This is literally marketing 101, you’re overthinking it

He does promote it some but hes a weird case because it creates an association with Always Sunny, that probably wasnt the primary comparison they wanted to invite. He also just might not want to since hes busy.

He doesn’t play the main character. Fred is not even the main character of the original series.

No, pretty sure Mindy would just be blaming the haters for not getting the jokes.

They've had success with her before, and, again, she's putting her name on the product. It's fair that she get the criticism when it comes to the overall production of the show.

I don't think she's getting unfair criticism. If anything, this show should immediately be cancelled by HBO for being the woke garbage that it is.
