Riley and Al are making it to season two. CBS has renewed the buddy sitcom United States of Al for the 2021-22 television season.
A multi-camera comedy series, the United States of Al TV show stars Adhir Kalyan, Parker Young, Elizabeth Alderfer, Dean Norris, Kelli Goss, and Farrah Mackenzie. The story revolves around the friendship between two men who’ve been through war together. Riley (Young) is a Marine combat veteran who is struggling to readjust to civilian life in Ohio. Awalmir aka “Al” (Kalyan) is the Interpreter who served with Riley’s unit in Afghanistan. After a long struggle to get him a visa to travel to the United States, Riley welcomes Al as he arrives to start a new life.
Airing on Thursday nights, the first season of United States of Al averages a 0.56 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 5.24 million viewers. It’s a middle-of-the-pack performer when compared to CBS’ other scripted series. Seven of the season’s 13 episodes have aired thus far.

Love this show. I can’t wait for season 2
I really love this show. Funny, touching with real people issues as well! So glad it will be back next year
Please god get rid of the guitar between scenes, it’s agonizing. Otherwise a decent show and looking forward to season 2.
I just finished watching Episode 13 of Season One. I retired from the Army in 1997. In 1998 I attempted suicide by putting a 357 under my chin and blowing the top of my head off. The doctors were able to save my life and reconstruct my head. 18 years later I started a nonprofit for veterans with PTSD. You can learn more at http://www.hereosoutreachprogram.org. Anyway, I was in tears through most of Episode 13. That show has so much truth and reality in it. It truly IS the story of so many veterans. I really hope they continue this… Read more »
Our family loves the United States of Al … funny and touching without being too political. Can’t wait for season 2.
Love this show! So glad it got renewed for a second season,
I think United States of Al is a very good show. It has humor and heart. I look to be entertained when I watch a program and United States of Al does that, as well as enlighten me to that which I am unfamiliar. Please keep it going. (To those who found the series to be boring: Open your eyes and heart a little. ) Thank you!
It’s a good show
I think this is a cleaver and funny show and I enjoy it.
It is sometimes funny, and I find kinda dumb and boring
Well I’d like to see how many viewers are going to be left after this network season. Sad to see network destruct is bad
I agree. This show committed the crime of simply not being funny. CBS must have had a really bad comedy pilot season.
