Tudyk does a great job as a fish out of water character. Season 1 was really good with a good balance of all the characters and story line. Season 2 on the other hand falls into the same problem will all tv shows these days, they veer off the main topic and try to add in the fake drama to pull in the real housewives type viewers. All the parts that are focused on the alien related activities work, the parts that try to add in the fake drama don't. Still one of my favourite basic cable shows! Season 3 is more of the same, the sci-fi works, the forced dram doesn't. Jay is gay, who couldn't see that coming from a 1,000 miles away. Ending wraps everything up in a pretty bow... for me there just wasn't enough of the sci-fi aspect to it.

It's a goofy, light-hearted show with a lukewarm plot. But the characters and the humor make it worth it.

Most of the comments left here are from before the show was cancelled, But I can safely say this is one of the better SciFi shows, It always had a good message and always knew how to make me laugh. It also somehow managed to get a near perfect ending. I'm going to miss it dearly, See you someday Resident Alien 👽

What is this, why was it cancelled? I enjoyed watching the hero, he is a great actor, he did a great job as an alien.
