It's a beautiful, endearing show, one that never loses sight of its fascinating characters.
January 16, 2020
Each episode of Little America is based on a true story of an immigrant to the United States, and retold in a 30-minute block of inspiring, unwavering humanity filled with hope, humor, and joy.
January 16, 2020
Little America abstains from trying to deliver sweet generalizations about American immigration. The jumbled pictures of immigration it presents are too difficult to pin down.

Perhaps most importantly, "Little America" avoids becoming patriotic propaganda not by disparaging the United States and its policies (which it rarely does), but by selectively emphasizing what America can offer at its best.

The funny, inspiring Little America tells immigrant stories that are pleasing without preaching...
January 10, 2020
Little America is a thoughtful show, made with evident care and consideration for doing justice to the heritages depicted.

For the most part, these vignettes are thoughtfully and pleasingly rendered. But there is, at the same time, something too uniform about them, a predetermined style of grace, not unlike the stories you hear people tell about themselves
January 16, 2020
The subjects vary, but almost without exception the stories are quirky yet resonant, emotional and relatable, with a sweet (or occasionally slightly bittersweet) payoff.
January 17, 2020
The individual stories are short and pithy. (One, set at a silent meditation retreat, feels like an extended setup for a punch line.) But collectively, the show's understanding of the immigrant experience is complex and nuanced.
January 14, 2020
For a series comprised of such seemingly disparate cultural and geographical elements, there's a sense throughout of care for each installment.
January 15, 2020
Little America is smart, nuanced television.
