“Resident Alien” Season 4 Ordered for the Show’s Move to USA Network
After three seasons on SYFY, the sci-fi/comedy series “Resident Alien” is getting a fourth season and moving over to the USA Network, Deadline reports this afternoon.
Deadline notes, “With the relocation to USA, NBCU is looking to expose Resident Alien to a broader audience, a crossover potential the series’ successful run on Netflix hinted at.”
“Like Season 3, Season 4 will be available on NBCU’s streamer Peacock, with future windowing plans still being worked out,” the website also notes in today’s fresh report.
“Resident Alien” is based on the same-titled line from Dark Horse Comics.
The series follows a crash-landed alien named Harry (Alan Tudyk) whose secret mission is to kill all humans. “In Season 3,” Deadline recaps, “Harry vowed to work with General McCallister to rid the Earth of the Grey aliens, a task made more difficult when he discovered that the Grey Hybrid Joseph had taken a job in town as the new Deputy. In addition, Harry struggled to balance business and his personal life when he fell in love for the first time.”
Sara Tomko, Corey Reynolds, Alice Wetterlund, Levi Fiehler, Elizabeth Bowen, Judah Prehn and Meredith Garretson also star in “Resident Alien” alongside Tudyk (Tucker & Dale vs. Evil).
Chris Sheridan is the showrunner for the series, which premiered back in 2021.
The Ghostbusters franchise returns to the world of animation with brand new Netflix series “Ghostbusters: Night Shift,” and the official logo has been revealed this weekend.
Expect “Ghostbusters: Night Shift” to clock in on Netflix in 2027!
Netflix previews, “Ghostbusters: Night Shift, a series from Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation based on the beloved Ghostbusters franchise, will debut exclusively on Netflix in 2027.
“The new series marks the next chapter in the franchise’s ghoul-catching legacy, bringing supernatural comedy and paranormal action back to animation.”
The upcoming animated series from Netflix will be executive produced by Ben Hibon, Elliott Kalan, Jason Reitman, Gil Kenan, Amie Karp, and Dan Aykroyd.
Reitman, son of Ivan Reitman, director of the original Ghostbusters features, and Kenan co-wrote the franchise’s most recent installments, Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Frozen Empire.
“This isn’t the first time the Ghostbusters universe has gone animated,” Netflix reminds in their press release today. “The 1980s and ’90s saw The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters take over the small screen. For now, you can rest assured: If there’s something strange in your neighborhood, a Ghostbuster will be on the job — even if it’s after hours.”
