Mo deftly adapts to his new world, but it&#8217;s tough to get ahead when you&#8217;re tied up in red tape. The heartfelt comedy is created and executive produced by comedians Mo Amer (<em>The Vagabond, Black Adam<\/em>) and Ramy Youssef (<em>Ramy, Mr. Robot<\/em>). Season 1 is executive produced by A24, Harris Danow (<em>Dead to Me, Daisy Jones &amp; The Six<\/em>), Luvh Rakhe (<em>Dave, It&#8217;s Always Sunny in Philadelphia<\/em>), and series director Solvan &#8220;Slick&#8221; Naim (<em>It&#8217;s Bruno!, Snowfall<\/em>).<\/p><div id=\"morty-3484976275\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>From Co-Creator, Executive Producer, and Star Mo Amer: &#8220;I&#8217;m thankful to continue to tell a universal story of struggle that relates to so many refugees and millions of under-represented humans trying to be seen around the globe and to be able to bring the people who loved and rooted for Mo Najjar along for the ride as we close this chapter of his story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Mo<\/em> debuted August 24, 2022 and was met with critical acclaim.
