Aziz Ansari: Right Now

It was lovely to see a comedian talk about mind-opening subjects, such as being completely present in each moment, especially the ones we share with out loved ones. I was also happy he mentioned some of the cognitive biases that shape our judgments and conclusions we make based on biased research. And finally, he is pretty funny.

I've been a big Aziz fan, for a long time. Super talented guy. Great comedy. He's making amends for his mistakes. Ya gotta applaud that, but the low talking was really irritating. Aziz, if you are reading this, please refrain from whispering in your next special! I hope that Netflix picks up your show, again. Still, good stand up.

This was simply brilliant by Ansari. I've watched a few of his older stand-up specials and although they were on some parts "laugh out loud funny" - I also found them quite uneven in the material and the overall construction of an hour set.

Following his unfortunate and quite unfairly involvement in the #metoo allegations this special comes naturally with a sense of "elephant in the room" feeling. Aziz spares no time addressing it and gives an honest and heartfelt view of the situation that in payback set's up a deeper connection with the audience and provides an environment where he can perform his material with no restrictions.

Considering he's the main star of his great Netflix show "Master of None", it becomes an obviously ironic truth that's he's in real life actually now a "Master of his Craft". His social criticism ares as sharp and up to date as few other comedians manages and the way he transitions between the jokes and the more personal insights are really...well admirable actually.

If you enjoy stand up comedy, then this is a must watch! 10/10

As a fan of Aziz from his work on Television such as Parks and Recreation and Master of None, I haven't watched any of his previous specials. Knowing the situation that he was involved in in the height of the "Me Too" movement, I was wondering how he would or if he would come back to television / stand up again and after turning on Netflix today I was surprised to see this stand up special.

I usually don't enjoy stand up specials as there are only a few comedians I would sit down and watch an hour + of so going in, I wasn't sure what to expect.

The director chosen for this special was in my opinion what made this special so unique. It's not filmed with multiple cameras, perfect shots, lots of lights and hd quality. Aziz chose to use about 2 camera men with rigs attached to them to be on stage / in the audience to deliver a very fresh take on a stand up special.

Comedy wise the stories told and the way he delivers them left me laughing and then he manages to take a moment from comedic, to heartfelt and beautiful with stories of his grandmother or reflections on life.

Regardless of what you may think of him after what he was involved in, I believe how he handles this special and explains where he's at in life is a perfect example of how somebody can change as a person and use their experiences to help others learn from their mistakes.

This is definitely one of the best stand- ups (if I can even put it in that category) I have seen in a long time and the different artistic direction with the overall message really makes this a great return for Aziz.

Aziz Ansari brought in some sweet genuine moments lased in humor and genuinity in this special of his. Definitely worth a watch.
