A hilarious comedy with a 98% Rotten Tomatoes score has been canceled after four seasons.
Resident Alien first premiered in 2021, with Superman star Alan Tudyk leading the cast alongside Linda Hamilton, Nathan Fillion, Michael Cassidy and Sara Tomko.
The cult classic sci-fi series airs on USA, and is also available to stream on Netflix in the UK.
It is based on the comic book of the same name, following alien Harry after he crash lands in a small town in Colorado and befriends the locals.
Unfortunately for his new pals, it turns he’s actually on a secret mission to kill everyone on Earth, but is forced to blend into his surroundings by pretending to be a doctor.
Although the fourth season is currently unfolding on our screens, TV bosses have confirmed that the upcoming episodes will be the last.
Creator Chris Sheridan spoke to TV Insider about the show coming to an end, explaining: ‘I knew going into it that this was likely going to be our final season.
‘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 four 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.’
That finale is set to air on August 8, meaning there isn’t too long to wait to see how Harry and the gang end up.
Alan reacted to the news on Threads, posting: ‘It was a hell of a fun playground to play in. Laughter through the tears:))).’
Resident Alien currently claims a 98% score on Rotten Tomatoes – with seasons two and four landing perfect 100% rankings from critics.
Heaping praise on the program, Zack S commented: ‘The best show on TV right now!’
‘I’ve rewatched this show many times and it still makes me laugh,’ Bildad T agreed.
Diana R hailed: ‘This is my favorite show by far!! I could and do watch all seasons on repeat.
‘The humor and acting are top notch! Looking forward to more seasons!!!’
As Elizabeth C added: ‘Resident Alien is scifi humor at its best. Sometimes shows like this diminish as the seasons go on, but I was exceedingly happy to see that Season 4 is just as good as the previous seasons.’
