About Abdullah Al-Ghamdi

Abdullah Al-Ghamdi ed Screen Rant in 2019. Mainly focusing on television news and features, he's always bemoaning that there's too much TV to catch up on with not enough time. You can him at: [email protected].

Industry Focus

His work has been cited on TV Insider and Buzzfeed. During his time with ScreenRant, he's written extensively about shows like Atlanta, Better Call Saul, Cobra Kai, Teen Wolf, The OC, and The Conners, among many others across both streaming and broadcast television, in addition to focusing on actors such as Dylan O'Brien and Tom Holland.

Favorite Media

His all-time favorites include Buffy the Vampire Slayer, especially those first five seasons, Breaking Bad, and Succession — though he wonders if it's too early to make that call. He's also, despite his best attempts, a lifelong fan of professional wrestling.
