TOD's serving up family drama and cooking mastery for Ramadan 2026, because apparently we all need both

TOD's Ramadan 2026 lineup brings three family dramas from Egypt and Syria plus two exclusive cooking shows. The mix spans dynasty tensions, social realism, and practical family cooking — all designed for post-iftar viewing patterns in the UAE.

TOD's serving up family drama and cooking mastery for Ramadan 2026, because apparently we all need both

TOD has unveiled its Ramadan 2026 series lineup, and it's a curated mix that actually makes sense for the holy month. According to TOD's announcement, the streaming platform is serving up three drama series and two exclusive cooking shows, all designed around themes of family, connection, and reflection. UAE viewers can stream the entire lineup on TOD during Ramadan 2026 — no hunting across multiple platforms required.

The drama series brings family stories to screens

The drama lineup spans Egypt and Syria, with each series tackling different aspects of family dynamics. Awlad El Raaey stars Majed Al Masry, Khaled El Sawy, Nermin El Feky, and Ahmed Eid in what sounds like a proper family dynasty drama — the kind where loyalty gets tested and buried tensions surface at the worst possible moments.

From Syria comes Saadet Almajnon, featuring Basem Yakhoor, Abed Fahed, Sulafa Memar, and Abdel Moneim Amairy. This one's promising high-intensity drama with three flawed characters caught in what TOD describes as 'a thrilling game fuelled by madness and greed.' It's positioning itself as the darker entry in the lineup.

The third drama, Ana W Hiya W Haya, takes a completely different approach. With Basel Khayat, Tag Heider, Tayseer Idris, and Nadine Khoury, it's grounded in social realism and everyday relationships — the kind of show that feels familiar rather than extreme.

TOD STUDIOS goes exclusive with cooking content

The platform's two cooking shows are both TOD STUDIOS exclusives, suggesting they're betting on lifestyle content alongside the trend of Arabic drama series. Kamel Al Dasam, with Eddie Diab, is positioning itself as the indulgent option — 'ignoring calories, cost, and convention' to focus purely on visual mastery.

SuperMom starring Suha Bakeer takes the opposite approach, blending nutritional science with practical family cooking. It's specifically designed for mothers dealing with the daily challenge of feeding families, which feels timely given how many households are reassessing their eating habits.

The Ramadan viewing strategy behind the lineup

TOD's curation isn't random — it's clearly designed around Ramadan evening viewing patterns. The mix of intense family dramas and lifestyle content creates options for different moods throughout the month. After a day of fasting, viewers might want the escapism of Saadet Almajnon's power games, or the comfort of Ana W Hiya W Haya's realistic relationships.

The cooking shows serve a different purpose entirely. Kamel Al Dasam offers pure visual indulgence for post-iftar viewing, while SuperMom provides practical solutions families can actually use. It's a smart balance between entertainment and utility.

When and where to watch in UAE

All five shows will be available on TOD during Ramadan 2026. The platform is accessible in the UAE, so no regional delays or availability issues to worry about. TOD hasn't specified exact release dates beyond 'during Ramadan' — presumably they'll drop throughout the month to maintain viewer engagement.

The lineup joins other Ramadan content initiatives, including Apple's Ramadan features and various tech companies launching Ramadan-specific content and tools for the holy month.
