Aziz Ansari balances sharp social commentary with just enough earnest introspection to craft a special that, while not without its baggage, shows how far the comedian has come - and how far he may still have to go.

The jokes here are by turns extremely earnest and extremely cynical, and there is insight buzzing in the messy mergers of the two. Jul 11, 2019 | Full Review…

By framing the new special around his personal story, and also trimming and refining some weak spots, his act now coheres, taking on a new force and clarity, one that represents his finest, boldest and probably most polarizing work. Jul 10, 2019 | Full Review…

[T]his is still the work of a comedy veteran who channels righteous fed-up-ness and critiques obliviousness with relatable flair. Jul 10, 2019 | Full Review…

Complaining about "wokeness" could easily come off as out of touch and cranky, but Ansari largely avoids that trap by cracking slyly scathing jokes. Jul 10, 2019 | Full Review…

Aziz Ansari feels guilty, grateful, angry, ashamed, bewildered and chastened. He's quite funny about some of these emotions. Not so funny about others. Jul 10, 2019 | Full Review…

Ansari's gags, whether poking fun at himself or his gullible audience, have a soul-searching feel, as if the tainted comic is exploring where he fits amidst all these debates and controversies. Jul 13, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Ansari's special is funny, although the tone and delivery of it are less animated than his earlier material; he sounds tired at times, even when he starts laughing. Jul 12, 2019 | Full Review…

Just as [Aziz Ansari's] actions caused me to look inward, 'Right Now' has the same effect. Ansari wants people to do what the title of his special suggests: Look at who you are right now and how you live right now. It's an impressive analysis of humanity. Jul 11, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

A cynical part of me that thinks it's almost too perfect... I'll give him this much: He nails it. I'm not sure he could have delivered a better special for this moment. Jul 11, 2019 | Full Review…

Aziz Ansari: Right Now feels like necessary viewing in 2019. He makes the case that we're living in times when the knee-jerk drive to pick a side on any loaded issue can seem overwhelming. Jul 10, 2019 | Full Review…
