Mohammedia, Casablanca Jan 9, 2019 (Issuewire.com) - You all know the Rachid Show--the popular TV show broadcast every Friday on the Moroccan TV channel '2M.' The Rachid Show is hosted by Rachid Allali, and is centered on welcoming and highlighting various famous people from all walks of life. Everyone from well-known politicians to successful artists to sports stars to buzz-worthy entertainers has been featured on the Rachid Show to great success. Of course, Rachid Allali's excellent presenting style--which uniquely blends the perfect amount of comedic tones with his genuine sincerity--has greatly contributed to the show's popularity.
Most people will be familiar with Rachid Allali from his earlier work on the popular children's show, ALAM Farid (Unique World). However, the 30-year old entertainer has truly branched out since his early days as a children’s TV star. Before he created the Rachid Show in 2013, he worked on shows such as the comedic Caméra Noujoum and Taxi 36; as well as a more serious entertainment show, Nhar Maa Star (A Day with a Celebrity) which allowed him to explore the daily lives of real stars.
What makes the Rachid Show truly unique is that it's a format relatively unknown in Morocco: the "American-style" talk show. Most Moroccan entertainment programs are geared towards hidden cameras or spotlights, not a "talk show" where guests are welcomed and interviewed by a charming host. Yet it's this uniqueness--along with Rachid Allali's trademark humor, charm and wit--that helped put the Rachid Show on the map.
