Like it's fun, but it's not.

And I say this myself as a little sister.

It's like great and fun, but just not quite as good as the original.

My younger sister's listening to this.

Is that the way to put it?

Well, the thing is I'm not trying to diminish it, but the thing is, like, in my humble opinion, nothing else at Mindy Kaling has come close to being as perfect and hilarious as the Mindy Project.

But that's not saying her other work isn't incredible.

It's like the Mindy Project just is like lightning in a bottle.

Like you can't recreate it.

You can't move it over to other projects.

It's just like that bar is like in the heavens.

But it doesn't mean her other TV shows aren't great.

It's like that's a special thing all of itself.

So in season one, we were introduced to the Gordon family and the character of Isla Gordon, who is played by Kate Hudson, who's based on a real woman who took over.

Do you not know that?

Like, what?

I actually love this, that I can tell you the same facts, like, multiple times.

Yeah.

And you'll give me a great reaction each time.

Well, yeah, based on a woman who took over a family NBA team and, like, rose up the ranks to be, like, a really high, like, player.
