Created by Maria Ferrari and David Goetsch, the drama showcases the friendship between Riley, a marine warfare professional who is striving to re-accommodate himself to civilian life as he happens to be in Ohio, and Awalmir, an Afghan interpreter who is looking forward to a new beginning in America.

Produced under Chuck Lorre Productions and Warner Bros. Television Studios, the series did succeed in hitting some of the right chords and bringing in great scope and space for United States of Al Season 2.

United States of Al Season 2 – About the show!

United States of Al unveils the journey of Riley and Awalmir. Awalmir or Al, played by Adhir Kalyan, has worked with Riley’s team in Afghanistan as an interpreter. In the hope of a new start in life, the marine warfare veteran, Al enters America where he is helped by Riley, played by Parker Young, to settle in.

United States of Al Season 1 focuses on the safe exit of Al from Afghanistan in the hour of crisis with assistance from Riley. From there on, the season lays stress upon the cultural differences between countries and regions and the shock that they bring upon Al and Riley. The emotion of guilt in both the guys is also emphasised upon as they feel for those who’re left behind in the alarming conditions at home in Afghanistan.

As per the executive producer of United States of Al Season 2, Ferrari, this year after the disturbance in Afghanistan where the Taliban kept on taking over the control of its major cities, the writers of the show felt as if “something very big was going to change.”

Three writers of United States of Al Season 2 are either Afghan or Afghan American in origin, also having veteran links. The intense disturbance in Afghanistan created an emergency situation for them. These people needed to get their families out of the country safely. Ferrari has himself shared that there were “pressing needs to get their own family members out of Afghanistan.”

Ferrari continued, “And it happens that kind of the Venn diagram of vets and afghans and Afghan Americans that is necessary to write this show is also the one that works as a fairly effective rescue operation. So, we had to stick a pin in everything and focus first on our people that needed help and who needed to get their families out.”

United States of Al Season 2 has naturally been impacted by the experience of these writers and the plot of the second season is likely to reflect the same.

United States of Al Season 2 has already premiered. The story from the last season continues here and would take a shape in the thirteen episodes that’d be making the show. An interesting fact is that United States of Al Season 2 has been impacted by the experiences of its production team that was caught up and was trying to generate help in Afghanistan when the Taliban imposed a serious threat and attacked the country recently. The plot of the new season has taken natural inspiration from this.

In the words of Maria Ferrari, the executive producer of the show, during a press meet, “We had shot one and a half episodes during the week of the fall of Kabul and quickly realized that we were going to have to think that we had guessed wrong [about] what was going to happen and that we were going to have to adjust our plans. We chose to tell the story of what we were experiencing and hoping that some of the fear and the urgency that we were feeling in the room would come through.”

In the newly launched United States of Al Season 2, the first episode witnesses Al, Riley, and Riley’s family working together to bring Ali’s sister, Hassina safely out of Afghanistan after the situation in Kabul deteriorates.
