Aziz Ansari Live at Madison Square Garden

Step 1: Open with "something something white people" Step 2: Say a few generic statements with the sole purpose of eliciting an applause from the audience ("white people are racist" / "immigrants are great") Step 3: Repeat step 2 for an hour

Did you follow these steps? Congrats, I hear Netflix is looking to give you a few million dollars for your cutting-edge, groundbreaking, totally fresh and original special!

I don't get the hype. This stand-up was terrible and felt terribly manufactured. Didn't find it funny at all.

I got side stitches from laughing. Aziz is brilliant. Don't know what everybody's else's issue is.

I genuinely don't understand what people find amusing about this person's attempt to be a comedian or an actor. On the logic that selling out Madison Square Garden might lend to a decent show, my wife and I really tried to watch this performance. After 10 minutes of listening to him just talk, it was apparent to us that there was nothing in this show that could considered clever or witty, so we found something else to watch. It felt like he was simply riding the fame that he garnished from his exceptionally unnecessary character in the "Parks and Recreation" television show.

Damn, five reviews and all negative. Don't worry, I've come to shed a positive light on the matter. So I've seen three stand-up specials of Aziz Ansari and I have to say Live in Madison Square Garden is probably his best to date. I've enjoyed his comedy on shows like Parks and Recreation and his own show Master of None. He has this particular goofy and somewhat childish style that seems to work for his little persona and it sorta fits with his image too. On this special he talks a little bit about immigrants, the food industry (he manages to include his Ja Rule impersonation and calls it his "struggle" to be able to combine both in a bit), and I think that his take on how friendships, being single and relationships are nowadays were spot on! He even asked one woman to give him her cellphone so he could read her messages with some guy she was seeing just to prove his previous point. I'm aware that Aziz's style may not be everyone's cup of tea but I had fun and laughed at many of his jokes and I would definitely watch it again.
