Who run the world? Mindy Kaling.

Kaling, 42, co-created Never Have I Ever based loosely on her upbringing as a first-generation Indian-American, and it has resonated with audiences so well through two seasons that Netflix renewed the coming-of-age comedy:

Never Have I Ever debuted in April 2020 and returned for its sophomore season last month. The series—narrated by tennis great John McEnroe—follows high schooler Devi (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) as she navigates the sudden death of her father, Mohan (Sendhil Ramamurthy), and the strained relationship she has with her mother, Nalini (Poorna Jagannathan), all while confronting a love triangle between Ben Gross (Jaren Lewison) and Paxton Hall-Yoshida (Darren Barnet).

Richa Moorjani, Lee Rodriguez, Ramona Young and Christina Kartchner also star.
