Egyptian TV host Hala Sarhan has come under fire by the head of the local Egyptian TV channel for giving her new TV show the exact same title as one of their shows.

The controversial host’s show is called “Aan Al Awaa” (The Time Has Come) and airs on “Al Mihwar” TV.

Hala has been threatened with legal action if she were to keep the name. The head has threatened to take her to court and file an official complaint against her, according to Sayidaty.net.

Hala’s showmakers are seriously considering a name-change following the threats.

This show marks Hala’s return to the scene after a long absence. We’re sure that’s not how she pictured her comeback, don’t you think?
