John Doyle Globe and Mail The scope is modest, but the stories are large in a representative way, and sometimes funny and sometimes tragic. Feb 5, 2020 Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe And, thanks to the wise and humane writing, all of the episodes have the reach and breadth of full-length movies. Feb 3, 2020 Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald A gorgeously human series. Jan 27, 2020 Full Review Cristina Escobar HipLatina Reminds us of the beauty, differences, and commonalities between immigrant communities Jun 26, 2021 Full Review Akhil Arora Gadgets360 Inspired by true stories ..., the Apple TV+ series celebrates immigrants. Their culture, values, hopes, fears, dreams, perseverance, way of life, [and] search for an identity. Jul 3, 2020 Full Review Paula Vázquez Prieto La Nación (Argentina) The key is in the chosen tone, without being showy or excessively sentimental. There's no big declarations other than the entrance to those private worlds, always seen with the eyes of those who arrive to stay. [Full Review in Spanish] Feb 14, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Cameron C Was nice to watch every now and then Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/23 Full Review Jake Z Best show on Apple TV. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/11/22 Full Review steve n Excellent viewing. Cannot recommend this enough as its emotional and intelligent storytelling Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review amy k What a great way to open the doors of immigration to our country and those who have not been affected by it or it's people. Such great stories Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Earnest, preachy, not very entertaining. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Really nice collection of stories ... uneven, but there are some total gems. Heartwarming and life-affirming is not usually my lane, but I thoroughly enjoyed this overall and found it a nice change of pace from my usual fare of dark, brooding, and strange. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
