Finished watching it, it's pretty good. I thought the characters and most of the dialogue were really well done. Good acting all around as well. But man, the cinematography is really sub-par in this show and some of the scripting and directing is noticeably bad as well. Best example I can think of is when Gus is having his theme song party and it keeps transitioning between that and laughably mundane shots of Mickey and Bertie trying to find his apartment. It felt like the showrunners had consistent trouble trying to find interesting ways to transition between scenes/scenarios or keep a good quality with A and B plots (Gus & Mickey) when they're seperate.
It doesn't do everything better imo. Master of None has some really spotty acting, writing, editing, and some undercooked characterization. What Master of None does have is a lot more creativity in it, much better direction and cinematography, and I do think it's the better show. Love kinda feels just like more Showtime LA focused stuff, where as Master of None really takes on it's own style and is just much more interesting despite it's shortcomings. They're significantly different though despite focusing on a lot of the same things (people in their early 30s dating, figuring out life shit, etc.).
