Overview
Few Arab comedy series have left a mark quite like Sah El Nom. Written by the brilliant Nihad Qalei, who stars alongside the irreplaceable Duraid Lahham, the show gave the Arab world two of its most iconic characters — the lovable, street-smart Ghawar Tawasha and the memorable Houssni Al Bourzan. Warm, witty, and deeply rooted in Damascene folklore, it's the kind of show that never really gets old.
