Mindy Kaling’s Netflix series ‘Never Have I Ever’ wins fourth and final season

After four seasons, “Never Have I Ever” fans will have to say goodbye to “ONU” — Devi Vishwakumar, Fabiola Torres and Eleanor Wong — aka “The Uncool Nerds.” (Thanks, Ben Gross.) Season 3 will air this summer, while the coming-of-age comedy’s final season will begin production in 2023, according to Deadline.

Since “Never Have I Ever” premiered in April 2020, audiences have fallen in love with Mindy Kaling’s series, which was briefly inspired by the “Office” alum’s upbringing.

The show stars Tamil Canadian Maitreyi Ramakrishnan as Devi Vishwakumar, a first-generation American Indian teenager who returns to high school after the traumatic death of her father.

Grief-stricken, young Devi loses the ability to walk for three months after her father’s death. As she heads into her sophomore year, she’s determined to rebrand, ditch the title of “The Paralyzed Indian Girl Whose Dad Dropped Dead at a School Function” and climb the social ladder.

However, the dream is full of challenges, wrong: an arc of enemies for lovers turned love triangle, struggling to balance loyalty versus popularity and a potential move to India. Let’s not forget Devi’s new Indian classmate, Aneesa (Megan Suri), who proves that “Crazy Devi” could be just plain badass.

Kaling shared the news in an Instagram post, which she and the show’s co-creator Lang Fisher signed: “We can’t wait to reveal all the love and hilarious adventures we have in store for you. Thanks to all our fans for your support – especially you #Bevi and #Daxton stan. We love you!”

Darren Barnet, who plays resident Himbo Paxton Hall-Yoshida, shared the news in an Instagram story with the caption, “One more time baby!”

Poorna Jagannathan, who plays Devi’s mother Nalini, reposted the message with the caption “Just happened. Honored to bring this story back once again. We belong.”

Hours after the announcement, “Never Have I Ever” star Ramakrishnan posted a throwback video to the moment she got the news of being cast in the lead role, followed by her own personal message: “Dear NHIE fans, Thank you all for all. … This show is so close to my heart. It’s my privilege to help create this story, so I promise I’ll give it my all and make you all proud.”

Bela Bajaria, head of global television at Netflix, wrote: “We are thrilled to have two more seasons of Never Have I Ever. It’s everything we want in a Netflix comedy series: authentic, specific, funny and soulful. I love that a story that I relate to so deeply — about a young Indian-American girl — touches on so many universal truths that resonate with almost everyone.”

Heralded as a groundbreaking moment for South Asian representation on television, “Never Have I Ever” centers a brown girl as the love interest while defying and challenging tropes about young South Asian American women. It easily traverses themes such as grief, sexuality, friendship and identity.

For now, we await the fate of Devi’s virginity, relationships, and college aspirations, but fans will greatly miss the award-winning series when it ends.
