Get ready for a delightful dose of Mindy Kaling humor as the acclaimed writer, actor, and producer gears up for her latest venture on Hulu. The streaming giant has triumphantly secured Kaling’s next comedy series, the ensemble show titled “Murray Hill,” promising a fresh take on the lives of young professionals in Manhattan.
In a competitive bidding war, Hulu emerged victorious, offering a script-to-series commitment for “Murray Hill.” The show, set in the vibrant Manhattan neighborhood it’s named after, will center around the journeys of five ambitious 20-somethings, navigating the intricate balance between professional aspirations and personal fulfillment.
Produced by Warner Bros. TV, with whom Kaling holds an overall deal, “Murray Hill” showcases Kaling’s exceptional talent as both a writer and executive producer. Steering the ship from the writing desk, Kaling infuses her signature wit and charm into the script, promising audiences a delightful exploration of modern-day life in the bustling metropolis.
Joining Kaling in the executive producer lineup is Howard Klein of 3 Arts Entertainment, ensuring a powerhouse team behind the scenes. Jessica Kumai Scott from Kaling International takes on the role of co-executive producer, adding depth and expertise to the production.
For Kaling, “Murray Hill” marks a delightful reunion with Hulu, the platform that famously rescued her beloved comedy series, “The Mindy Project,” after Fox canceled it in 2015. The show found a new home on Hulu, delighting audiences with three additional seasons and 50 episodes before gracefully concluding in 2017.
Kaling’s collaboration with Hulu doesn’t end there. She previously co-created and executive produced a limited series adaptation of “Four Weddings and a Funeral,” which captivated audiences with its charm and wit in 2019.
With “Murray Hill,” Kaling once again demonstrates her ability to craft compelling narratives that resonate with audiences, blending humor, heart, and relatable experiences. As fans eagerly await the arrival of this new comedic gem, one thing is certain: Mindy Kaling’s return to Hulu is bound to be a delightful affair, promising laughter, insight, and plenty of memorable moments in the heart of Manhattan’s Murray Hill.
