It just seemed like a lot of millennial humor targeted specifically to a female audience

People get irrationally upset when something isn’t made to cater to them

I'd be very curious to hear what Kaling and her team has to say about it as well as the studio / streaming execs.

There is the weird dynamic in investment banking where you are a high powered trader at say Goldman or Morgan Stanley or wherever right.

You lose the bank $100 million dollars on a bad trade.

You actually "are the guy who lost the $100 million dollar trade" and become a minor celebrity in the bank and the industry and generally are treated as if you are competent and have aplomb versus being derided as a loser trader who will never step foot in a bulge bracket again and will be blackballed from the industry.

The fact that you were a) trusted to make swings with that much money and b) lost it in such a fantastic fashion and c) had the balls to make the trade make it to where this guy is attractive. Nobody loses that spectacularly without also having won big bets in the past, right?

I wonder if people are looking at this massive failing and see it fail so hard that people are like hey, this actually isn't bad and it's good. It's opening doors that wouldn't be open if it were just disliked and a 4/10 of organic bad ratings and the eventual quiet cancellation of a failed project.
