Well crafted characters & comedy collide in "#1 Happy Family USA" on Prime Video.
We peak inside the series with creatives Pam Brady & Mona Chalabi.
Meet the Hussein family! A Muslim family living and trying to navigate life in New Jersey post 9/11. Created by Ramy Youssef, #1 Happy Family USA is a comedic, adult-animated series that follows the maniacally upbeat Husseins - the most patriotic, most peaceful, and most definitely-not-suspicious Muslim family in post-9/11 "Amreeka."
Ramy Youssef and Pam Brady serve as co-showrunners for this hilariously cultured and fresh new series. Executive producers alongside Youssef and Brady include Mona Chalabi, Andy Campagna, Josh Rabinowitz, and A24.
The talented Pam Brady and Mona Chalabi took Scenes In Color inside the writers room to discuss their creative process and the unique design of these animated characters!
Viewers will love the ways in which this series uses satire and comedy to engage while also allowing the characters and their storylines to be relatable and thoroughly entertaining. This multigenerational family is funny, interesting, and well crafted.
The series stars the ensemble cast of Ramy Youssef, Alia Shawkat, Mandy Moore, Timothy Olyphant, Kieran Culkin, Salma Hindy, Randa Jarrar, Chris Redd, Akaash Singh, Paul Elia and Whitmer Thoma.
Clever and multilayered, these characters are also very spirited, intriguing, and fun. Most of all, they are a loving family trying to stay true to their values while also finding humor in some of the most unpredictable and unrelenting situations faced while living on the East Coast in America after September 11, 2001.
