## Resource

In this episode of The Rank Podcast, John continues his Sitcom Rankings series with a look at the 2012 sitcom The Mindy Project, breaking down Season 3, Episode 18: “Fertility Bites.” Mindy Lahiri sets out to launch her own fertility clinic but quickly struggles to attract patients and build credibility. Desperate to boost business, she stretches the truth about her own pregnancy, creating a misleading story to draw in clients. However, her lie spirals out of control and is eventually exposed, putting both her professional reputation and relationship with Danny at risk.
