Sorry, Lindy, I feel like you are backing the wrong horse in this race.

Her writer's room is overwhelmingly White and male. Her first season it was ALL White and male except for her (with was noted in a New York Magazine profile on her and the show). A White woman writer was added for the second season and perhaps another White woman has been added since then. It is my understanding…

Thank you SO MUCH for your thoughtful, cogent responses to this. I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agrre with everything you are saying.

Black people are people. Their palates can be expanded to drinking wine that isn't swill. Start with a fruity Pinto Grigio with a high sugar content and work from there.

Gabby Union is just...just...sexy as all get out. I'll leave it at that as I reach for my fan.

There are very few female showrunners, generally, and VERY few in my age bracket (I am 31 years old) and it's those shows I watch or am interested in culturally. I'm just not watching Chuck Lorre shows like Two and 1/2 Men or Mike & Molly or crime procedurals or that stuff. It's just not my interest. It's really only…

Oh. To me it's certainly not right but understandable in the moment if a person or animal had just harmed my child. I go into attack mode if I think anyone in a 100 mile radius has done harm or is thinking of doing harm to my daughter.

Well, it was a lawsuit that brought by Hindus in the Midwest that brought to light that Mickey D's was frying their fries in beef fat and not disclosing that fact, and instead claiming that their fries were fried only in veggie oils and thus were ok to eat by vegetarians and religious-minded folks for whom certain…

In addition to being patronizing towards gender they are being super-patronizing towards Black folks. Wine-makers have started pushing super-gross Moscatos to Black folk because we are apparently too unsophisticated to drink anything but Peach-flavored sugar water. That stuff is like Kool-Aide for adults. So…

The cases that actually wind their way up the court system (rather than getting tossed out right away) allege that fast food companies pump their food with additives (that make them addictive and even worse for our bodies than the crappy food by itself) and that they don't disclose these additives in a way that the…

This is sad :-(.

Actually, fast food companies are sued pretty regularly for the "alleged" repurcussions that come with ingesting their food.

I'm not 100% sure but I think the cat was kicked to make it stop scratching/lunging at the baby.

Your opinion. Which is different than mine. That's fine, people are different.

Ummm, why did you put Brooklyn in all caps? You are aware that Brooklyn, if it were a stand-alone city, would be one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the world, right? Not just the US but in the ENTIRE WORLD. Rather odd that a show-runner in 2012 (or whenever the show came out) would choose to have an all…

Absolutely not true re: magazine articles and headlines. I personally have negotiated with Conde Nast publications regarding headlines and quotes for my clients.

If you Google her name and "voice of a generation" you'll see the Entertainment Weekly, Glamour magazine cover and Wall Street Journal article bestowing her with that title. Her team allowed those headlines to move forward to print (I work in entertainment and yes, generally the talent's team get mock-ups of the cover…

When asked about that line during the Season 1 press tour she punts by saying "my show reveals what it's like to be young." That's not much better. It reveals what it's like to be young, White, upper middle class, college educated and in a major city with parents from whom you can get some help with rent . That's a…

And when she was asked about that line in countless interviews she states that "my show reveals what it's like to be young." But it only reveals what it's like to be young when you are White and upper middle class. She only now owns up to the fact that the show highlights her specific experience which is actually…

I believe Mindy is myopic about race and gender. I'm totally ok with the fact that you or she may find that insulting. It's certainly not a compliment.
