What happens

Here Come the Habibs is an Australian television comedy series produced by Jungle Entertainment. A sitcom featuring a Lebanese Australian family who win the lottery and move to the posh eastern suburbs of Sydney, the show premiered on the Nine Network in Australia on 9 February 2016. Despite arousing some controversy as to whether it portrayed racist or stereotyped characters, it was successful, and the series was renewed for a second season, airing from 5 June 2017. Nine program director Hamish Turner confirmed early in 2018 that the show would not be returning for a third season. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
