help Little America FAQ
Are the stories in Little America based on real people?
Yes. The Apple TV+ anthology adapts immigrant stories originally published by Epic Magazine. Episodes dramatize those accounts with actors, so details may be shaped for television even though each story has a real-world basis.
Do the same characters return in every Little America episode?
No. It is an anthology, with each episode focusing on a different immigrant, family, country of origin, and part of American life. That structure lets the series move between comedy, romance, family drama, and workplace stories.
Who created Little America for Apple TV+?
The series was developed by Lee Eisenberg, Kumail Nanjiani, and Emily V. Gordon. It premiered on Apple TV+ in 2020 and was produced for the streaming service rather than a broadcast network.
Did Little America receive a second season?
Yes. Apple TV+ released a second season in 2022 with another set of self-contained immigrant stories. Viewers can therefore watch most episodes independently without remembering a continuing plot.
