Yes! Our favourite show on TV right now – well, just wrapped – has just been renewed for a second season.
SYFY’s Resident Alien which stars the always great Firefly and Rogue One star Alan Tudyk as an alien forced to fit in here on earth after his ship crashes and his mission to blow the planet is put on temporary pause, was ten 45min episodes of pure fun and we were waiting for news that it would be returning as SYFY, well, haven’t always got the best history when it comes to returning series
Lisa Katz, SYFY’s president of scripted content, said: “With Resident Alien, everything just came together in perfect harmony — a script by Chris Sheridan that leapt off the page, a lead performance by Alan Tudyk, whose nuance between comedy and menace was pitch perfect and a team of producers, cast and crew who were all striving to do something great.
“The appeal of this show transcended the sci-fi genre in a way that enabled us to bring in a broader audience, and as the series continues we hope to encourage more and more fans to discover Harry’s very particular perspective on humans.”
Tudyk realises that the series renewal is almost a spoiler for anyone who hasn’t see the show, saying: “It kinda gives away that Harry doesn’t complete his mission and destroy the human race at the end of this season, but it’s great to get another season’s worth of trying to do it!”
The show has been a big hit for SYFY and, honestly, it’s no surprise as it’s a series that brings the comedy, sci-fi and emotion in equally engrossing ways with a cast as oddball as they are brilliant.If you’venot seen it yet, take it from me… you’re going to love it.
Alright! time to make the doughnuts https://t.co/V7eQmjpj3W

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
