Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
Watched the pilot tonight. I haven't read the thread yet because spoilers, but this show is already a winner. Will get caught up in a couple of days.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
Last night's episode (#4) was so damn good. I'm having a hard time imagining anyone else in the lead role, other than Alan Tudyk at this point.
Maybe next year, maybe no go

This show delivers! Every time I see D'arcy I think of Amy Adams.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
Another great episode. They seemed to have dropped the plot point from a few weeks ago
but everything else is so enjoyable, I don't even care. Comparing a woman to warm ham? Hilarious.

I dont watch shows but did skim this one online. He seems to have been here a few weeks at the least or months at most yet they didn't send a second device .

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
We don't really have a concept of time (I'm an episode behind) yet, except that he's hinted he left a family at home to come do this thing. It could have taken him 20 years to get here. I may have missed something, though.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
Tudyk managed to play both a likeable guy who was sadly killed, and a somewhat likeable alien who killed him and stole his identity this last episode. He’s so damn good in this show.
“Monster is a cheese, right.”
Oh...and “I’m definitely f’ing with him.”
I find myself laughing out loud at least 2 or 3 times an episode. Sometimes more. That’s really rare.

Then they would be polygamists if it were purely a biological imperative, I would think.

Polygamy is a sentient being construct. In nature, it's polyamory.
It's almost as if people are the problem.

They’re sentient beings. I don’t see many squirrels or raccoons with a space program.

I have no idea why this bothers me. I have like 4 prescriptive grammar bagaboos, generally accepting that language changes over time and this is good, but Spock's redefining sentience for the entire language gets me every time. I bet English wasn't even his first language.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
It's nice they figured out a way to bring old friends together - a tradition for any show either is in (seemingly).
Always a treat when those two interact. The last time this happened was last season of the Rookie (I think). Regardless, this show continues to deliver and it's a highlight of my mid-week.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
High Harry was the best.
“Can you have your mom put popcorn on her shopping list?”
And of course
“Mr, Wagner went to prison for looking like that.”
This gets my vote for best new show of the last year. Hell, two years.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
Didn't see this current plot arc coming. With only two episodes left, I'm kinda curious where it ends up. Lisa - the woman that works for the general is...kinda scary.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
Yeah I love that they are keeping the main story arc moving along so quickly, yet still find time for touching character moments and small story arcs for all the side characters. This is really a fantastic show on all levels, I really hope (edit)

Woohoo!!!!!! Well deserved, thanks SyFy for not terminating a good show.

Re: [TV] SyFy - Resident Alien
I’m glad they expounded on Harry’s alien wife. I had some questions about that a few weeks back and they did a nice job of filling in the cracks I thought they had.
This seems like the kind of show that if Syfy did cancel it, it would get picked up by another broadcast entity. It’s become a rather large fan favorite at this point.

I suspect that she's a lizard person. Harry confirmed their existence tonight and marked them as the baddies.
