A funny and introspective comedy that explores the life of a diverse group of friends in New York City. It mainly focuses on Dev Shah (Aziz Ansari) and his romantic and career paths through his late 20's and early 30's, but there is some focus on other great side characters like his pals Arnold (Eric Wareheim) and Denise (Lena Waithe), as well as romantic interests like Rachel (Noel Wells) and Francesca (Alessandra Mastronardi). It's a bit of an anti-sitcom as there aren't cohesive storylines throughout, but it does have some connections to "Seinfeld" with its observational comedy, flawed and vibrant group of friends, and its connected setting of New York City. This series excels with blending its observational comedy with the growth of its characters, though its third season definitely appears to be focused on a more art-decor style compared with the first two seasons. Overall, I hope the series continues to find new material to explore, and I look forward to a fourth season in the future that allows a deeper dive into Dev's personal triumphs and tribulations.

(+) Great blend of observational and introspective comedy/romance
(+) Solid casting of interesting characters
(+) Groundbreaking subject matter, especially with minorities in the entertainment world
(+) Solid camerawork and artsy framing of shots
(=) Some cliche rom-com moments
(=) A bit immature at times, especially with characters facing moments of personal growth
(-) A diverging third season that isn't "bad", but definitely alters the tone of the show

Final Verdict: 7.32/10 (Good)
