Mo Amer: Palestinian-American Sitcom Star Accidentally Too Relatable
Mo Amer's hit Netflix series Mo breaks sitcom clichĂ©s like a camel in rush hour. Featuring a 'fraught plot line about the American immigration system and the hope to return, at least for a visit, to his family's homeland,' Amer becomes the unlikely spokesperson for Palestinian-Americans â whether he signed up for it or not. âWe talk to Mo Amer what itâs like to make a show so centered on the real facts of his own life,â bringing eye-rolls, empathy, and rare laughs to streaming screens everywhere.
