12 TV Shows And What They’d Look Like If They Were Set In Lebanon

All we’ve been doing is binge-watching some of our favourite shows on Netflix, and that got us thinking…what if our favourite shows turned into Lebanese versions?

1. Narcos

Lebanese version: The Captagon Chronicles

The resemblance is uncanny.

2. Rick and Morty

Lebanese version: Ramzi and Mohammad

Jeddo Ramzi is taking his nephew Mohammad on wild adventures, like waiting in line for gas, starting up the back-up generator, and trying to find a shawarma that’s worth less than 20,000LBP.

3. Modern Family

Lebanese version: 3ayle 3a fared mayle

Every Lebanese family should have their own reality TV show.

4. Keeping Up with the Kardashians

Lebanese version: Keeping Up with Baabda Palace

We’ve got a bunch of millionaires who are doused in drama, from a lazy bum that makes false promises to a delusional politician that thinks he’s going to rule the country – the Kardashians have got NOTHING on them.

5. End of the F***ing World

Lebanese version: Ahla sayfiye b lebnen

All that’s missing at this point is the four horsemen of the Apocalypse…oh, wait.

6. Bridgerton

Lebanese version: The Raoul Nehme Show

Teaching you all you need to know about politeness, etiquette, and PRESENTATION. Curtsey, smile, and OOLO SHUKRAN.

7. Money Heist

Lebanese version: Wen mosriyete?

Instead of people breaking in and stealing, it’s actually the banks holding our money. A fun plot twist, right?

8. How to Get Away with Murder

Lebanese version: Lebanese Politicians – A Documentary

This is kind of self-explanatory.

9. The Vampire Diaries

Lebanese version: A Day with my Lebanese Family

An extremely dramatic group of bloodsuckers, that’s what they are.

10. Hell’s Kitchen

Lebanese version: Cooking with your Lebanese Mom

If you’ve ever tried to cook with your mom and actually survived, we applaud you.

11. Stranger Things

Lebanese version: Not So Strange Things

Because we’ve really seen it ALL.

12. 13 Reasons Why

Lebanese version: 128 Reasons Why

For every seat in the parliament.
