8 Quirky Female TV Characters We Love

6. Mindy Lahiri - The Mindy Project

Mindy The Mindy Project Dr Mindy Lahiri is an OBGYN (that's a gynaecologist to us British folk) who gets entangled in many sticky situations. Mindy is smart and strange, pretty yet peculiar and thinks nothing of having a chocolate fountain in her office arguing "This is amazing. People love this." She is totally frank and feisty, calling herself by her warrior name of Beyoncé Pad Thai. And Mindy is constantly sexting and chasing after the wrong men, yet tells the truth about real dating where she celebrates the fact that going for a meal with someone means having to act natural in the most unnatural situations. Although she does try to be a better person, most days anyway, but her lack of empathy and her inability to stay quiet do land her in hot water, especially when it comes to babysitting her friends kids, "This house, not equipped for kids alright? I eat cereal out of wine glasses." She also finds it difficult to say 'no' to people and once came back from a flea market with a samurai sword. But Mindy is confident and cookie and admits that love is a battle field.
