Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

patofox_m4a1 I was really excited to take a look at this show because of Aziz Ansari. I saw him before on Parks and Rec and of course some of his stand-up material as well. I found a wonderful show, with colorful characters and entertaining conversation that always left me wanting for more. The show basically deals with Ansari's character Dev's life in New York City. We get to know his closest friends, his professional and love life through the strongest weapon of this show in my humble opinion: the dialogue. Each episode deals with a theme in particular, which I believe are the same themes and topics that Aziz Ansari addresses in his own stand-up routines. Many of these themes includes Dev's religious parents and indian idiosyncracy, his love for food, being a struggling indian actor, technology, the elderly, women and dating. All of these is seen through the eyes of Ansari's offbeat character, and the mixture of characters that comprise his group of friends which include his black lesbian friend, his Asian-descent friend and a tall chubby white friend, along with other characters of Indian ethnicity like his parents and some of his fellow actors. So, talk about diversity right? This combination of characters is another thing that really makes this show, besides its humorous script and the ever-loving context of the city of New York. I watched it and fell in love, now is your turn.

FilmBuff1994 Master of None is a terrific television series with very well written episodes and an excellent cast that are capable of going from zany comedy to sincere effortlessly. It is not at all what I expected from Aziz Ansari, it is so much richer and more developed than anything I have seen him do previously, Netflix clearly gave him freedom to do what he wanted and he did not hold back for a second. The cast and crew clearly made the effort to make every episode stand out and never having one be like another, and you can see this. While there is great plotlines that continue over the course of the first two seasons, there are also out there episodes, like one that follows Dev on multiple dates, and another that follows a whole host of new characters from different parts of their town, the show continued to surprise me. One thing I will say about the show is that it rushes some arcs that I think could have been far more established. It has a tendency to bring up something huge about a character, and then moves on, there is certainly a lot more scope that could be given when the series hopefully comes back for more seasons. The cast is absolutely phenomenal, all Emmy worthy performances. I could not possibly name out every great performance here, but the likes of Aziz Ansari, Eric Wareheim, Lena Waithe, Alessandra Mastronardi, Aziz's real life father Shoukath Ansari and Bobby Cannavale all truly blew me away with their deliveries of characters that they easily could have been caricatures of, but instead played with amazing balance. Funny and enriching. Hilarious, beautifully acted and original, I would certainly recommend Master of None to anybody looking for a good comedy series. Follows the life of Dev, a man trying to make a professional career as an actor, as well as searching for love. Best Performance: Aziz AnsariBest Episode: The Thief/ Worst Episode: Religion

bertler-1 Sad, funny, unusual, beautiful, heartwarming, not the typical American average - a little masterpiece!

Nevin Dalvin An example of a great immigrant drama set amidst present day New York city with comedy as sublime. Started with a slow pace in the first season the comedy drama elevated to its original content and suspense. But with the arrival of second season Aziz Ansari as a character as well as director transformed into Elite TV show. First season mainly deals with the struggle of an immigrant (Indian) in New York city and how he struggles to lead a common life like any of white counterparts. Aspiring to become an actor it makes it twice harder for Dev (Aziz Ansari) as he's a man of his own principles. The series even though circle around the life of Dev, his friend circle is just amazingly put together as they're too outcasts and misfits in their own ways. One could observe the beauty by which the reality around is shown in a subtle and sweet way revolving around each themes in each episodes. The show tries to challenge the morality set by the society which involves a set of rules people have placed forward to the generations after them. As the character development occurs and when the first season reaches its climax is the only time when one realizes that all the while the story was weaved around one character. The second season kicks off with an episode in Italy completely shot in a noir is a legit start to the season yet again it builds up a small tempo and gets intense towards the end. Second season tries to focus more on the stories of other characters as well but at the end they're connected to Dev in one way or the other. Apart from poor acting from couple of actors the acting part is well handled through out the series. Direction has been great so far without much of a drag like the most TV series out there. Series includes great references across the pop culture and often pulls out some classic puns. One good way of knowing the cultural diversity in and around New York city with some great comedy, drama and acting.
