Reception Critical response Season Critical response Rotten Tomatoes Metacritic 100 % ( 55 reviews ) 91 ( 31 reviews ) 100 % ( 42 reviews ) 91 ( 24 reviews ) Season 1 On Rotten Tomatoes, the first season holds an approval rating of 100 % based on 55 reviews, with an average rating of 9 / 10. The site 's critical consensus reads, `` Exceptionally executed with charm, humor, and heart, Master of None is a refreshingly offbeat take on a familiar premise. '' On Metacritic, the series has a score of 91 out of 100, based on 31 critics, indicating `` universal acclaim ''. James Poinewozik of The New York Times called it `` the year 's best comedy straight out of the gate '' and a `` mature rom - com. '' IGN 's Matt Fowler gave the entire first season an 8.8 out of 10, saying `` by the second episode it takes flight and offers up a very funny, unique take on food, dating, relationships, etc ( the usual suspects ). Ansari is a smart and engaging presence and his perspective on things lends itself very well to this type of single - camera comedy. And his supporting cast, particularly Wells, is on point. A few episodes may have fizzled out right at the finish... but there 's no denying Master of None 's success overall. '' James Dempsey of Newstalk described the show as `` like a transatlantic cousin of Ricky Gervais ' Extras, another story of an actor navigating show business and his personal life. But whereas that show relied heavily on stunt cameos of Hollywood actors playing pantomime versions of themselves -- along with painfully blunt awkwardness that attempts to wring every possible laugh out of increasingly cringe comedy -- Master of None is content and confident to let the viewer warm to it entirely on its terms. And it 's all the better for it. '' Season 2 On Rotten Tomatoes, the second season also holds an approval rating of 100 % based on 42 reviews, with an average rating of 8.9 / 10. The site 's critical consensus reads, `` Master of None 's second season picks up where its predecessor left off, delivering an ambitious batch of episodes that builds on the show 's premise while adding surprising twists.

Jaime Lutz from Time Out New York has called it the best TV show of 2015.
