“He’s an arts and culture writer and a bit of a snob — he kind of looks down on Mindy’s taste,” explains exec producer Jack Burditt of Feldman’s character. “There’s an attraction there, but also a divide between them. She’ll say things, and she has no idea what he’s talking about. [We'll see] how these two people who are very different can get along. ”
For those keeping score at home, Feldman’s casting brings to three the number of potential boyfriends being introduced for Kaling’s Dr. Lahiri in Season 2. He joins fellow suitors Timothy Olyphant (Justified) and Glenn Howerton (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia).
