Plot Synopsis

COMING FROM AMERICA is a one-hour reality series that follows our African American families, who pack up all their belongings and risk everything to move to the new land of opportunity: Africa. Enticed by their ancestral roots, these families travel 5000 miles to find love, jobs, and a better life. First, they'll have to survive the inevitable culture shock -- but if they can endure the first 60 days, their lives could be changed forever. All have different goals, but each hopes to fulfill their dreams of a better life in the motherland. Some are prepared, but others are in for some often-hilarious surprises. COMING FROM AMERICA premiered on Thursday, September 5, 2024 on Max, which released the first episode. A new installment dropped weekly through October 10.
