All the muslims in this forum should consider this a required watching (at the very least, the first episode or so).
While the jokes might get tiring after a while (not yet), so far its been hilarious.
Basically, its a Canadian sitcom (no laughtrack, of course) from a Muslim POV.

There is a risk that while I am finding it likable NOW, i might change my tunes, once the novelity fades away.
Because it is the kind of sitcom, where the imam is a charming, handsome young man (not a facial hair in sight!).

I've heard an interview with the show's Canadian muslim creator, who said she wanted this show to appeal to both muslims and non-muslims (obviously, especially the latter). She stressed that muslims should watch the sitcom and realise that its kinda OK to make fun of yourselves...

If it were all in the script, why make the film?

I have friends in Canada who say its a rage with the local Muslim community there. Will try to get my hands on it.
