    Riz Ahmed’s maverick Prime series oscillates from boldness to hilarity — sometimes in the same instance — throughout all six of its under-25-minute episodes. It’s that potent balance that makes it one of the smartest and best streaming shows you’ll watch this year.

    Ahmed created the series, and he’s clearly having a blast making fun of himself and wringing laughs from the situations he puts his alter ego into, absurd as they often are.

    As a brown actor auditioning to be the next James Bond, Riz Ahmed makes this so-called sitcom bait for viewers to consider the deeper implications of racial and cultural identity. It’s the freshest and funniest series of the new year.
