Despite bringing in lower-than-expected returns in the third quarter of 2015, Netflix still has plenty of intriguing projects on the horizon, including several new original series. The next series to make its debut will be Master of None, a comedy starring Aziz Ansari that will premiere on November 6th.
Master of None stars Ansari as Dev, a semi-autobiographical romantic who lives in New York City. In the show’s recently released trailer, we can get a feel for the sort of topics Dev and his friends will explore. The central theme is love, which is a favorite topic of Ansari’s; the stand-up comic and former Parks and Recreation cast member recently authored a book called Modern Romance, in which he opines on the nature of dating in the 21st century.
Other themes discussed in the trailer include race–with particular attention paid to Dev’s (and Ansari’s) South Asian ancestry–and food, which is well known as one of Ansari’s biggest passions.
Master of None continues a longstanding relationship between Ansari and Netflix. The comic previously released two enjoyable stand-up specials exclusively on the streaming video platform. His series will be a much bigger commitment, but don’t expect the quality to sag; Ansari is a seasoned performer, and the trailer for Master of None includes plenty of laughs.
