Mindy Kaling's latest comedy series, 'Not Suitable for Work', has premiered on Hulu. The show follows five ambitious 20-somethings navigating life and careers in New York City. The first three episodes are available now, with new episodes releasing weekly.

Facts First

  • Mindy Kaling's new series 'Not Suitable for Work' is now streaming on Hulu.
  • The show follows five ambitious 20-somethings living and working in New York City.
  • The series was originally titled 'Murray Hill' after its Manhattan setting, before a title change advised by Hulu executives.
  • The first three episodes are available now, with the remaining six episodes airing weekly on Tuesdays.
  • The show features an ensemble cast including Ella Hunt, Avantika, Will Angus, Jack Martin, and Nicholas Duvernay.

What Happened

Mindy Kaling's new Hulu series, 'Not Suitable for Work', premiered with its first three episodes available for streaming. The show was originally titled 'Murray Hill' after the Manhattan neighborhood where it is set, but Hulu executive Craig Erwich and B.J. Novak advised Kaling to change the title. The series follows five ambitious singles living across two apartments in New York City. In the premiere episodes, characters AJ and Josh reveal a past one-night stand, and Davis experiences a medical emergency after eating seafood despite a shellfish allergy. The series features cameos from Gigi Hadid and Zarna Garg in the first three episodes.

Why this Matters to You

If you enjoy character-driven comedies about young professionals, this series may offer a new weekly watch. The show is described as the third installment in a series loosely based on Kaling's life, following 'Never Have I Ever' and 'The Sex Lives of College Girls', so fans of those shows could find similar appeal. With new episodes releasing weekly, it provides a structured viewing schedule for those who prefer not to binge-watch.

What's Next

The remaining six episodes of the nine-episode series will air weekly on Tuesdays on Hulu. The show's reception could influence whether Hulu orders additional seasons, potentially leading to more content from Kaling and showrunner Charlie Grandy, who have previously collaborated on 'The Office', 'The Mindy Project', and 'The Sex Lives of College Girls'.
