    She's pretty ordinary, IMO.

    I enjoyed the show a lot. If you like Aziz Ansari, you'll like Master of None. If you've read his book Modern Romance, you'll notice a lot of overlap between it and the series.

    The show is millennial cat nip.

    Watched the first season over the past week.

    Pretty funny. High points were when Dev was out and about, interacting with other people. Low points were just him and his GF, when it got a bit too serious.

    I started off thinking that it was 'Millennial Jerry Seinfeld with infinite money code in New York' but switched my opinion to 'Millennials are people too!'. Neither is a terrible premise.

    I really liked the examination of passive racism in America. Aziz is a smart, observant guy.

    Good, solid comedy, I'll watch season two.

    Were those Ansari's actual parents playing Dev's folks? I have to say, the acting/delivery was distractingly bad.

    I actually like his fathers bad acting, but his mom is tough to watch.

    I liked this guy in Parks & Recreation, but I don't really find him all that funny as a stand-up comedian. Despite being very popular, he is definitely not in the same league as guys like Louis CK, IMO.

    How is this show so funny when the acting and delivery are so bad.
    Any episodes with arnie and denise is guaranteed to be great.

    Aziz trying too hard trying to be like Richard Linklater. Season 2 was solid overall but enjoyed Season 1 more.
