"The Mindy Project" is returning for a fifth season!

Hulu announced that it was renewing the comedy for season 5, which will be the second to play exclusively on the streaming service. Last year, the series, which was created by Mindy Kaling, was cancelled by Fox, and Hulu swooped in to save it. Now, viewers will get to see further adventures and wacky antics from Kaling's OB/GYN character and her doctor and nurse co-workers.


Season 4, which is currently airing on Hulu, has focused on Mindy navigating motherhood while being newly single, after breaking up with baby daddy Danny (Chris Messina).

Hulu has become more aggressive about adding original content in the past year. The streaming service has debuted high-profile shows like "The Path" and "11.23.63," and is making a foray into documentary films with Ron Howard's "The Beatles: Eight Days a Week."
