Description

👊😂 John’s back at the Shulman & Associates office for The Mindy Project, Season 3, Episode 2 — “Annette Castellano Is My Nemesis.” In this episode, Mindy (Mindy Kaling) finally meets Danny’s formidable mother, Annette (Rhea Perlman), and her first impression couldn’t be worse — Annette thinks Mindy is Danny’s cleaning lady.

John digs into the comedic and emotional layers of the episode: why Mindy’s over-the-top plan is both funny and revealing, how Annette’s character challenges Danny (and Mindy) in a way few others do, and whether Mindy’s boldness here is a strength or a liability. He also ranks where this episode lands in his Sitcom Rankings — is it a standout for character development, or just classic awkwardness dressed in pastel? Tune in to hear John’s takes, standout lines, and final placement.
