RESIDENT Alien found a new home and secured its fourth season.

The comedy show’s third season came to an end in April, and fans were left in the dark about its future.

Resident Alien was first released in 2021 and focuses on the character Harry Vanderspeigle, played by movie star Alan Tudyk.

Coroner Harry is actually an alien in disguise sent to Earth to kill all humans.

Over the course of three seasons, Harry lost faith in his mission as he began to bond with his host family in Colorado.

Fans loved the quirky plot and were very concerned when Syfy announced it was unlikely to renew Resident Alien last month.

But now, good News came from USA Network.

The NBCUniversal network acquired the show from Syfy and has already confirmed a fourth season, according to Deadline.

Although the channel reported that the show would see a “significant budget reduction” in its new home, fans were still overjoyed by the news.

‘SO HAPPY’

On X, formerly known as Twitter, Resident Alien executive producer Chris Sheridan thanked fans for their support during the dark times.

“I’m thrilled to announce that Resident Alien has been picked up for a new season! We’re moving to USA Network for a 10-episode 4th season! Thank you for your patience and for being the best fans in the world,” the television showrunner wrote. .

“This is fantastic!” one excited fan wrote in response.

“I’m so excited for another season of this!” said a second.

“Fantastic news, Chris! Yay! I love this show so much. Congratulations to you and your amazing Resident Alien family,” a third social media user wrote.

“This is the best news!!! I’m so excited!!!!!” another fan exclaimed.

“So happy. One of the best written shows ever. The acting is top notch too,” said a fifth.

CHUCK CHUCKY?

While Deadline had some good news to share about Resident Alien, there was no update on Chucky.

Chucky is based on the infamous horror doll and is shared by USA Network and Syfy.

Just like Resident Alien, the future of the series was unclear after three seasons.

“It makes me sad and nervous that #ResidentAlien and #Chucky seem to be in trouble. I’m going to need both of them renewed ASAP please,” one person on X begged before the news of Resident Alien’s renewal broke.

Right now, fans are worried that Chucky won’t be picked up for Season 4.
