Critics Consensus
An insightful and hilarious glimpse into the life of a Muslim American family, Ramy perfectly articulates the precarious nature and nuances of identity and announces Ramy Youssef is a talent to watch.
Yasmine AlSayyad The New Yorker The show’s brilliance lies less in recognizing extra pressures that Muslim women are under than in recognizing their tact and determination in pursuing what they want. Dec 8, 2022 Full Review Hugo Rifkind Times (UK) Ramy has similarities with hipster comedies in the Girls vein, but it’s not nearly so blithe. This is a comedy of excruciating humiliations and unforgivable sins, and while frequently hilarious often not really a comedy at all. Aug 12, 2022 Full Review Lara Zarum Globe and Mail The show is more thoughtful than laugh-out-loud funny, but it handles its soul-searching subject matter with a light touch. Mar 5, 2020 Full Review Linnete Manrique PopMatters Ramy's representation of the Muslim-American experience, the first-generation immigrant experience, and the bilingual experience, is a necessary and welcome addition to the millennial dramedy genre. Rated: 7/10 Jul 20, 2021 Full Review Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) Wise and funny and sad and (slowly) redemptive: what more might one ask? Feb 9, 2021 Full Review Pat Stacey Irish Independent We should detest Ramy, yet the script throws a curve-ball that adds another layer to him- he makes you both laugh and think.

Jon H An interesting take on a fascinating culture. The show was well directed and season 1 was very enjoyable. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/11/24 Full Review Ja L Like Louie but with a comedian who isn't funny, intelligent, or likeable. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/16/23 Full Review raghda e Very poor comedy with no emotional nor intellectual insight for his journey towards finding his true self. Mainly revolves around a horny 20 something man who wants a ticket to perform sexual acts ,including adultery, while pretending to fight or stay true to himself. Something that I really think didn't need to be shed light on for the entire show. All in all I wasted a 3 seasons worth of hours on watching a series and I got out with nothing, nothing about the character except for the sexual mania part and his dilemma with that issue. A typical American comedy with an Islamic spice to it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/31/23 Full Review B C This show is wonderful. Absolutely, wonderful. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/13/22 Full Review Audience Member I found the show most entertaining and realistic.The show brings a much needed exposure to everyday problems Arabic speaking migrants experience and endure. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Hilarious, deserves it's high rating! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
