History

Savri Maranan was produced by Keshet and Tedy. The show was created by Ruby Duenyas and Yaniv Polishook.[3][4] It originally aired on Channel 2, and currently airs on Channel 12.

In May 2014 the series was sold to TBS, the new American version was called Your Family or Mine.[5] It premiered on April 7, 2015.[6]

Plot

The series stars the family of Shay Rosen and Shani Hasson, who are of different ethnic groups. Shay's family is of Ashkenazi descent, while Shani's family is of Mizrahi descent.

The show follows the family as they visit their extended families for Shabbat dinner, where most of their escapades occur. Most of the show's comedy is derived from stereotypes of the two ethnic groups and the differences between them.

The show's name is derived from a traditional expression, part of the Kiddush.
