Best Netflix shows: Never Have I Ever
Seasons: 2
Created by Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher
Starring Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Poorna Jagannathan, Richa Moorjani, Jaren Lewison, Darren Barnet, and John McEnroe
Never Have I Ever premiered on Netflix in the spring of 2020. There is currently one season on the streaming service.
The series is loosely based on Mindy Kaling’s experience as a teenager. Never Have I Ever tells the story of Devi (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan), a teenager who is trying to move on from the death of her father and also climb the social hierarchy at her Southern California high school. Devi’s story is narrated by Tennis pro John McEnroe.
I was really impressed with this show. It’s clearly one of the best Netflix teen shows to date. Most of Netflix’s teen shows are super heavy on the drama. Never Have I Ever leans on comedy (and a fair share of drama) to move the story forward, and it’s very refreshing. I can’t wait to see what happens in the new season and where this show goes.
Never Have I Ever is already renewed for season 3 on Netflix!
