Today was a very good day for Ramy, both the actor and the show.
Today was a good day for Ramy Youssef.
Ramy, his excellent Hulu comedy that we named one of our favorite shows of the year so far, was renewed for a much-deserved third season. I would have been disappointed if the show didn’t come back, considering where it ended (sadness); also, I need to know how much of that birthday sheet cake Uncle Naseem finished. This is important.
Youssef was also nominated for a TCA (Television Critics Association) Award for Individual Achievement in Comedy, along with Pamela Adlon for Better Things, Christina Applegate for Dead to Me, Elle Fanning for The Great (she should win, IMO), Catherine O’Hara for Schitt’s Creek, and Issa Rae for Insecure. This year’s TCAs, which are voted on by more than 200 television critics and journalists from the United States and Canada, also included nominations for Watchmen, Better Call Saul, Normal People, Mrs. America, Never Have I Ever, The Mandalorian, Euphoria, Succession, and What We Do in the Shadows. Basically all of your favorite programs, and also The Morning Show.
