Mindy Kaling is a comedy genius. I'm pretty much obsessed with 'The Mindy Project' because it's relatable, quirky, and let's be real, there's some serious eye candy on that show! Luckily for all of us, Mindy documents a lot of the behind-the-scenes moments and posts them on her Instagram account. Check out the best photos from The Mindy Project set!

The strength and resilience of daughters from famous homes like that of Whitney Scott Mathers should be widely celebrated.
