Even though it was highly welcomed and recorder high viewing rates during its screening in Ramadan; the Saudi comedy "Kalam Nass" might get sued by five Private Saudi hospitals because of its last episode.Written by Alaa Hamza, the series discusses many different issues taking place in the Saudi community and displayed in light comedy. It is directed by Omar Al Deeny in his first directorial experience and considered it successful as it was made by a Saudi discussing issues concerning Saudis only so it was appreciated as it was sincere and honest.The last episode of the series targeted the health sector in Saudi and specifically in Private hospitals where it showed their only concern in making profit regardless of the level of health care they provide. It showed the character of a corrupted health inspector who accepts bribe from a non-Saudi hospital manager to discard life threatening issues. At the end of episode we discover that the inspector was working under cover for the federal office to arrest the corrupted manager and his assistant.The five Saudi hospitals felt this episode damages their image and is demeaning for their medical profession in the Kingdom so they are studying taking the series makers to court. Actor Hassan Al Essairy thanked his audience on his webpage and demanded them to send him ideas and suggestions and added that the interaction with the fans on his Facebook page positively affected the series.
