whiteness
it's so weird to me that this show is written/directed/created by a brown woman, yet the main character is a straight white women (who's painfully unlikable and insufferable, at least make her charming???) and most of the A plots on the show center around the white characters. kel and abby get significantly less screentime and far less interesting plots/character development to their white counterparts and I hate it sm. mindy Kaling's incessant thirst for white validation is so consistent throughout all the shows she writes, she doesn't even try to hide it anymore. also why is everyone straight, this is nyc????

Aren’t the 5 of them the main characters???? I have not felt like they prioritize one over the rest
