Report: Ramy Youssef’s Adult Animated Comedy Sets Stellar Cast Ahead Of Two Season Order

The Prime Video series that Amazon ordered last year with Ramy Youssef and Pam Brady at the helms officially has its cast set and it’s pretty legit. Entitled #1 Happy Family USA, the series the experiences of a Muslim-American family that must learn how to code-switch as they navigate the early 2000s: a time of fear, war, and the rapid expansion of the boy-band industrial complex.

Ramy and Pam produce the series alongside Mona Chalabi and Josh Rabinowitz with A24 and Amazon Studios producing.
