Movie #2013 "Resident Alien (FX series) Now for something completely different........contrary to what we normally stay away from (Zombies or aliens), we really, really enjoyed this series, and we think is it Alan Tudyk. He makes the show for us ---- the sense of humor is very dry ---- sometimes silly, but since it is based on an alien who crash-lands on our planet and learns to be human from watching "Law and Order," what would you expect, right? I love the diversity of the show (there's a good representation of native americans in prominent roles), but what really sells the show is the writing and how Alan Tudyk is able to make us believe he is, indeed, an alien --- so we get invested in his story and start to care about him. There is only one human in the town who sees him in his alien form, and it is this little kid who points and screams at him whenever he sees him ---- a great relationship develops between the two. We highly recommend this show --- but you have to give it a healthy chance --- watch the first two, at least, until you get used the characters in the town and him. What a like most of all about this is I try to guess where the story is going, and it always surprises me. For that (and other things stated above), I give this a 5 out of 5.
