The chase and the comedy heats up this summer on OSN with the launch of Egyptian dramedy series ‘No Activity’(Elwada’a Mustaqer). This OSN Original series, starring some of Egypt’s top comedic talent such as Khaled Mansour, Shadi Alfons, Sayed Ragab, Shaimaa Seif and Egyptian model and television celebrity Enjy Kiwan, and directed by Wael Farag, takes a satirical, light-hearted look at the misadventures of cops and criminals through Unfiltered Comedy. ‘No Activity’ will be available on OSN Streaming App on September 05, 2021.
Set against the backdrop of a major drug cartel bust, this OSN Original is the Arabic adaption of No Activity, originally an Australian production. It follows two private security guards on a stakeout waiting in their car for orders while a major cartel bust is underway – turns out, they will be spending more time together than they imagined. Meanwhile, two small-time drug dealers are waiting for a signal – and totally oblivious to developments around them.
Built on multiple pairings of conversations in different settings and situations, the simplicity of the series is what makes the six 30-minute episodes so enjoyable to watch. Viewers are on tenterhooks as the misadventures of the two private security guards unfold in unexpected ways, and as their comedic banter explores the twists and turns of life, work, love, family, and everything in between.
“OSN is delighted to bring innovation to entertainment in our region, and mark the launch of the comedy series ‘No Activity’. This series is built on such a simple concept – there is literally no activity – and the entire episode relies on the sharp and witty dialogue between the partner pairs to carry the show”, said Darine ElKhatib, Senior Vice President -Arabic Services & Original Production at OSN. “We are introducing a new style of comedy into your home – a style never seen before in Arabic productions. This series will change the way we experience content humour with its hilarious storyline and featuring much-loved Arab talent. We are confident that audiences across the region will truly enjoy this new OSN Original Series.”
Starting September 05, ‘No Activity’ will air everyday on OSN ‘Ya Hala Al Oula’ 20:35 KSA Time and will be available on the OSN Streaming App.
