Just Another Immigrant is an American television docuseries starring Romesh Ranganathan that premiered on June 8, 2018 on Showtime. The series is executive produced by Eric Pankowski, Benjamin Green, David Garfinkle, Jay Renfroe, and Ranganathan.
Just Another Immigrant follows Ranganathan as he uproots his entire family – his supportive wife, their three kids, his Sri Lankan mother and his eccentric uncle – and immigrates to the U.S. Displaced in Los Angeles, Ranganathan attempts to find success and happiness, while rebuilding a life from scratch. In addition to his efforts to adapt, he has committed himself to booking a U.S. gig – the 6,000-seat Greek Theater – with only three months to sell it out. The series chronicles the true-life adventures of this modern immigrant family and the obstacles of making it in today’s America.[1]
