Mindy Kaling’s NBC Project Is Headed to Fox
This is why actress/blogger/best-selling author Mindy Kaling is not getting her own Office spin-off: Vulture hears Fox is just about ready to order a pilot for a half-hour comedy written by and starring Kaling as an OB/GYN. The project was originally developed at NBC via Kaling’s overall deal with Universal Television, the Peacock’s studio arm. But NBC network brass decided to pass on the concept, putting the show on the open market. Fox, which has had success this season with the female-focused New Girl, pounced on the chance to develop the show. Universal will still produce. Zooey and Mindy, hanging together on Tuesday nights? To quote the poets Ingram and McDonald: “Ya mo be there.”
I’m going through all these people, and I’m like, “not funny enough, my friend—this isn’t funny. I’m not gonna give them a shout out. Forget it.” Only follow me. Just follow me; I’m the funniest person on Twitter. (x)

Interview with Mindy Kaling on Jezebel.com
- GameOfHousewives: Could Kelly [from the office] be the fourth Kardashian sister?
- Mindy Kaling: Kelly would die to be a Kardashian and probably thinks of herself as such. She's the fourth sister the way Kristen Wiig is the weird deformed sister in the SNL Lawrence Welk sketch.
Favorites of 2011: Mindy Kaling
“Teenage girls, please don’t worry about being super popular in high school, or being the best actress in high school, or the best athlete. Not only do people not care about any of that the second you graduate, but when you get older, if you reference your successes in high school too much, it actually makes you look kind of pitiful, like some babbling old Tennessee Williams character with nothing else going on in her current life. What I’ve noticed is that almost no one who was a big star in high school is also big star later in life. For us overlooked kids, it’s so wonderfully fair.”
