Ramadan Kareem! The giving month is approaching, and while the generosity of the month spans many aspects, it also means more Netflix time believe it or not. According to Netflix MENA, during Ramadan nights, streaming peaks between 2.00am-5.00am – in other words, an extra three hours of viewing time. This means an obvious demand for more shows worth watching. Here are the Arabic shows you want to watch out for this season on Netflix, along with more options for non-Arabic upcoming shows, if you’re not into that kind of thing.
