Mo

I loved it from the start. Loved the character, loved the lead, loved the story and the script. It was so bittersweet and painful to watch this man getting knocked down, but getting right back up and starting over - and over... My mother was a first-generation American, and her mother went through SO much to give her children a good chance at life. I was cheering for Mo every episode. His strength of character was uplifting to see. So many times, disadvantaged people are not 'seen' by the people around them. This show is hella entertaining, but there's a big truth under the humor - the struggle too many people face every day, just to have the necessities the rest of us take for granted.

Watch this show! You'll be glad you did.

Interesting view into something culturally different than I am used to. Great pacing, cinematography, and love the H town music influence. Dj screw, and the crews songs are placed nicely throughout the show.

Engaging plot with some pretty funny situations/scenes. Lot's of good actors and especially hats off to Mo.

Went into this with no knowledge of the plot and bo expectations. Really delivered on an enjoyable experience. Unique and flavorful. Highly recommend and hope it is renewed for a second season. Pretty real feeling situations. Believable.

Unique shows are hard to find and I wish Mo and his team all the best.

Endearing multifaceted telling of a refugee immigrant family in the US wrapped in a barrel of unexpected laughs

A fun brilliantly-directed expression the ordinariness and complexity of the experience of a refugee/immigrant/Muslim/Palestinian/Arab asylum seeker in the US, who also happens to be thoroughly US American. Told with a touch a humour, lots of nuance, and beautiful insights. A rewatching will reveal tonnes of stuff that can be easily missed. And there are layers that you might only get if you're Palestinian, or Arab, or Muslim, or Brown etc.

While I thought the presentation of a Palestinian, Muslim, Asylum-seeker... Might be difficult to present; the show presents the characters with a charm, honesty and emotional depth. All the cultural peculiarities and challenges along with the contradictions, but not dealt with in a condescending way. The protagonist's own hang-ups allow us to be frustrated but also understand those frustrations.

No perfect people. Just relatable characters who bring you into their circle and who you genuinely empathise with and relate to and want to see succeed in their interpersonal relationships and their life goals.

Entertaining, funny and real. I have seen Moe's standup show and I enjoyed it. I didn't really know what to expect when I started the series, without even noticing I was already in. It's very short! If there's one thing i'd complain about, I would've loved to see more. For some reason most stand-up comedians when they do fiction it's really bad. Not many comedians can do both stand up and fiction, Mo is officially now one of those few. Also this series gives a voice to a group of people that the world never really was able to empathize with since your voice is hardly heard, and to have that be entertaining in the same time I would call a great success.

I really enjoyed Season 2 of "Mo" and watched it all in one go. The series is based on a true story, which makes it even more impactful. Mo Amer's acting is outstanding-he brings both humor and deep emotion to his role. The show feels real, heartfelt, and full of genuine moments that stay with you. The balance between comedy and drama is perfect, making it easy to connect with the characters and their struggles. Every episode kept me engaged, and the storytelling felt raw and honest. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a series that offers both laughs and meaningful insights while shedding light on real-life experiences.
