🎤 Mohamed Ramadan Defends “Madfa Ramadan” and Rejects Comparisons With Ramez Galal
Actor and singer Mohamed Ramadan addressed the comparisons circulating on social media between his Ramadan program “Madfa Ramadan” and “Ramez Elon Misr,” hosted by fellow entertainer Ramez Galal.
Ramadan explained through his official Instagram account that he was happy with the positive audience reaction to “Madfa Ramadan,” but he also wanted to defend his friend and colleague Ramez Galal.
According to Ramadan, the comparison between the two programs is unfair because the shows belong to completely different entertainment formats.
📺 Both Shows Air During Iftar
Mohamed Ramadan explained that the main reason viewers began comparing the two programs was their shared Ramadan broadcast timing, as both are presented to audiences around the iftar period.
He wrote: “Thank God, I’m happy with the success of #Madfa_Ramadan and your beautiful reactions, but allow me to defend my friend and colleague Ramez Galal because the comparison happening with his program is very unfair.”
Ramadan added that the comparison emerged simply because both shows were broadcast at the same time during iftar.
However, he stressed that a similar broadcast schedule does not mean that the two productions are similar in concept or content.
🎭 “The Two Programs Are Completely Different”
Ramadan went on to explain that the main difference lies in the nature of the two shows.
He described the comparison as incorrect because the programs have completely different formats, saying that “Madfa Ramadan” is designed to bring joy to viewers, while “Ramez Elon Misr” is built around comedy and prank-based entertainment.
Ramadan summarized the difference by saying that his program “makes people happy,” while Ramez’s program “makes people laugh.”
His comments were intended to explain that different forms of entertainment can coexist during the same Ramadan season without needing to be treated as direct equivalents.
❤️ Both Formats Matter to Arab Audiences
Mohamed Ramadan also stressed that the difference between the two programs does not make one type of entertainment less important than the other.
He said: “Both types are very important to the Arab viewer, whether Egyptian, Gulf, Levantine or Maghrebi.”
The statement reflects his view that Ramadan audiences can enjoy different styles of entertainment depending on what they are looking for.
Rather than framing the two shows as direct competitors, Ramadan presented them as two different forms of television entertainment serving different audience interests.
🤝 “I Love Ramez”.. Ramadan Sends a Warm Message
Alongside his explanation of the difference between the programs, Mohamed Ramadan expressed his appreciation for Ramez Galal personally.
He said: “I love Ramez because he made us laugh a lot, and he will make us laugh a lot more. I love his programs, and I appeared with him twice before.”
The comment highlighted the friendly relationship Ramadan has with Galal and explained why he felt the need to respond to the comparisons and defend his colleague.
His previous appearances on Ramez’s shows also formed part of his personal connection to the television host.
✨ Different Formats Can Attract the Same Ramadan Audience
Ramadan’s remarks come amid a busy television landscape during the holy month, when a wide range of programs compete for viewers’ attention.
From his perspective, the success of “Madfa Ramadan” does not depend on being compared directly with “Ramez Elon Misr,” because the two shows rely on different ideas and styles of entertainment.
His comments also raise a broader question about how Ramadan programs are compared on social media and whether sharing the same broadcast period is enough to place different formats in direct competition.
Ultimately, Mohamed Ramadan emphasized that both programs have their own identity, while expressing his support for Ramez Galal and his appreciation for the entertainment he has offered audiences over the years.
