This entire Iran storyline is insane. Read about Iranian intelligence services. They don't pull anything even close to the shit Javadi is pulling in the States. They don't dare. They know the US senate is drooling for an excuse to choke and/or bomb Iran into the stone age.
Yes I know this is a fictional TV show, but…

Behrouz is a Persian name which pre-dates Islam. Has no religious connections. Common name for Iranians and some Afghans.

Am I the only person who read the "Chevy Account" as the "Cheney Account'?

Did anyone notice/mention the oranges. I thought this show was going to go the way of Godfather and kill someone off soon after the juggling Roger Sterling did.

Thanks for that. Really looking forward to Farhadi's upcoming film. Any ideas as to when we will see it in North America. This guy hasn't done a bad film so far. I highly recommend his movies before "A Separation" as well.

Granted I have to say Argo did a good job…

There are definitely different levels. Sometimes arranged marriages are basically parents setting up their kids for dates, with hopes that it can turn serious quick.

Go Shivrang. BROWN (actually quite white) POWER!!!

In the Dubai episode he eats at one of his restaurants  Basically thinks its wildly overrated and out of place.

I've never actually listened to his stand-up. Based off this interview, I think he would at least have interesting points.

We have the same word for milk, lion and sink tap in Persian - "Sheer" (Yes just like sheer khan)
Below is what I remember.

I don't like Cece and Schmidt. I WAS HOPING FOR A KAL PENN CAMEO DAMN IT>

Wow. This wasn't bad. MIND BLOWN.
