Critic Reviews

It doesn’t really make sense to list the stand-outs because there that would imply the existence of lesser episodes, and there are none. Still several installments epitomize the care with which Ansari and Yang have crafted multidimensional characters and situation.

This is a great show, which you might expect given the number of "Parks" veterans involved (including Mike Schur in a godfather capacity as one of the executive producers), but which still feels surprising given the show's clever structure and eagerness to embrace other perspectives.

By the end of the season, Master of None is so confident in its tone and execution that it almost feels like a show in its fourth or fifth year.... Yes, this year of Peak TV continues. And this is one of its best shows.

It's innovative, shockingly clever, sophisticated, sexy, and beautifully executed. In other words, it's the opposite of virtually every sitcom in prime time.

Master of None, the year’s best comedy straight out of the gate, is a lot of things.

The best new TV comedy this fall isn't actually on TV.... Master of None is very much in the style of "Louis," except it is funnier. Really. It's far less about drama and more about comedy. This is a show for adults, about adults.

Quippy, topical but also thoughtful, Master of None is perfectly binge-worthy and thus the ideal Netflix show. If you start watching, be sure to set aside time for all 10 episodes.

Like "Louie" before it, Master of None is unpredictable in where it's headed next. It uses the natural rhythms of life--of conversation--to move forward with the topics Ansari and Yang want to discuss.

As you would expect, very (very) funny.

A polished jewel of the genre starring an actor-comedian who has seized this opportunity and soared with it.
