Resident Alien Cancelled

“I knew going into it that this was likely going to be our final season,” Sheridan tells TV Insider. “Creatively, that was exciting because I knew we could spend the time wrapping up some storylines and driving toward an ending.

 

“I’m so proud of how good Season 4 is and especially proud that we were able to finish as strongly as we did, with a finale that is probably my favorite episode of the series,” the EP added.

Based on the Dark Horse comics series of the same name, Resident Alien follows a crash-landed alien (Alan Tudyk) whose original mission was to k!ll every living being on the planet. But after spending time on Earth and making friends in the town of Patience, Colo., he changed course and set about on a new plan: To save humanity from other races of aliens who want to claim the world as their own.

Season 4 has seen Harry going head-to-head with a Mantid that stole his identity. Making matters even worse, Harry realized his alien essence was stolen by the Greys as a result of his time spent captured on their spaceship.

 

In addition to Tudyk, Resident Alien stars Sara Tomko, Alice Wetterlund, Corey Reynolds, Levi Fiehler, Elizabeth Bowen, Meredith Garrettson and Judah Prehn. The series also boasts an impressive list of guest stars including Edi Patterson (The Righteous Gemstones), Terry O’Quinn (Lost), Enver Gjokaj (Invasion), Gary Farmer and Sarah Podemski (Reservation Dogs), Jewel Staite (Firefly) and Linda Hamilton (The Terminator franchise).

Resident Alien was adapted for television by Sheridan, who has also served as showrunner since its launch.
