'Master of None' premieres November 6.

Aziz Ansari has released the trailer for his Netflix series, Master of None.

Aziz plays Dev, a 30-year-old actor who tries to figure out the rest of his life. He asks his father how many women he dated before getting married and meets his girlfriend Rachel's grandmother, though while still deciding whether he wants to marry her—what seems like a fine enough plot for a romantic comedy. 

Yet the funnier bits in Master of None deal with sexism and ethnicity in more pointed ways than network TV would have allowed, while also distinguishing Aziz's point of view from the similarly self-deprecating Woody Allen or Louis CK. When a casting agent tells Aziz to use his Indian accent like Ben Kingsley in Gandhi, Aziz fires back: "But he didn't win the Oscar just for doing the accent. It wasn't an Oscar for Best Indian Accent."

Master of None debuts November 6 and also features Noel Wells as Rachel (Saturday Night Live), Kelvin Yu (Star Trek), Lena Waithe (Dear White People) and Aziz's actual parents as his parents. Watch the trailer below.
