5. Celebrities including Mahershala Ali and Mia Khalifa also appear in Season 2.

7. Ramy is also not a stereotypical view of Muslims in America, but rather an individual experience.
It interweaves all of Ramy's different identities — a millennial, an Egyptian-American, a Muslim, a brother, a son, and a friend.
8. Ramy Youssef does a phenomenal job playing the show's lead, and while he's a character who doesn't always make the wisest decisions, you constantly find yourself rooting for him.
He won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a TV Series, Musical or Comedy this year.
9. As a whole, the show mixes cringe comedy and drama, while tackling stronger topics like religion, the meaning of life, and prejudice in America.

10. In the show, Ramy has nuanced relationships with his friends and their conversations always have some sort of depth or meaning to them.
11. And while over the course of the show Ramy finds himself in a ton of relationships with women, the relationship he has with himself is the most compelling.
12. The show has various standalone episodes that delve into the intricate lives of characters like Ramy's mom, dad, sister, and uncle.
13. And the series also throws in a good amount of twists without adding any unnecessary drama to the plot.
