HBO will premiere the comedy special “Ramy Youssef: More Feelings” on March 23.
Per the official description, the trailer sees the actor, writer and comedian “offer his unique reflections on our divided world, the unexpected perils of charitable giving and more,” hitting on topics including “the 2024 presidential election, the importance of prayer, and a childhood book report that changed the course of his life.”
“I’m done apologizing. I’m done saying that we’re peaceful,” Youssef says in the trailer. “For 20 years, we’ve had to prove to people that we’re safe. Every time you turn on CNN, there’s some Arab dude talking about how ‘Islam’ means ‘peace.’ You know that guy? But he’s always shouting it. He’s always like, ‘We come in peace!'”
“You’re like, ‘Bro, that’s the slogan for aliens,'” he continues. “‘That’s what aliens say before they take over the fucking planet,...

The Directors Guild of America held its 76th annual awards tonight at the Beverly Hilton. Christopher Nolan took home the night’s top honor for Oppenheimer. Celine Song took home the prize for first-time theatrical film for Past Lives.
The DGA is a strong predictor of Oscar success historically, missing the eventual Best Director winner only eight times in 75 years. The group handed its top trophy to the Daniels for Everything Everywhere All at Once last year, and Daniel Kwan & Daniel Scheinert went on to snag the Academy Award a month later, becoming only the third duo to claim that prized statuette.

Compliments to the chef!
Hulu has revealed premiere viewership details for The Bear Season 2, and the series has cooked up some solid numbers for the streaming service.
FX revealed Tuesday that the Jeremy Allen White drama surged 70% in total hours streamed over the first season after the first four days of viewing.
Additionally, the Season 2 bow was the most-watched premiere of any FX series on Hulu.
Unfortunately, FX and Hulu don't typically reveal raw viewership statistics, but the way the numbers are spinned certainly sounds impressive.
There were many concerns that the show would be wasted by premiering all episodes at once, but it seems the show is off to a great start.
Far too often, binge-release shows dominate the competition for about a week, but there's a good chance The Bear will showcase some staying power.

FX has been announcing new information for the slate of their benchmark TV shows today. Earlier, news broke that Archer will return for season 14, which will also be its final season. It joins the sixteenth season of their legacy hit, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Now, the trailer for season two of their award-winning show The Bear makes its debut, and according to The Hollywood Reporter, the new season may have a newer focus, but it will retain the intensity that the show is known for.
The official synopsis for the second season of FX’s The Bear reads,
Season two follows Carmy, Sydney, and Richie as they work to transform their grimy sandwich joint into a next-level spot. As they strip the restaurant down to its bones, the crew undertakes transformational journeys of their own, each forced to confront the past and reckon with who they want to be in the future.

The trailer for season two of The Bear looks like it will trade the white-knuckle intensity of running a restaurant kitchen for … the white-knuckle intensity of trying to open a restaurant on a limited timetable.
The FX-produced Hulu series, whose second season premieres June 22, will pick up where the first one ended, following Carmy’s (Jeremy Allen White) decision to close his family’s Italian beef joint in Chicago and open a new restaurant. He, Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) and Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) set a six-month timetable to open the doors of the new establishment, which means everything from menu planning to dealing with city permitting bureaucracy.
Here’s the official description: “Season two follows Carmy, Sydney and Richie as they work to transform their grimy sandwich joint into a next-level spot. As they strip the restaurant down to its bones, the crew undertakes transformational journeys of their own, each...

The Bear Season 2 touches down on FX on Hulu this summer, and after months of short teases, we finally have our full-length trailer.
The critically acclaimed original series follows Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri) and Richard "Richie" Jerimovich (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they work to transform their grimy sandwich joint into a next-level spot.
As they strip the restaurant down to its bones, the crew undertakes transformational journeys of their own, each forced to confront the past and reckon with who they want to be in the future.

The long-awaited Season 3 premiere of Hulu‘s Ramy has been set for September 30.
Ramy Youssef returns for 10 episodes of the acclaimed series which follows first-generation, Egyptian-American Ramy Hassan (Youssef) and his family as they navigate spirituality in their politically-divided New Jersey neighborhood.
Ramy continues to bring a new perspective to the screen as it explores the challenges of what it’s like to be caught between a religious community who believes life is a moral test, and a millennial generation that doubts an afterlife even exists.
In Season 3, his family is forced to confront having lived a life dedicated to worldly concerns — and in some cases, lies — while Ramy all but abandons his spiritual journey, instead dedicating himself to him and his uncle’s diamond business.
The series also stars Laith Nakli, Hiam Abbass, Amr Waked, May Calamawy, Dave Merheje, Mohammed Amer, and Steve Way.
Ramy is written, directed, executive-produced,...
Ramy Youssef returns for 10 episodes of the acclaimed series which follows first-generation, Egyptian-American Ramy Hassan (Youssef) and his family as they navigate spirituality in their politically-divided New Jersey neighborhood.
Ramy continues to bring a new perspective to the screen as it explores the challenges of what it’s like to be caught between a religious community who believes life is a moral test, and a millennial generation that doubts an afterlife even exists.
In Season 3, his family is forced to confront having lived a life dedicated to worldly concerns — and in some cases, lies — while Ramy all but abandons his spiritual journey, instead dedicating himself to him and his uncle’s diamond business.

The Directors Guild of America is out with its DGA Awards nominations for TV series after a false start earlier this week. The shows whose helmers will be vying for the hardware are Game of Thrones, Watchmen, Succession, Barry, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and Veep.
See the full list of noms revealed today below.
The DGA had been slated to announce all of its TV nominations earlier this week, but instead it revealed only the TV Movie/Limited Series, Documentary, Variety/Talk/News/Sports and Commercials nominees on Monday. It blamed the delay on “a re-vote related to a newly implemented electronic entry submissions process.”
The guild had announced last week that Jill Soloway — a previous DGA Award winner for her work on Transparent — was left off the ballot because of an internal DGA error. “We regret to inform you that the following entry was inadvertently omitted from the Comedy Series ballot: #165a.
