Review: New TV is starting to dwindle, so watch these 3 recent shows that are among summer’s best
, as the title character, a 30-year-old Muslim American in New Jersey, tries to get himself right with Allah and reject suchtemptations as Internet porn. Things change drastically when Ramy joins a small mosque headed by Sheikh Ali Malik , whose calm, cool demeanor helps Ramy see Islam’s core values rather than its restrictions.
This feels like the right path, for both the character and for the show. Through Ramy’s increased devotion, viewers get a broader understanding of Islam’s tenets of peace and self-awareness, in addition to Youssef’s brand of humor, which still illuminates the difficulties of being Muslim in American culture.
The show is often better when it branches out to parallel stories about Ramy’s friends and family. Hiam Abbass continues to give a moving performance as Ramy’s mother, Maysa — a Lyft-driving immigrant still trying to adapt to the country she’s lived in for decades. Meanwhile, Ramy’s father, Farouk , loses faith in the American Dream after being laid off. Through it all, the show exhibits a nimble command of mood, meaning, personal integrity and the quirks of family life.
James Badge Dale co-stars as Ray Abruzzo, a state police sergeant who was relying on information from the murder victim to help him expose a drug ring. While Jackie is preoccupied with staying sober and keeping her job, she is inexorably drawn into the murder investigation and the larger plot. “Hightown” captures a seamier side of life in this vacation paradise.
