  • Comedian Ramy Youssef is the star and co-creator of the popular series "Ramy" on Hulu. It follows a young, practicing Muslim-American as he navigates everything from family pressures to dating. The New York Times called it "a quietly revolutionary comedy." His first HBO comedy special is called "Ramy Youssef: Feelings." Youssef joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss how he dealt with the pressure of being first.

    Ramy said it best. The title is "Ramy". Too bad liberal media tries to make everything about race/religion be it labeling a first "Black" so and so or in this case first "Muslim-American..." or whatever.
    The thing is we minorities - I was born in Muslim family from SE Asia- don't really like to be reminded that we are minority immigrants at every single turn of the event. And sometimes liberals are egregiously guilty of it more so.
    He is a SUPERB comedian. Period.

    The problems he talked about are real, but saying that THIS is what muslims do is not okay! If you want to talk about a FAITH you have to respect it and show people what Islam really is like , I am okay with him making mistakes in the beginning and then finding the right way even if it wasn’t perfect, but all he did was normalize sin in this show and that is not how us muslims want to enter the entertainment industry. It is sad because this is not coming out of a place of hate at all! I just want what is best for him and for our nation to get represented well!
