" Kashua has managed to barge through cultural barriers and bring an Arab point of view into the mainstream of Israeli entertainment."

"…a groundbreaking TV Show that finds humor in sharing a homeland."
-The Chicago Tribune

ARAB LABOR, the popular and acclaimed series, is back with a third and highly enjoyable season! We left Amjad and his family making constant efforts to fit in, after rerelocating from their village to Jerusalem. In the first episode of the third season, Amjad finds out, to his great chagrin, that value of the apartments in his building has gone done due to the fact that there is an Arab "intruder" among the tenants. He signs up for a TV Reality show, "The Big Brother", attempting to become a celebrity and consequently raise the value of his building. Will this fact influence potential buyers, and will they be willing to pay more? Stay tuned...

"ARAB LABOR is no longer a dismissable anecdote, a "pet Arab" created to sooth our conscience... It is a phenomenon! With three seasons on the strongest broadcast channel, and a fourth upcoming season, with rave reviews and a supportive audience, ARAB LABOR is an integral part of Israeli TV comedy, and this cannot be taken for granted".
