Master of None (Aziz Ansari, Netflix) TV Show • Page 15

You're the worst.

 

Don't worry, I love LOVE. But I can understand it being a somewhat acquired taste with the character of Gus

 

It should be noted that I watch Grey's Anatomy so my taste in television is exquisite.

 

God dammit.

 

About halfway through this season and I'm loving it. First Date was spectacular.

I don't like Love because, aside from the usual Apatow bloat, I know people like Gus in Mickey in real life and they are incredibly toxic and not fun to be around, therefore I don't enjoy watching them in a TV show.

 

Finally started this show after hearing so many good things. Only watched the first three eps so far, it reminds me a lot of Louie at the moment.

 

I finished S2 and I'm so sad it's over.

 

This season rivaled Louie in terms of emotion, comedy, heartbreak, and every other possible feeling somehow meshed together without ever feeling forced

 

guess I should watch louie sometime eh

 

speaking of Louie, and this show to an extent

 

Tbh on this dating episode the Ramaniac is probably the best match

 

Louie is one of my fav shows, its brilliant

 

Great now we have to redo the thread because we forgot to compare Louis with MoN, YTW and Love.

Does anyone remember Moffat's Coupling? I haven't watched it again so I'm not sure if it holds up well.

 

nah it's the master of none, louie, atlanta comparison that needs to happen you know, gotta compare all these prestige dramedies

 

I feel like Casual should be thrown in with those. I haven't watched any of the others but from what I hear that sounds right

 

This website needs a "Compare Things General" thread

 

that'd literally just be kanye rankings 90% of the thread

Holy shit the long shot at the end of the Dinner Party was great as is the sequence with the deaf characters in New York, I Love You.

More than anything, I love how earnest this show is.

Man, those last two episodes were really beautiful. They dug me deep.

Though I have to say, the inclusion of the Perv Chef Jeff B-plot in the finale felt really out of place. Of course, the message it was sending is very important. But it felt so disconnected to where the plot as a whole was with Dev/Fran at that point that it would have worked a lot better as a standalone somewhere else.

I can't think of another season of a show that both had episodes that were all time classics and episodes that were an insane chore to get through.

 

The Chef Jeff thing could have used one more episode to put a ribbon on it. I thought it was gonna be a character development moment for Dev in realizing how poorly he treated Francesca and that never happened.

 

Yeah, Dev definitely has his flaws, but I appreciate that the show doesn't shy away from depicting him as a jerk sometimes

 

I liked the Chef Jeff B Plot culminating in the finale because it would have been too neat to wrap it up cleanly or directly before/after settling up the Francesca stuff
