Master of None

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.

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.

Different/adjacent stories are necessary. Possibly would have been better to be a new series named 'Moments in Love' rather than the expectation of a story continuation focused around the character 'Dev'. It doesn't seem as though the first two seasons were intended to be a 'Limited Series'?

Master of None is a Netflix original TV-series that at first glance looks nothing more than your mediocre story with a single guy trying to find his love of his life. After watching through the first season one can absolutely say that it is more than that, it is funny, romantic, and sad. And goes deeper than most romance themed movies and shows.

Master Of None focuses on Dev (Played by Aziz Anzari), an Indian- American who is in his 30's and is still single. In his journey of finding the perfect girl he continuously turn down girls, always trying to find someone better, all this without knowing that the perfect girl is none existing, but only attainable in the right mindset. Every episode spread his journey out, from dating, social life and work life. While the story might not in itself sound original, the message is bigger than what the eye can see. It is not about his journey, but what he discovers while uncovering it. The story is entertaining, but the message is not really noticed before your good in the season. What I feel is important to address is that every episode is special, one episode will make you laugh, while another might give you the chills when it gets heated. However most of the episodes are somewhat more mixed, giving you a "I really want to laugh, but it might be a little inappropriate" Feel.

Dev is definitely a great protagonist. He is the good guy, always fighting to make the perfect choices, but the cast is bigger. I will definitely say that the cast is spot on, every character feel believable, even the parents to Dev (Who is Aziz actual parents). They do however have some less believable moments, but never anything noteworthy. Rachel (played by Noel Well) is definitely one of my favorite character, she is easily likable, which is important after how much time she uses with Dev. The chemistry between Dev and Rachel feels believable, and exciting, making those Cuddly scenes more entertaining and believable than in other shows and movies.

As said earlier, episodes are different and some of them more emotional filled compared to other who will make you laugh more. It is a nice twist compared to other shows who feels the same every time. It is more believable with episodes that are different in themes. Just like life, Sometimes it is fun, sometimes it's not. You can therefore relate a lot to the show.

Overall, Master of None is a stretched out romantic journey that really doesn't tell something new, but something better. The content is cared for, and feels relate able. The Cinematography is great, and sometimes it is just done perfectly. Master Of None is gonna make you laugh at most, but still make you question both yourself, and our society for the better.

The first two seasons are basically a small masterpiece. The Long awaited third season however is a spin-off and doesn't really have anything to do with the first two seasons and follow other characters for only 5 episodes. Although I have not yet met anyone getting through all five episodes. I really tried. I wanted to like the third season, but yeah, no.

Why does it switch to celluloid film and 4:3 when the rest of the series has not been shot this way? Why is it only five episodes with so many years passing in some of them? Why is it an (very failed and flawed) art film cut up in a few acts? Why is it called season 3 when it is clearly not just a spin off, but also not even in the style of the original series? Did Aziz just watch a lot of classic European movies and think "Hey, I should try to blatantly copy this for my series that has nothing of this sort really otherwise"? Also, it is actually a poorly made version of that with the timing off concerning the awkward moments etc.

I usually don't write reviews here, but wanted to recommend the first two seasons and also wan people about the third.
