Resident Alien has been renewed for Season 4!

TV Line reports that the upcoming season, with an unconfirmed number of episodes, will air on USA Network, marking a move from its original home at SYFY.

The sci-fi show debuted its third season with Resident Alien Season 3 Episode 1, “Lone Wolf,” in February 2024 on SYFY.

The eight-episode season sees Harry work “with General McCallister to rid the Earth of the Grey aliens – a task made more difficult when he discovers that the Grey Hybrid Joseph has taken a job in town as the new Deputy,” per the season’s synopsis.
