moment where she was daring him to say whether she looked fat or pregnant in a photo… I can't remember exactly but the feeling was oh they have def veered from the talking points now!
OMG YES! What a memory. Whenever she's on SOMETHING crazy happens it's the best
Her "how dare you" kills me every time lol
@@paprpullr I invited Darryl to the meet
@@paprpullr if i had built a website with this many problems, i’d kill myself.
I adore Mindy, she's such a hardworking and smart writer, and I love the interviews she does with Colbert, their chemistry is amazing.
Season 2 is even better than season 1. Great stories!! So many times you can't tell where the story is going to go or how it's going to end. I really enjoyed watching this nerdy girl and her nerdy friends navigate their way through high school making mistakes, and not always coming out smelling like a roses. I love the main character's sassy personality 🙂💞
Mindy is gorgeous and talented.
Yes. Very gorgus butiful actress
She never was either of those things.
Yeah...she is funny! She made the The Office funny too! Love her work!
I haven't really laughed in a few days due to some family drama and this interview sent me rolling. I love Mindy!
I hope things get better and everyone’s okay!
@@cordeliaellsworth4704 Thank you, that's very sweet 🤞
Colbert was off his game suggesting GenX, later you understand why he was distracted. Kaling lets him off the hook in the most gracious way. He is so touched, that he blushes. Very cute interaction!
She is on the cusp - a fair guess 😎
@@TitoTimTravels fair? maybe, charming? definitely not. And Colbert is normally as charming and polite as he can be.
@@TitoTimTravels No she's not. She was born in 1979, and the oldest millennial are born in 1982.
@@SRosenberg203 Nope. I've seen 1980 as the start of the Millennials. These start/end dates are arbitrarily assigned. Why bother getting worked up. As a fellow Xennial, I completely agree with Mindy.
I love Mindy, she's so funny & creative & always fun to hear from but still, my favorite part of this clip is a man openly, publically taking responsibility & apologizing for a mistake.
And furthermore, when she says maybe I'm to blame for not locking the door, he says a firm NO IT WAS ENTIRELY MY FAULT. Well done!!!
if Mindy Kaling made a religion I would certainly consider converting. I am okay with anything she does.
She has a book called Kind of Hindu. Which I think is a great religion. Infact I think, "Kind of" any religion is a great religion. It's only when you go full gusto that people end up dying. And ya, I know it's a joke.
She is so nice and so kind! That I find her beautiful just because of the way she handles and carries herself! Such a talented woman!!! I am a MINDY KALING Fan!!! Absolutely : )
And the actress that plays Devi is from Mississauga, Ontario!
No one knows where that is playa
@@VHale-yz7hc Part of Toronto :)
A couple of years I saw Stephen Colbert interview Mindy Kaling in person during a film festival in NJ and they're as fun and authentic as you see them here
Yeah, this explains a lot honestly lmaoo
I just love Mindy, who freaking cares what generation she is
Yeah, i don't get that whole stereotype thinking. Oh you're from that drawer so you must be this and that. I hope we're all too individual for this really.
@@xxJOKeR75xx it does get to be a tad much
@@xxJOKeR75xx sadly, a large part of the world is operating this way. Witness a prime minister dismissing someone with a "boomer" comment
Pretty funny that she's offended by being called a "Gen Xer" when she's only a year or two out 😆
Her woke whining put me off her fast. Just do your act and maybe learn to actually be funny.
The Indian father of Devi, the female protagonist, would have grown up watching Vijay Amritraj, a great Indian tennis player who competed professionally in the same era as John McEnroe.
Not necessarily. I was a kid/teenager when Borg and McEnroe were at the top and that's what was on the TV when my dad watched tennis.
Mindy Kaling is utterly devoid of talent.
The mindy project remains one of the best funniest shows of all time and I fucking love Never Have I Ever with all my heart
Mindy Kaling if you're reading this, I'm 37 years old and Never Have I Ever...is hands down my favorite show on Netflix. Plus the soundtrack for both seasons is on fleek!
Sincerely, A Millennial
same homie. lol :)
@@padmavathisarvepalli4947 YASSSSSS!!!
I thought this show was targeted to indian audience but seems like western people enjoy it too.
"Never have I walked in on female guests when they were not fully dressed" - Stephen takes a shot
How did no one type this yet??
*GASP*
STEPHEN YOU BARELY EVEN KNOCKED SMH
🤣🤣🤣
foreshadowing is a literary device.
Just Wow n moreover they talked about it on The Show. Such beautiful minds.
Raising teenagers is like trying to nail Jello to a tree .
By the time they are teenagers, they are already "raised."
Freeze it
@@richardjones2455 Yes and no, they should know what's right and wrong by then, but they still need reinforcement and instruction on the nuances of their actions. Teenagers get excited and do things that they wouldn't have, had they stopped and taken the time to think about it.
Freeze the Jello shots, and then get the hammer
Lol it can be for sure. Our brains are not fully formed until our mid 20's sooo, there ya go.
"How dare you" ... call back to an iconic line 🤣
HAHAHAHAHAH I ALMOST SPIT MY COFFEE "he works hard"
To even bring that sensitive topic and apologizing for popping in... thts so brave and nice of Stephen .. such a gentleman
Xennial here myself!! 🙋🏼♀️ Actually wrote a grad paper on the complexities of being born borderline between 2 distinct generations. Thanks for giving it a name Mindy 👏
You wrote a paper on this and you didn’t know the term “Xennial”?
@@sophiakrishnan2053 it was an introduction paper for my professor in a social psychology course based on the patterns, behaviors & characteristics of me as shaped by society written 5 years ago. Given that the term wasn't 1st used until late 2014, & even still wasn't included in the Oxford dictionary until 2020, no, I admittedly was unaware of an obscure new term barely around 2 years at the time of writing a paper which contextually touched on my generational standing in accordance with a plethora of other variables.
But please, go on judging strangers' jocular remarks in a condescending way from an anonymous platform if it brings you joy. Gotta find it where we can & some, it seems, can't find it in their real lives so they're forced to find it artificially elsewhere. Good day!
@@MK-285 OMFG IT WAS NEVER THAT SERIOUS LMFAOOOO 🤣🤣🤣🤧🤡💀
@@MK-285 👏👏👏
@@MK-285 I think the other person’s comment was about the fact that you said “thanks for giving it a name” to Mindy. True you may not have known the term when you first wrote your paper, but surely you heard it before this interview, right? Your original comment almost reads like you wrote that paper, but never heard of the term until Mindy coined it and shared it with Stephen and the world on this show. 🙄
Her laugh is contagious. 😂
Oh really 😁
"How dare you." The nostalgia.
Exactly, I'm also the same generation between x and millennials.
Glass animals is now officially been on the late show
she could be a boomer and I would still want her to be my best friend.
LMAO the ultimate compliment 🤣
My mother is a real boomer, born towards the end of World War 2. I'm close to Mindy's generation.
Her comedy show on Hulu shows her talent and writing skills ☺️
'you know he works hard' lmao got me
Gotta love Colbert . Always a gentleman!
There is always something with these two 😂
Also a Xennial: Millennial debt with Gen X angst.
IMHO, Velma was always 'snarky', but, in the new HBO TV series, she's mean and vindictive. Also - if they want to change the IP for the better - - why not have real ghosts [*not* bad guys in rubber masks] - and make some ghosts *good* - - why assume that *all* sprits are evil?
I think i actually noticed Colbert blush.
she is the generation that was too young for nirvana and too old for backstreet boys! xD
Exactly! 1981 here
LOTR nerd SC should have corrected her: "You shall not pass..!" ( Gandalf)
He was holding it in trying not to reference it loool
Genxennial is just a word for “how dare you imply I’m approaching middle age.”
Exactly. Like anything remarkable happened during that episode during their formative years that they need their own "micro-generation"???
@@leavingitblank9363 The transition from analogue to digital and the massive surge in internet use. We grew up comfortable with both worlds. We remember a time when the internet was less user friendly and people were still wary of it, but we aren't technophobic the was some gen-Xers are. Of course all these cohort things are massive generalisations. Some Gen Xer are more like Xennials or Millenials. Depends on the socio-economic class you grew up in, how conservative progressive your family was, where you live etc.
@@KenrickLeiba Agreed - I'd argue that Mindy's mentality/personality fits the older end of millennial better than Gen X - it's just a matter of what you mean when you talk about generations. I'm an old millennial and didn't see social media until after college, so my life/development is/was different from the younger end of the generation. If we're going to go by cultural stuff, generations are going to have to get smaller and smaller to account for the acceleration of tech - but they haven't yet (not that there's an official bureau of generationalizing hah).
That said... I still think Mindy just didn't want to be called old ;)
Mindy is one of my favorite actresses!!!
She's so talented, funny, clever, gorgeous, smart and makes the movies and shows I want to see!!!❤❤❤❤
"How dare you." Yeah, Stephen, answer. Ryan couldn't either.
thought the same😂
Not understanding teenagers while writing a show on them while doing 'Velma' is peak Hollywood.
Mindy Kaling, 'wish i had worn a sexier bra,' Brilliant.
It’s like when Pam walked in on Michael changing
i can't get enough of mindy kaling!!!!!!
My much older brother messaged me just to say I'd been reclassified '82 as a geriatric millennial because now he could say I'm geriatric .
@@k.j.305 no need to apologize to people older than you, you’ll be geriatric soon enough 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Born in 83 and an xennial too! Love "Never have I ever"!
She’s brilliant and hilarious. Great combination.❤️
Lmao I love Mindy so much, ever since the Mindy show . And never have I ever is just as great if not better cause Devi is brilliant lead
She just makes me happy with her effervescent beautiful spirit...that's it 👑 👑 👑 👑
I honestly don't understand how people can "Not understand" teenagers. Do you not have memories to draw upon? Were you never a teenager?
I teach 7th graders, and I'd wager that I could describe the exact feelings that any of my students are feeling, about 90% of the time. I remember what it was like to be them, and all I have to do is imagine myself in their position for about 2 seconds. Is this really such a rare ability? In my experience, most teachers don't seem to remember what it was like to be a child, and it's something I honestly find quite shocking, because those memories are extremely distinct in my mind.
Thats honestly an amazing and rare quality you have that I wished I had. I remember my teenage years but I'm guessing that maybe for a lot of others like me who didn't enjoy their teenage years and wanted nothing more than to grow up and out of a very vulnerable and humiliating phase, its not easy to put ourselves back easily. You're around teenagers a lot and also at the most important social structure in their lives, school, which is why you can understand easily. But the parents as home who lead completely different lives and don't often get a window into the lives of their kids, thats why they don't understand. I'm scared of getting to that point, where others have more knowledge of my kids life than me, I hope I'm a better parent than that. Other teachers though, I can't even offer an excuse for them besides they don't wanna be there.
@@netforce13 I mean I get that. I didn't particularly enjoy my teenage years either, but that's part of why I remember the feelings of being that age so distinctly.
The fact that you're even considering these questions means you're already a good parent. Bad parents are the ones who never reflect on their own behavior, and never think about how their behavior impacts their children. The fact that you're concerned over this makes you, by definition, a good parent. Nobody is perfect, but I'm sure you're doing your best, and that's all we really can do.
That is just the CUTEST interview I've ever seen with Mindy and Steven! 😂🤣🥰 Totally laughed my ass off!! Totally made my day!! 💯💕
My mum is a high school teacher for over 20 years and mother to me (22) and my two teenage brothers and she’s no closer to understanding teens at all 😂😂😂
She looks gorgeous!
The iconic ''How dare you '' .. :)
Gen X here, and if I wasn’t Gen X I’d be offended by all the hate. 🤣
Shut up boomer
I was just thinking the same thing, Roger. Usually we're ignored so... at least with the hate we know we weren't forgotten?
@@lynnhettrick7588 They can ignore me or hate me, I do not care. This Gen-Xer retired at 48 and moved to Asia! 😎
@@Reticulosis Boomers are people born from 1946 to 1964. Gen X are people born from 1965-1980.
People in show business are fine with seeing others in states of undress. Having done lots of theatre, I've dressed in proximity to all sorts of people. It's a given.
“He works hard”
Love the show really hoping for a season 3.
Love everything Mindy does. Knew she was awesome since Kelly.
Mindy you rock…….❤️
Spoiler warning needed, Stephen. I've been watching Never Have I Ever and I'm not that far in.
Xennial - born between 1979 and 1983, in fact
I have no idea who this woman is, but she is absolutely charming and adorable.
How is that possible? She is the best
she's an amazing writer and actress! Go see the office ASAP
Ever seen “The Office”, if not watch it now, you won’t be sorry lol.
Can I just say that dress looks lovely on Mindy
He works hard! That's why he's behind the desk.
Knock-knock
Who’s there?
Colbert, the conqueror of beauty
I wasn't expecting that ending! 😆😆😆
Ughh yuck she mentioned meghan
She's adorable and smart and beautiful
legend, thats gold
I love Mindy Kaling ⭐️. Also enjoying her voice acting on Monsters At Work.
I did not know this, thank you. I will pay more attention.
Hilarious way to make fun of men's invasive obsession of women in two ways: the inner voice monologue in the TV show and the dressing room incident. Thanks for adding humor to a very threatening, very real topic.
If it isn't Stephens watch interrupting the intervju, it's Stephen walking in on her getting changed. Something always happen...
so that's how they publicly laugh away the creepiness
i'm so glad i didn't watch this interview before i watched season 2, it would've ruined that rain makeout scene for me.
And shes bad at it....Velma is a disaster.
I always wonder that about the writers of shows for teenagers.
The Mindy Project was my life during High school. I love her so much
Such a great show! Culture is truly represented
Things I love
1) Mindy Kaling
2) Never have I ever…
3) Stephen Colbert
💕💕💕
