The sixth season premiered in Ramadan 2014 on MBC HD Channels and received mixed reviews. ==Overview== ''Bab Al-Hara'' aired during Ramadan and forms part of the emerging modern tradition of the Ramadan soap opera. The Arab satellite channels broadcast special programming every night during Ramadan to try to capture audiences from among the families who have gathered together to eat and break the fast.〔 Directed by Bassam al-Mulla and broadcast on MBC,〔 the first installment of the series, comprising 31 episodes, aired during Ramadan in 2006 and enjoyed broad viewership and a positive reception. The second installment, entitled ''Bab al-Hara 2'', was highly anticipated, receiving even wider acclaim in Ramadan of 2007. A third installment to be aired in Ramadan of 2008 was officially announced on al-Arabiya channel in October 2007, and will focus on the post-marriage lives of the children of Abu Issam, the local doctor and barber. Like many of the most recent popular Arabic series, ''Bab al-Hara'' is a Syrian production, financed by the Gulf-state satellite channels. It reflects a new trend representing the shift of Arabic media dominance away from the Egyptians to the Syrians. Two more ''Bab al-Hara'' seasons were aired in Ramadan 2009 and 2010, ''Bab al-Hara 4'' and ''5'' were produced directly after each other just like ''Bab al-Hara 1 and 2''. This was announced just after airing 10 episodes of ''Bab al-Hara 3'' after realizing that ''Bab al-Hara 3'' was able to keep its audience and not decline in ratings. It is obvious that MBC will be channel to broadcast the series during the next 2 years, although this year they did give the rights to Libya Al-Shababiya (Libya Youth Channel) to broadcast ''Bab al-Hara 3'' at the same time of airing it in MBC. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bab Al-Hara」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
