SHOWTIME(R) TO DEBUT DOCU-COMEDY SERIES "JUST ANOTHER IMMIGRANT"

Half-Hour Non-Fiction Program Starring Comedian Romesh Ranganathan To Premiere June 8 On SHOWTIME

LOS ANGELES - April 30, 2018 - SHOWTIME has announced the premiere of a new docu-comedy unscripted series centered around popular UK comedian Romesh Ranganathan, JUST ANOTHER IMMIGRANT. The 10-episode, half-hour series will air two episodes on Fridays beginning June 8 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

JUST ANOTHER IMMIGRANT is a 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, 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.

Ranganathan debuted on the British comedy circuit in 2010 and was nominated for Best Newcomer at the 2013 Edinburgh Comedy Awards. Since then Ranganathan has appeared on multiple television shows and is well-known for his performances on Live At The Apollo, Mock The Week, The Royal Variety Show and A League Of Their Own, among others. Ranganathan's hit series Asian Provocateur followed his escapades after being sent by his mother to his parents' homeland of Sri Lanka in an attempt to connect him with his roots. The series earned the comedian his first BAFTA nomination. In 2016 Ranganathan embarked on his solo tour 'Irrational' and was awarded Ents24 Hardest Working Comedian of the Year.

JUST ANOTHER IMMIGRANT is a co-production of Rangabee Productions, JSA Olive Oil and Renegade. Eric Pankowski (Carpool Karaoke), Benjamin Green (Asian Provocateur) and Ranganathan are executive producers, with Green directing. David Garfinkle and Jay Renfroe (Naked and Afraid) also serve as executive producers.
