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.

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.

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.

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.

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".
