Resident Alien

[Husker Trophy Room]

Anyone else watching this new show on SYFY? They’ve only aired 4 episodes, but I think it’s one of the funniest shows I’ve seen for a long time. The writing is brilliant, and Alan Tudyk has the most incredible facial expressions since Jim Carrey. Directed by Jay Chandrasekhar from the Super Trooper movies.

I’ve been watching it and agree. It is one of the better network tv shows out there.

Watched the first two and have the others recorded. Pretty good so far.

So far I never tuned in SYFY network. Commercial free? I hate ads .....

SYFY ..... first time tuned in. Damn, commercials . Bad. Plus occasionally, dreaded "buffering"..... first experience (Roku). Most of the time, Hulu live, NetFlix and Prime Video (Amazon)

Dropped SYFY network

I don't know how I missed this show, but its awesome. Season 3 is airing now on SyFy, but the entire series is on Netflix right now. I just finished watching season one. Hilarious! Alan Tudyk is a national treasure! The rest of the cast was funny too. And the serious and heartfelt moments of drama were good too.

Seems like I've been waiting for the new season for a couple years. About to sit down to watch the new episode.

Need to tell my daughter one more time. She has Netflix

 

[Red Dead Redemption]

I'm all caught up now. Watched the first 2 seasons on Netflix, and watched E1 of S3 on Syfy.

Show is still very good, in every category: comedy, drama, mystery.

The comedy is sometimes silly, and the characters are becoming caricatures of themselves (which happens often in comedy series), but still pretty good writing.

There has been some good character development in the second season, but what was pleasantly unexpected throughout the entire series is the sincere poignant and sometimes blunt musings by the narrator regarding the many different aspects of humanity and what it means to be human: family, friendships, a sense of belonging, a sense of purpose, different ways to view death, what is "right", what is "wrong", etc. Lots of emotions. And all wrapped around Alan's goofy, cynical, and misanthropic alien character, which makes this show so entertaining. So many one liners. LOL
