Master of None (TV Series) The Other Man (2015) User Reviews

"I'm just here to fix the closet!"

[onion_bums · 9/10 · 31 December 2015]

Dev is one of the best characters in any sitcom ever. Him being an Indian makes him all the more relate-able for me.

"You're cheating on me with a little Indian guy?" was just hilarious. In fact, the whole scene where Mark discovers Dev hiding in the closet and Nina cheating on him was both written and performed brilliantly.

Colin was another great thing in this episode.The Domino was a great visual effect one rarely expects in a comedy.

The only thing I believe is wrong with this episode is they don't show Brian or Benjamin. I felt they could add on to the humour with their views and/or dialogue.

Great to see guest actors like Clair Danes and Noah Emmerich!

To Cheat or Not To Cheat?

[LorenBieg · 9/10 · 22 January 2018]

A surprise turn from the great Claire Danes lights up "The Other Man", which explores the meaning, effect, and outcome of cheating. Claire Danes is exceptionally cast. But, duh. This episode elevates the whole series in my opinion. Everyone has something to say about whether and when cheating may or may not be ok. Honesty is replete and and the story presents plenty to talk about afterwards, as is typical for Master Of None. But, more than any previous episode, the series is beginning to play like one long movie. And I mean that as a compliment. No scene is wasted. Great dialogue throughout. High production values. And performances are effortless and nothing feels so natural as if unrehearsed.

A Great Episode

"Master of None" doesn't have a particularly good track record, but this episode and the one before it (Indians on TV) were truly exceptional. The concept is hilarious. Dev's story is great in this episode, as is Denise's "Denise Experience" new running gag.

I love the line "you're cheating on my with a little Indian guy!?" That was perfectly executed, as was the entire dialogue that followed, and the scene at the end of the episode. "Sorry for cutting in line at the ice cream place, I was coked out of my mind." Hilarious.

Anyway, a great episode to a decent show presents itself in "Master of None."
