Arab Labor (Hebrew: עבודה ערבית‎, Avoda Aravit; Arabic: شغل عَرَب‎, Shughl Arab) is an Israelisitcom television series, created by Sayed Kashua.

History[edit]

The series premiered on Keshet Channel 2 in Israel in 2007. The second season was broadcast in 2008 and the third season in 2012.[1] The series, whose title in colloquial Hebrew carries the implication of 'shoddy or second-rate work',[2] focuses on the family and work situations of Amjad, an Arab-Israeli journalist. Much of the comedy is derived from the paradox of Amjad's love-hate relationship with his Arab identity and his simultaneous wish to integrate comfortably into Israeli society.[3]

Poking fun at the cultural divide, Kashua's characters play on religious, cultural and political differences to depict the mixed society prevalent in Israel.[2]
