Master Of None: 10 Reasons It's The Most Underrated Netflix Original Series
10. It Appreciates Everyday Situations
No current show handles the everyday with such gusto as Master of None. Azari and Yang are genuinely fascinated with everyday moments and through their writing bring out the most out of situations which are usually taken for granted by almost everyone. This is best exemplified by episode nine, season one, Mornings. In it Dev and Rachel learn that everyday life, while sometimes boring, even infuriating, should actually be appreciated.
This doesn't mean that the show avoids complicated topics like religion or tradition. It's just that it handles them with unseen simplicity. The fact that these issues are stripped to basics and applied to regular situations - like really enjoying pork, but being unable to eat it because of being Muslim - allows for a deeper discussion. Confronting ideology with regular situations is a source of humor, yet it also checks if a given worldview is actually sustainable and achievable.
