Movie #2117 ........................."Resident Alien , Season 2 (FX )

 Movie #2117 "Resident Alien, Season 2 (FX) we loved the first season , and this second season  did not disappoint -- Harry, the alien, is still in rare form, trying to connect back to his home on the other planet -- the plot thickens in this season with a new little alien baby that is introduced (can I compare it to "alien" and not give too much away?)  the storylines continue to be  funny at times, dramatic at others, and overall hysterically scary funny --- if you like quirky, this might be just the show for you ---- it's the first one in season 1 that you have buy into to enjoy the rest of the shows...........I give this second season  a 4 out of 5.

"RESIDENT ALIEN"  season 2, about 40 mins each   2021-22      8 episodes in season 2

An alien, who has crashed landed on earth on a mission to destroy humanity, assumes the identity of Dr. Harry Vanderspeigel, so he can remain undetected by the residents of Patience, Cowhile he searches the snow-covered Colorado Mountains for pieces of his ship.  He learns "to be human " by watching Law and Order and mimicking the late, great Jerry Orbach.  One day the sheriff of Patience, Mike "Big Black" Thompson and his deputy, Liv Baker, show up at his isolated cabin.  There has been a murder in town and they need a doctor.  The murder victim is the town doctor.  Soon, he finds himself as the new town doctor and in constant contact with the people of the town.  Something until now, he has vehemently avoided.  Now as he is spending more time with humans, he is learning more about them and what makes them human.  Which gives him pause, but is still determined to complete his mission to destroy the people of earth . He also discovers there is one person in town who can see him in his true form, which, of course, is less than ideal (and a little kid)  Perfect balance of dark comedy, drama, and a wonderfully oddball sci-fi all packaged into a small town setting.
