What 5 Of Egyptians’ Favorite TV Shows Say About Them

2- The Newer Release the Better, Except if it’s Friends

All the shows on this list are fairly recent, except for the widely loved classic comedy series Friends. Egyptians are well-known for their love for Friends, with Friends jokes and videos constantly circulating in Arabic-speaking Egyptian social media and the show being constantly on Netflix’s Top in Egypt list.

Despite the general favoring of newer and more cutting edge content, the 1994-2004 sitcom remains a comfort fan favorite.
