“I knew that I was going to be that this would probably be our last season,” said Series and Showrunner Chris Sheridan TV Insiderwho first reported on the end of “Resident Alien”. “That was creative because I knew that we could spend the time closing a number of storylines and driving to an end. I am so proud of how good season 4 is and especially proud that we could end up as strongly as we did, with a final that is probably my favorite episode of the series.”

Sheridan also promised that the final of season 4 gives the series “a very satisfying end, while the door also remains open for every future that this world can have. I can’t wait for everyone to see it.”

Alan Tudyk plays in “Resident Alien” as an alien who has run down on our planet with a mission to eradicate humanity.
