Hello Country

2024–2025 · 2 seasons

A lively, joke-dense sitcom that turns bureaucratic chaos into a sharp, irreverent mirror of national dysfunction.

Overview
Inside a fictional Lebanese police station, a ragtag group of security officers muddle through their shifts — and every citizen who walks through the door brings fresh chaos. A sharp, funny Lebanese sitcom that uses the daily absurdities of state bureaucracy to poke fun at everything wrong with the country — and somehow makes it all hilarious. So daring it got complaints from actual police and religious institutions. One of the boldest Arab comedies of recent years.
