I agree 100% I wish they’d continue to develop him in a better way than having him do better to then become an asshole. I felt like he was kind of supportive in some episodes leading up to those controlling ones, which confused me personally as I thought he was developing as a character. I’m hoping that one day, if they decide to carry on with the show again, that they’d show how open minded Danny became and how Mindy got everything she wanted.

Yes, exactly I was also confused! I think it's because of those moments where he was supportive that him becoming such a controlling asshole felt especially off-putting and jarring. Yeah if the show ever came back somehow I'd hope we'd see some improvement for Danny and Mindy too.

I sort of understand where Danny comes from, he grows up with a mom who’s working two jobs, hates it and his dad abandoned him and he truly never dealt with these issues which when he’s with Mindy he has to face because she brings that out in him. His own trauma ruined his life and in a way he thinks it’ll happen with Leo so he doesn’t want it to happen, if that makes sense?

Yeah...I get that his childhood was traumatic and influenced how he approached his relationship with Mindy, but for me that still doesn't excuse how he treated her and the manipulative actions he took to try and make her stay home. Like you said, being with Mindy forced him to face these issued, so if he'd addressed them with Mindy he could've avoided ruining his own life.
