"I've truly been overwhelmed and humbled by the amazing response this show has received," said Hasan Minhaj. "The story of the American Dream is everyone's story. Regardless of race, culture, creed, or class, everyone has felt like an outsider at some point in life. I'm thrilled that so many people have connected to stories of love, family, fear, and forgiveness."
