You know those shows you suddenly find yourself missing, ones you'd happily rewatch your favorite episodes from, even years after they first aired? Entertainment and prank shows, in particular, have a way of sticking with us. They built a lasting connection with their audiences, the kind that proves just how successful they were. The jokes, the unforgettable moments, the iconic one-liners you still catch yourself quoting without even realizing it. Here are four TV gems we wish would be back on our screens again with new seasons.
Darak
This show was a gateway to unforgettable moments with some of the most beloved actors, with conversations you could never get tired of watching. From Adel Imam's iconic episode to Ahmed Helmy's and everything in between, Ashraf Abdel Baky delivered what felt like a reality show with his own creative twist.
Man Sayarbah El Bonbon
You probably wished you were one of the contestants on his show when you were a kid, right? Ahmed Helmy truly left a lasting mark on children's television with this unforgettable classic. It set the bar incredibly high, with a level of spontaneous, unscripted humor that still feels unmatched.
El Sha2a
Hend Sabry's appearance as a host was undoubtedly well-received. She blended charisma with effortlessly genuine conversations, managing to keep viewers engaged even without sharing the same frame as her guests. The unique concept allowed for deeper, more personal glimpses into the lives of the guests, with sides we hadn't seen before and instantly loved.
Helhom Benhom
This prank show still feels iconic in every way. A host who managed to bring out the worst—yet funniest—reactions from his guests was a twist no one saw coming, especially compared to the typical Egyptian prank show format at the time. It's hard not to wonder what it would look like if it were renewed today, eighteen years later.
