[ MELINDA "MINDY" MOY ]
28-30 years old, Chinese American, Non-binary, sarcastic, working class, thick Boston accent, Mindy is a quirky, matter-of-fact, lapsed Catholic who identifies as non-binary to everybody but their parents. Mindy's in AA and is the manager at Stop and Shop after finally having had enough working at their parent’s restaurant. Strong comedic chops…SERIES REGULAR 7/10ths (29)
Storyline: After a spectacularly embarrassing public breakdown goes viral, 28-year-old irreverent alcoholic Samantha Fink has no other choice but to move back home with her mother in the suburbs of Boston, the worst place in the world to get sober. As Samantha gets further away from her last drink, she slowly realizes that her privilege as a white woman has both protected and hurt her: she never had to grapple with the most damaging consequences of her disease, and she never got to experience both the joy and the messiness of becoming an adult…until now.
