"Can’t wait to not watch this": Users poke fun as Hulu greenlights Mindy Kaling’s new comedy ‘Not Suitable for Work’

After creating hit shows like The Mindy Project and Never Have I Ever, Mindy Kaling is set to take on her next comedy project, Not Suitable for Work. The series will follow five work-obsessed twenty-somethings navigating professional success and personal happiness in Manhattan’s glamorous Murray Hill.

Originally titled Murray Hill, the comedy was recently greenlit by Hulu, though further details are yet to be announced. The news has sparked both excitement and skepticism online, as while some are eager to check it out, others feel that it sounds like just another run-of-the-mill sitcom.

Hilarious Internet Reactions

Many users were seen sharing their amusement over the news. Let's take a look at some of their most hilarious reactions.

"Can’t wait to not watch this," a user commented.

Looks like this user can't wait - can't wait to not watch Not Suitable for Work when it drops on Hulu. Maybe the story about a bunch of twenty-somethings struggling in Manhattan hit a little too close to home!

"Murray Hill, the most glamorous neighborhood in the galaxy," joked another.

Many people who live in or frequently visit New York hilariously disagree with Murray Hill being called the "most glamorous" neighborhood. But is that true, or is glamour very subjective?

Sounds familiar... (via @americanreqiuem / X)

Many users are hilariously getting Sex and the City vibes from Mindy Kaling's new show. Who knows, maybe it’s her modern ode to the 1998 classic!

"This show would hit if it was 2009," said a user.

Given how many classic shows from over 20 years ago like Friends, That '70s Show, and Sex and the City that this series is being compared to, perhaps it would have fared better if it had premiered before 2009, when these kinds of shows were instant hits, as this user humorously points out.

"Wonder how much their parents are paying for their rent," another pointed out.

Hmm, if Not Suitable for Work is about a group of twenty-somethings striving for success in one of Manhattan’s most glamorous neighborhoods, then their parents must surely be footing their exorbitant rent, right?

No, thanks! (via @megaminimoni_ / X)

Looks like we have a user who isn’t a fan of Mindy Kaling or her work, as they bluntly suggest she put the pen down and stop writing more shows.

Mindy Kaling's upcoming project has definitely piqued the internet's interest, and only time will tell if their hunch about the show being just another '90s or 2000s-style sitcom proves true.
