May 2, 2019It took me about 3.5 episodes to get hooked, and it just keeps improving throughout the season. The more you understand the characters, their struggles and their motivations, the better it gets.

Apr 21, 2019The show we've all been waiting for!! Finally Muslim Americans on TV the right way *not necessarily the only way * I love it, it's clever in its own right and funny for all: Muslims, Arabs, and everyone else! It's Really refreshing to see something like this as I'm almost 20 and sorta still growing up. Hope this opens the door for more and I wish to see more!

Apr 21, 2019The execution is unapologetic and delivers the message its supposed to deliver so well. There is a powerful underlying message about how everyone goes through similar struggles irregardless of ethnicity and religious beliefs. It kind of came across as a 'Muslim version of Atlanta'.

Apr 21, 2019I think it just gets better every episode and I think in past years Muslim kids really struggle with the Muslim life and modern life happy for Hulu for that show

Apr 21, 2019I watched the first two episodes and this might be the funniest show I've ever seen! It's refreshing to see a Muslim American actor in a lead comedic role.

May 15, 2019Ramy fits in the same category as High Maintenance. It's real, and it's darn funny.

Jun 5, 2019In grounding the show in "outsider" experiences, it truly speaks to everyone. Every episode has great heart, laughs and thoughtfulness. No one is a binary good or bad, everyone is layered and interesting. Its a show that delves into what it means to be a human being just as much as a muslim american.

May 10, 2019As I expected ... not funny and too religious. Maybe inside jokes for "insiders".

It’s initially a slow burn, but through it all, Ramy consistently subverts and redirects expectations, and doesn’t hide from tough contradictions, such as Muslim relatives who admire Trump or Ramy’s unsuccessful attempts to abstain for Ramadan.
-
Ramy is an earnest exploration of Muslim identity that at times runs toward saccharine; one gets the impression that the show, mindful that the mere act of being Muslim in America is provocative, has carefully neutered itself of anger. But Ramy makes up for this with an unflinching, transgressive portrait of American Islam, one that holds both its traditions and its deviations from tradition in the same embrace. With squirming detail, Ramy pays attention to the bodies of its characters.
-
The deeper explorations of Shadi and Maysa’s lives are welcome, but they’re too brief. The season might have had even greater impact had it focused more on developing its supporting characters, though one imagines Ramy will make room for that in its inevitable second season. But that’s a minor complaint, as the weight of Ramy’s journey is both significant and unforgettable.
