How I Got Here is an acclaimed reality TV show from the BYUtv television channel, which premiered in 2022.[1] The series centers on people who were born in Canada or the United States as the children of immigrants, as they accompany their parents on trips back to their former homelands to learn more about the lives their parents left behind.
The series was created by production company Forté Entertainment for family-friendly television network BYUtv.[1] It premiered in October 2022 on Super Channel in Canada, and BYUtv in the United States.[2]
It received three Canadian Screen Award nominations at the 11th Canadian Screen Awards in 2023, for Best Factual Program or Series and Best Editing in a Factual Program or Series (Derek Esposito for "Zimbabwe: She Has Arrived", and Vitold Vidic for "Serbia: Two Rivers Intertwined").[3]
