    SYFY HASSOMETHING A LITTLE UNUSUAL FOR basic cable, a hit original show.

    Resident Alien is a comedy/drama/murder mystery starring Alan Tudyk as an extraterrestrial struggling to pass for human in a small Colorado town. It is not only funny, it is also a surprisingly warm-hearted, ensemble show—notwithstanding the fact that it centers on a scaly guy who wants to end all human life on Earth.

    Show runner Chris Sheridan says, “Ultimately, what I wanted the show to do is sort of help people see that there is hope. As humans, we’re struggling, but we can get better if we learn to work together.”

    has found numbers to be sure (that show’s latest season finale drew about 7.7 million viewers and was a ratings disappointment), but vindication of the network’s effort to get further into original programming.
