Resident Alien

After crash-landing on Earth, an alien sent to wipe out humanity kills and takes on the identity of a vacationing pathology physician. He is asked to do an autopsy on the town's doctor, who died of unknown circumstances. He wrestles with the moral dilemma of his secret mission, while also dealing with a 9-year-old boy who can see him as an alien. - Wikipedia

Just concluded season one of this tv series from the Syfy Network. The quirky Alan Tudyk is perfect for the part of the main character alien as his portrayal of the bumbling extraterrestrial is hilarious and quite entertaining. Thankfully, the network has approved Season Two of the show. No dates yet as to when season two will begin but I am eagerly looking forward to it.

Yes watching this as well.  Quirky would perfectly describe the series.  Also the show hired the perfect actress to play the army general.

On that note, I think every character have their own merits to make them effective with their role. I wouldn't go into details so as not to spoil the story for those who have not watched it yet. My overall consensus is it is highly entertaining especially the jokes and nuances that Tudyk dishes out every now and then. But most importantly, it makes you reflect on what's endearing about he human specie. The traits that make us bad and our redeeming values.

late to the party but found this series quite endearing, almost done with season 1, happy to find out it was renewed for a 3rd season (given SYFYs penchant for canceling series wantonly)

I'm a fan. Super loving this! Super loving Darcy :-). Nasa season 2 na ako ep4. Season 2 last episode should be out today btw (Sept 29, 2022)

OT: Try watching bits of Alice Wetterlund's stand up comedy on YouTube. She is funny and charming at the same time. Bagay rin sana sya sa SNL.

Thought season 2 was over after the 8th episode last March as it stopped after that. Apparently it resumed the rest of the season last August. I have a lot of catching up to do. Hehehe. If you guys hadn't posted here I wouldn't have known. Salamat!

Matagal nanaman hintayan for season 3. Malamang mid 2023 pa to mag start. Hope they come up with a really good script for next season and beyond.

I just finished watching episode 14. 2 more episodes to get me by until the next season. Hehehe. Ang kulit ng take nila on aliens. Tawa ako ng tawa dun sa gray alien nung binanggit nya yung name ng species ni Harry. It also provides an "outsider" view on humans which is kind of refreshing.
