5 Minutes read

The more and more I watch Tyrant, the more engrossed I become in most of the character storylines. To me, the Al-Fayeed storylines —the ones directly involving the members of the ruling Al-Fayeed dynasty—are the show’s brightest, most cohesive parts. However, one Al-Fayeed I have to leave out is is Bassam; even though his part in the…

If you’ve read my Tyrant recaps for Entertainment Weekly, then you’ll know that I’ve got a very intense love-hate relationship with this show. Particularly with…all of it. But especially with Bassam.
