Master of None

Usually I would never go out and actually make the bold move of writing my opinion, let alone writing a review, but for this one I had to seeing how so many people are shrugging the show off for being "bland comedy".

Frankly the show is much more than just a comedy, its more of an emotional roller-coaster. It takes different real life situation and problems and introduces them to the viewers in the a more comical way. That is what good comedians do, they are able to integrate real life with a comical twist and Aziz Ansari has not failed to do so.

There are a few down points here and there, like the seemingly half hearted acting of his parents, but give them credit since they are his ACTUAL parents with no acting background.

Long Story Short, This isn't a sit com, this isn't a Modern Family like unreal comedy, its real life situations and stories told through a comedians prospective.

The realness of this show is what hit me the most. It's labeled as comedy and that's certainly the first hook. Aziz Ansari is a good comedian, and I recommend his stand-up.

But it's as much the comedy as the sad moments in this show (and the excellent music sprinkled throughout) that make it special.

It's a show that feels so real and unscripted at times that I find myself having flashbacks and experiencing raw feelings as they are being evoked from some hidden depths of my own memory, of things that have happened.

I am convinced great comedians have this ability of brutal honesty that goes beyond the funny, it touches the true core of what being a human is, and how culture and society intermingle to form a person.

Aziz and the writers of this show have shown to possess this quality.

I appreciate the experimental nature of this season both in general and In comparison to the previous two seasons

Nevertheless I thought his season was tedious to a fault in terms of execution and overall story

Naomi Ackie is fantastic and hope her name is considered when it comes to awards season

I've rewatched the first two seasons and realistically will rewatch them again in the future

I doubt I will ever rewatch this season.

I'm talking about S3. If you like Arthouse drama you will love S3. I think is genius. In my opinion Aziz Ansari got some serious drama talent. I understand why people don't like S3, it is not Master of None it is an entirely different genre and could easily be named differently, maybe it should be.

So, if you hate slow, heavy but also ballsy and beautiful drama, avoid S3.

Yes, S1 & S2 packed with sharp and comedic scenes (fantastic writing!). Season 3 is a different animal, but I think it's really good. Aziz did excellent job (he seemed learned a lot)! Although perhaps he should create a different series with S3 so some particular fans of S1 & S2 won't feel "betrayed".
