Everyone’s favorite coming-of-age comedy will be heading back to Netflix on July 15. The Mindy-Kaling led series, which is based on her own childhood experiences, has captivated audiences for its authentic and honest portrayals of trivial high school drama, love triangles, and strong representation. When we last saw the emotional and explosive Season 1 finale, we saw a development in the Ben, Devi, and Paxton love triangle, among other things.

The new season promises to be exciting and still focused on bringing sensitive topics to light. YEM got the chance to speak to Jaren Lewison, who plays Ben in the series. He had been the arch-nemesis to Devi, but he is possibly becoming more. Jaren spoke with us about being Team Ben or Team Paxton, the show’s success as well as representation, working with Mindy Kaling, and balancing school and acting.
