What they’re saying

“You didn't plan a season around a pregnancy.”

“Yeah, you just gave birth on camera and named the baby after a grip.”

— Mindy Kaling, Actress (elle.com)

“That's been really lovely to see. Between my books and my TV shows, I feel like a lot of the people who are interested in what I have to say are young women—young women of color and women my age. What's so great about The Office is that it includes those people, but it has a very different fan base in terms of who's coming up to me at the airport. A 15-year-old boy will be like, 'Hey, it's Kelly from The Office!' They just love the show, and it's so pure.”
