Season 1 • Episode 30
LatestThe story of Sayed (Fahmy), who comes from a poor background and marries a well-off woman, and gets in trouble when a family member cons a sum of money and involves him unwillingly.
Acting
Ahmad Fahmy's perfect everyman desperation.
Writing
Tight farce construction, one lie breeds ten.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
El Shahat (الشحات) literally means 'the beggar' — a loaded class marker in Egyptian society that the show deliberately plays with.
Ahmed El Gendy directed this between seasons of his hit 'El-Limby' series, bringing that same rapid-fire comedic timing to a more domestic setting.
