I laughed so hard as this reminded me of my upbringing in an immigrant family attempting to assimilate in a new country, but only making it worse as we could not shake off what the local folks called "strange culture behaviour" (Sicilians associated with those gangsters. So you could say that after the release of The Godfather, our lives was never the same as we had to live up to the hype). But this animation series has an edge as it deals with Muslims living in New York on the aftermath of 9/11. To top it all off, it is blessed with the comedic talents of Ramy Youssef, as writer and the voice of the young Rumi Hussein, trying so hard to just be a normal kid, but met with racial intolerance and other obstacles associated with the horrors of pubescence. A fresh perspective on growing up in a hostile environment with a zany family making it even more complicated for poor Rumi...
There's already a warning at the beginning saying this show isnt trying to represent all muslims so i dont know why people are mad. It's not that crazy that a muslim family in the west doesn't follow islam that well. A muslim person myself, i personally know a lot who don't.
This show reminds me of fresh off the boat tbh but a bit more political. None of the characters are too annoying and i actually like this art style. I really hope this show doesn't get canceled and they decide to make less shows about arabs. I loved ramy youssef in ramy and i think this was a decent shot in animation for him.

The meaning of the series is conveyed correctly. Muslims caused the tragedy of 9/11, Muslims hate democracy and the United States. Muslims are very committed to their religion, and it says that all non-Muslims in the world should be destroyed or converted to this religion of worshiping terrorism. They oppress their women, wrapping them in black rags, leaving only their eyes. Muslims still arrange sacrifices for the sake of religion every year. This is wild in our modern society. And these people come to us in the US and continue to hate us. Be careful. And never forget 9/11. Long live the USA!
#1 Happy Family USA is a funny and heartwarming cartoon about a Muslim American family dealing with life after 9/11. It's got a cool, old-school animation style and isn't afraid to tackle tough topics with humor. The characters feel real, and the voice acting is great. Sure, some jokes might not land for everyone, but overall, it's a fresh and interesting show that'll make you think and laugh.
The show also mixes emotional moments with satire, giving a unique and bold perspective on family and society
Hey, if you're feeling stressed, take a break! Watching something fun like this can help you chill out. Just relax, breathe, and enjoy the show. You deserve it!

The TV show Ramy is a wonderfully introspective meditation on modern life as a religious minority. But it's not really funny in a ha ha way, which is strange because creator Ramy Yousef is known as a stand-up comedian.
This might be closer to the mark for those looking for a combination of introspective and funny Ramy.
The show is based on Ramy's memories (also mentioned in his stand-up act) of growing up as a bullied Muslim in the wake of 9/11. It adds a serious satirical punch to the typical high school tropes without getting too preachy.
The show has a few gimmicks that feel a little scatter shot. His crush on his teacher fantasy or the occasional musical number blurs the line between fantasy and reality in a way that wouldn't be out of place for Family Guy or Solar Opposites.
On the upside, jokes that miss are rare and there are a few stand-out characters: Ramy's teacher is a wonderfully strange mix of spacey, tone-deaf, non-plussed and misguidedly enthusiastic. Ramy's grandmother has a dependably humorous voice and serves as a niqab and is a traditionalist contrast to his integration-minded father who's funny in the opposite direction.
With time, there's every reason to believe this show will grow on its first season foundation.
