Master of None is an American comedy series which is aired on Netflix. The series premiered on November 6, 2015.

The show follows the personal and professional lives of Dev, a 30-year-old actor who has trouble deciding what he wants to eat, much less the pathway for the rest of his life. Dev’s story takes him through subjects as diverse as the plight of the elderly, the immigrant experience, and how to find the most delicious pasta for dinner.

I then go completely in the other direction than Gum: Getting older is not easy. The good childhood memories disappear further and further in the rearview mirror. Getting older means growing up. It means thinking about your future. What do I really want with my life and with which people do I want to share my life? Perhaps more importantly, who do I want to share my life with and age with? Do I keep skirting or do I stick to one skirt? Master of None discusses these types of themes, among other things. However, the series also talks about growing up as children of immigrants in America, about the role of women in society, old age, friendship and maintaining and maintaining a relationship. Master of None has been hugely (let's say overwhelming) positively by critics. This will appear on several top ten lists this year. I understand why: this is a fantastic series! Undoubtedly one of the best new series of this year and in my opinion the best new comedy of the year. Aziz Ansari (Parks and Recreation) plays Dev. Dev is a thirty-year-old actor from New York. Dev mainly makes his money from commercial roles, but he also tries to land bigger roles. Life in New York is always an adventure with Dev. We see his friends, parents and potential loves pass by. Dev discusses life and everything that concerns them with his friends. Does Dev manage to make a career and score bigger roles. And, how will Dev fare in love? What makes Master of None so strong is that the series tells stories in a light, but striking way. These are stories that often remain underexposed on television. In the second episode called Parents, the Indian parents of Ansari (his real parents) and the father of his Taiwanese friend Brian tell about their coming to America. There you can see the sacrifices these people have made to give their families a better life. That while Dev and Brian already visit their parents with great pain and difficulty. The fourth episode called Indians on TV is about the image that is portrayed in the media about people from India. The stereotypes that white society adheres to and the behavior (and accent) that is expected of someone from India. These are extremely fascinating subjects that are not only told fascinating, but also very funny. It is also recognizable. You really don't have to be an immigrant (or child of an immigrant) to appreciate these humor and topics. Ansari tells enough universal stories that everyone could appreciate. Plenty to come in subsequent episodes. In addition, he is generous and plenty of characters are given engaging material to work with. Ansari shows that he is not only focused on himself / his vision of the world, but that he also has an eye for the point of view of others. Even tertiary characters are given exciting things to do. Master of None is so much more than Ansari's experiences. That actually comes up in every episode. Each episode presents an interesting theme that you as a viewer can sink your teeth into. Even something as simple as walking down the street with friends doesn't have to be boring when interesting things are discussed. It is also striking that not all of Dev's friends can be seen in every episode. Think about it: situations just like in Friends (or many other sitcoms or comedies) where you see your friends almost every day are not the way things are in real life. Especially if you are over thirty and most of them have a job / family. That simply takes a lot of time. At a certain point you just see each other less. That's part of it. I think everyone can agree. So if Ansari consciously did this in this way, it worked out very well as far as I am concerned. Something that more series / films can take as an example. Dev and Rachel's (Noel Wells) relationship also slowly unfolds throughout the season and slowly climaxes. As someone who is around the same age as Dev and Rachel, I certainly recognize myself in how their relationship is built. I know the feeling of always looking for something better. However, 'something better' is not always better. Sometimes 'better' just stands in front of you. You just have to want and dare to see it. I also recognize the pressure you can feel in a relationship when you are faced with expectations from the outside world. When you are faced with expectations of your partner. Finding a suitable partner today is hard enough, let alone maintaining a relationship. In this series you see the fun, the affection, the arguments and the struggles. You also see the grind that can occur in a relationship. We laugh together. We cry together. It can be a lot of fun. It can be very difficult. No relationship is perfect. The most important thing to remember from this series is that they are flesh and blood people. People who have to deal with successes and disappointments. No, again: this is a fantastic series. I call this a 'must'. For me it will undoubtedly go into the top ten this year, that's for sure. Now we have to wait for Netflix to give the series a second season. There is hardly any other way. This series has been so critically acclaimed that a second season is guaranteed. There is so much more in it. I say: let that second season come. Mr. Ansari, Mr. Vevie will see you next year!

Very annoying hear that flood disaster and hunger winter, but of course it is in stark contrast to all the inconvenience that our generation has to deal with today. For example, slurping flower bulb soup for weeks is no fun, but it is nothing compared to the discomfort you feel when you don't want to go home after that Tinder scrape while you have an important presentation for your work the next day. Or that growing aggression, as long as your demented father keeps calling you because he doesn't get his iPad's calendar synced with his computer. That's bad. Not even mentioning that pressing life question “Now that I am 35, do I really have to have a woman and children or is sleeping in after a spontaneous night out with a name from the black book much more fun?”. These and countless other questions come up in the new comedy Master of None, which Netflix tumbled into your computer last weekend. That's quite something, indeed. While stand-up comedian Aziz Ansari in Parks and Recreation had to share his fame with the rest of the cast, in Master of None he is the center of the universe. His name is Dev and he tries to take his career as an actor in commercials to the next level. The rent in New York is high and a role in some sort of serious movie would make it a lot easier to pay for it. In between auditions, Dev occasionally sips a drink with his friends and falls in love too. That Dev is busy with it. The whole idea of watching how slightly frustrated figures try to break through their thirties dilemma or midlife crisis is not exactly new. They did it in Togetherness, Happy-ish, Hello Ladies and Catastrophe and to be honest I thought they were all more primar for the look than Master of None. Now I have everything fresh in my mind, but in four weeks, ask me why you should watch this series and I can't tell you. It's a babble without too many highlights. A chuckle here and there, but that's about it. And which blind man watched Dev's parents audition and thought “We're going to win an Emmy with this!” ?! If they had given Bassie and Adriaan's robot a crash course in Punjabi, it probably would have sounded even smoother than Mr. and Miss. The V. The consumption. In any case, the level of the different episodes is far too dependent on the guest actors in my opinion. There are a few acquaintances in it, who have earned their spurs, but others would not even be able to quietly drink a drink at the bar of De Rozenboom at GTST with a rotating camera. It's been ten half an hour, so you just look Master of None away while you're waiting for that heating engineer to come between eight and twelve. Would come, because nine times out of ten they don't ring until three o'clock. Watch it and form your own opinion, but do not come over afterwards if it all turns out to be a waste of your time. I told you so. www.gumstarr.com
