Hulu's Ramy Returns September 30; Ellie Kemper and Zach Cherry to Host The Great American Baking Show

Ramy Youssef announced that season three of the Emmy(R)-nominated and Peabody Award-winning series Ramy, will return to Hulu on Friday, September 30 with all ten episodes. Golden Globe(R) Award-winning actor Ramy Youssef returns to Hulu for his critically-acclaimed performance in the Hulu Original comedy series Ramy. The series follows first-generation, Egyptian-American Ramy Hassan (Youssef) and his family as they navigate spirituality in their politically-divided New Jersey neighborhood. Ramy continues to bring a new perspective to the screen as it explores the challenges of what it's like to be caught between a religious community who believes life is a moral test, and a millennial generation that doubts an afterlife even exists. In the third season, his family is forced to confront having lived a life dedicated to worldly concerns - and in some cases, lies - while Ramy all but abandons his spiritual journey, instead dedicating himself to him and his uncle's diamond business. The series stars Youssef, Laith Nakli, Hiam Abbass, Amr Waked, May Calamawy, Dave Merheje, Mohammed Amer and Steve Way.
