Citizen Khan

As a Muslim and a Middle Eastern, I found this series to be absolutely hilarious and hits on common stereotypical behavior of Pakistanis and Muslims in general. I did not find it to be offensive at all. I love all the characters in the show. Basically the only negative thing about this show is that there are only a few episodes per season. They seriously should produce more episodes and I think it will be very popular amongst Muslim and Middle Eastern audiences. I don't see a problem why this show would not be popular amongst non-Muslim audiences. Not only does it introduce the people in a comic and light manner, but it is the first show I have ever seen that humanizes Muslims.

Some put this down as unfunny and even racist. I don't i think its great and shows that people of Islam can have fun as much as anyone else.

You do have to look for the jokes sometimes and the humour can be questionable but it is a lot of fun and thank you BBC that there will be a second series.

This is the sort of comedy that needs to be made,this and Mrs Browns Boys have shown people in a new friendly light and broken down barriers where as they show called Cuckoo doesn't deserve the category "comedy" Those who are offended - get a life and stop being offended on someone else's behalf.

I think Adil Ray has something - you have to like him. Whether this is the vehicle for his talents is another question. It has an incredibly dated feel and seems like a leftover from the 1970's. Chris Marshall is very out of place in this, mind you he was in the dreadful My Family so even this must be a step up for him. How anyone can get themselves in a lather about a poorly conceived sitcom as many Muslims have is beyond me. It really is not worth it. Maybe the whole thing is going to get better when it has settled in but I doubt it. There are several things it has going for it - Adil Ray for one and the premise is good even if the execution needs work. Watch this space.

It's just a comedy! Don't take it so seriously! Chillax!

Have really enjoyed watching all 5 episodes till now. It's not perfect and yes, it's very stereotypical, aged, and poorly acted. Yes, the Somalian guy's accent is travelling from West Africa eastwards in each episode. Yes the canned laughter is OTT.

But it's a comedy nevertheless and one of very few south Asian comedies to be broadcast. I don't think its depiction of the religion is that bad and actually quite inclusive. The jokes shouldn't be taken personally - I certainly don't feel humiliated or offended because it's just a comedy... and it's so true... :)

For those who find it 'unfunny' or 'didn't laugh' well, go watch something else. Sheesh!

The type of comedy we have been missing in the last couple of years. Very fun silly and a good piece of Monday night comedy. It's not everyone's cup of tea but me and my family love it. The latest thing i heard was that all the actors are Hindus and that the show was made by Zionists, brilliant, if you don't like it don't watch it! stop making silly stories up. Pathetic. 10/10 i look forward to the show every week. I have spoken to several Muslims who have been slating the show on facebook, it was then that i realised that they hadn't even watched the show but was told how offensive it was. People are being sheep. Because of this reaction it is unlikely that we see any sort of Muslim show for a long time. Congrats
