Resident Alien

[Converge]

I like Tudyk a lot in what I've seen him in, he's brilliant in Tucker and Dale vs. Evil and Firefly, but I've read this series is rather average unfortunately

I stand corrected as I gave it a shot and really enjoy it, largely down to Tudyk of course, he’s brilliant in it!
Glad I ignored the reviews I read and listened to feedback on here

The only people that seem to give this a poor review are the ones that don't "get" this type of dark humour and wit

Some of the characters are a bit too out of the box by design and that's great lol. Not seen the new episode yet, will start it shortly.

Edit^
Interesting development now!

That is great news. I am still taking in the latest episode - it's certainly going somewhere now! Those two stooges of Linda Hamilton's and their behaviour is still striking me as rather odd.

Just watched the latest episode.

I'm both surprised and pleased at the direction the show has decided to go in:

Spoiler

Him being revealed as an Alien to be specific, I've seen so many shows where the 'secret' is drawn out for literal seasons, it's something that became stale in other shows such as Smallville in my opinion. The fact they're getting it out of the way to an extent this early is only a good thing, it'll allow the show to evolve and focus on other things.

Excellent news that we're getting a season 2!

It's getting better but Harry the Alien acting as if his species is highly intelligent but Autistic sounding just doesn't work, it's just ruins the rest of it.

 

[mrk]

He does say in the last ep that his people do not have emotions and other human features, they just "are". So he's clearly adjusting to all these new feelings and emotions that he's having to conform to - It makes for great entertainment factor as a result.

 

[Reality|Bites]

I get that, it just feels a bit Sheldonish and it just ruins it for me.
I suppose if we ever heard Spocks inner monologue what would he be thinking?

"That's illogical"

Hehehe, also liked the descriptions of all the Alien pictures. "Actually they are very nice"

Its very funny and its moved much faster than I expected. I thought it would be Northern Exposure with Alan Tudyk for 8 series, which i'd of happily watched all the same.

Boy, did he call it.

The “Allah knows?!” comment just made me completely lose it. Trust him to come out with that!

I find Max’s parents a bit too trusting. The dodgy agents gaining their trust so rapidly, especially with the mother is rather worrying.

It's a comedy about an Alien

Latest episode was great, cameo was brilliant!

 

[hudson86]
