Ramadan is a time of prayers, family, food, and…..? You guessed it – Choosing something to watch from the dozens and dozens of Ramadan series and shows that fill all the channels of TV screens across the nation. Did you know that Elcinema.com, the largest Arabic movie database, displayed a list of 26 Egyptian series this year, excluding the numerous other series and shows around the Arab world?

While switching channels back and forth to skip the ads or to entertain oneself during Iftar, Suhour, or basically any free time in between, one can get quite overwhelmed and confused.
