The kid is not loveable
30 March 2020
When I saw Anders, with a hard An from Workaholics was in a new show with Mindy of the Mindy Project I thought I had hit the jackpot but this show is a little lost and the child actor portraying a young homosexual Indian boy (played by Josie Totah) is unloveable and comes across as far too obnoxious and too much of a know-it-all.

Anders and Mindy are good in this and the supporting cast isn't bad either (I think I love Dana - played by Ginger Gonzaga) but the kid is irritable, comes across as very obnoxious and arrogant and simply isn't loveable. I think with a more loveable, less know-it-all homosexual child this could have been a good show and allowed for a lot more humour derived from that part. I understand what they were trying to do and the subject material does give them a lot of interesting story lines that other shows wouldn't be able to do and I would love to know what others thought but I just didn't like the child at any stage even after finishing the entire first (and likely only) series.
