it's as if no one on this show can actually act

Even Aziz Ansari himself looks a lot less natural on this than he did on Parks & Rec. I see he cast his own parents - that figures (and btw, that permanent eyeliner under the eyes (with no other makeup to boot) is just painful to look at). Wouldn't be surprised if he hired his real-life friends as well - the black lesbian is especially awful.

To say that Claire Danes and Noah Emmerich are head and shoulders above the rest of the cast would be an understatement.
