'Ramy' stars Youssef, Mahershala Ali perform Season 2 miracles
LA TimesQuestions about faith and purpose abound when Hulu’s Muslim American millennial comedy “Ramy” returns Friday with a new season and Mahershala Ali as a spiritual guide. His quest to be a better person guides him to a new Islamic Center, led by an inspiring Sufi imam: “He’s so fuego, dude,” says his white convert friend. Not radical, radical.” Sheikh Ali is played by the eloquent and utterly convincing Ali, who adds gravity to the series while playing into the humor spun from Ramy’s various misadventures. Television ‘Never Have I Ever’ is the L.A. immigrant tale I never thought I’d see on TV: My own Critic Lorraine Ali writes of seeing her immigrant upbringing in the San Fernando Valley reflected in the Mindy Kaling Netflix comedy ‘Never Have I Ever.’ The returning cast include Ramy’s endearing, sometimes clueless mother, Maysa, no-nonsense father, Farouk, sarcastic sister Dena and his bigoted, diamond-merchant Uncle Naseem.
