Plot Synopsis

JUST ANOTHER IMMIGRANT is a 10-episode, half-hour comedic docuseries that follows Romesh Ranganathan, one of the most popular stand-ups in the UK, as he uproots his entire family -- his supportive wife Leesa; their three kids Alex, Theo & Charlie; his Sri Lankan mother Shanthi; and his eccentric Uncle Ragu -- 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. The series opens as Romesh arrives in Los Angeles, beginning the daunting task of selling out the 6,000-seat Greek Theater while having no connections. Then, Romesh's Uncle Ragu arrives from Australia and is determined to help Rom make it in Hollywood; Uncle Rags has a plan for Romesh that causes a scene captured on national television.
