"When the Fox show sets up conventional expectations, it's usually to defy them," says Matthew Gilbert. "Just when you think it's is a nice network sitcom about an intelligent, affable single woman looking for love and forming a workplace family in the city, an update of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, it reminds you it isn't. Rather than pulling a Ross-and-Rachel, for example, and stringing out the Mindy-Danny affair across many seasons and many breakup-makeups like most sitcoms, The Mindy Project got the couple together relatively quickly. And now, also quickly, before the end of season three, Mindy is pregnant."
