There's nothing stopping Alan Tudyk from winning with his talent level. He surpasses every expectation in every endeavor he chooses. I freaking love that guy.
I had never heard of this show until I stumbled across it on a local TV network's streaming service . I watched the first two episodes last night and was hooked. I have set aside this weekend to binge the first two seasons . I LOVE THIS SHOW !
The scenes where he shows an unhealthy love for Jerry Orbach always get me laughing! The scene where he learns English from Law and Order was great. Alan Tudyk is great in this role
The comic Harry Vanderspeigle is like a completely different but still just as interesting character. I really wish the show could've somehow also done justice to the comic Harry
The show has just started airing in Australia. The comic book series is published as a mini series , with five sequences published out of six planned series.
I’m so jealous you get to experience it for the first time! We read the first three mini series which are contained in the collection linked in the pinned comment. Thanks for the comment! 🙏🙏
Max the kid steals his scenes, which is saying something when the costar is Alan Tudyk. I’ll be interested to see what he does as he grows older, cuz he is a great comedic actor.
Its designed to traverse light years thru the rigors of outer space. Theres no reason why it would be vulnerable, except for weak writing, weak story lines, to enable him to have to interact with the humans.
First appearance of Resident Alien was as a short story in Dark Horse Presents issues #18-#20. I happened to get them....can't remember why I bought the book but the Resident Alien stories were highlights.
If you are interested in the comic - Buy the Resident Alien Omnibus Volume 1: amzn.to/3hLtZLI Resident Alien Volume 1: Welcome to Earth! : amzn.to/34aR2aO Available in print/Kindle/Comixology. Thanks for watching! Any more Resident Alien fans out there? We have another Resident Alien video talking about the show, don't miss out on watching it!

Yea, I think it will all converge. I think it might get a big dull without all the side stories. Hopefully Harry will decide Earth is worth saving after all!
This show is literally different than anything else I've watched it's amazing it's something fresh and new and I love it. ALAN does such a great job in everything he is in loved him in this tucker and Dale vs evil and rouge one like this man can not do no wrong even loved him as the pirate in dodgeball he's such a amazing actor and one of my favourite comedic actors.

The show is funny, but I hate that they made harry a stereotypical "Kill All Humans" alien. It makes me upset, because Harry's an awesome funny dude. They Merged the Mayor with the young deputy, and just so many changes that it's almost not even the same thing.
Yea, episodes 2 and 3 are more different than even the first episode. It’s definitely something different thats loosely based on the comic. I would bet Harry comes around to love humans. Still nothing like the comic but I doubt he destroys the earth. Thanks for the comment!

Yep! And the comic is really good. Its a bit different though so don’t go into it thinking it LOL funny like the show. Still worth reading. Thanks for the comment! 🙏
Interesting, I enjoyed ur show. A lot of people say Umm, Ahh, And over and over. Proper public speaking is so important, it’s a huge pet peeve of mine. I’m going out to r local comic book store and buy these. I was into TWD then the series came out. There’s a good 1 but I never finished them is The Last Man On Earth, that’s a rest read. I’m hopeful some day it to will turn into a series. U have a Podcast? I’m going to find them. Your voice is radio voice. It’s very relaxing, and soothing. The lady reminds me of an old SNL skit, the 2 lady’s on the radio interview Alex Baldwin, very funny. But she reminds of that. Tell her to say “Sweaty balls”! I’d die laughing!! 😆 TY ❤️ Michele From Central California 👍✌️👽. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3-5-21
Why is there a problem with umm or ahh? It's a normal thing that people do, it's just filler words while people are thinking. I don't think that's valid criticism at all. Some people have anxiety or just can't find the right word, are you going to berate them too because it's a "pet peeve" of yours? What's important is the substance of what they are saying not any quirks that they may have to their speech. Sorry I know I might be coming off as harsh but your first sentence was a bit unnecessary and pushes this idea that a person has to fit this certain mold to be "perfect" or "proper" that just doesn't exist. Besides they aren't giving a speech to the whole country, its just two friends talking about stuff they enjoy.
It is amazing to me how the comic that probably has a budget of less than $30k per season has better coverage of the plot holes than the TV series that costs millions per episode. How can writing be the cheapest part of TV and movies, and yet is always the weakest part? When was the last time you saw a sci fi show with great writing and crappy CGI? Stuff with crappy CGI almost always has even crappier writing.
I don’t think the writing is bad. It’s just different from the comics. There are more differences than similarities. There are a few movies and shows that come to mind where the writing was good but but the cgi was bad: The original stargate movie, Season one of Travelers on netflix, Firefly, terra Nova, seasons 1-3 of sliders. Those just come to mind but i’m sure there are more. Thanks for the comment and we appreciate you watching 😎✌️.
I like the comic so much more. How they got to dopey comedy I have no idea. The show is ok, but, such a waste. Haven't watched any more since the girl power episode. Ugh...
Scenes with the alien and the boy - pure gold
Yes, soooo funny!
There's nothing stopping Alan Tudyk from winning with his talent level. He surpasses every expectation in every endeavor he chooses. I freaking love that guy.
Yes for sure. Tudyk is incredible. His performance completely changes the show for the better. Thanks for the comment! 😎
I had never heard of this show until I stumbled across it on a local TV network's streaming service .
I watched the first two episodes last night and was hooked.
I have set aside this weekend to binge the first two seasons .
I LOVE THIS SHOW !
The elevator pitch for the comic: My Favorite Martian meets Murder She Wrote
The elevator pitch for the show: Predator meets Northern Exposure
LOL, pretty much. Thanks for the comment!
The scenes where he shows an unhealthy love for Jerry Orbach always get me laughing! The scene where he learns English from Law and Order was great.
Alan Tudyk is great in this role
In the comic book, his ship was not hit by lighting, but by some army fighters.
That makes way more sense. Not perfect, but better
The comic Harry Vanderspeigle is like a completely different but still just as interesting character.
I really wish the show could've somehow also done justice to the comic Harry
Yea, the show is entirely different. I like them both in their own ways, just two totally different things.
The show has just started airing in Australia. The comic book series is published as a mini series , with five sequences published out of six planned series.
I’m so jealous you get to experience it for the first time! We read the first three mini series which are contained in the collection linked in the pinned comment. Thanks for the comment! 🙏🙏
I love the part in the series that he compares humans as lizards and 10 year old kid gets the best of him...
Yes! That's so good. I think harry is going to learn how smart humans really are. Thanks for the comment!
@12:15 You say 12 comic books? I thought there was only 6 as of 12-3-21? I have volumes 1-6 and now I need to know if I only have half the series.
Max the kid steals his scenes, which is saying something when the costar is Alan Tudyk. I’ll be interested to see what he does as he grows older, cuz he is a great comedic actor.
Yea, the Max Harry dynamic is really good. Thank you for watching ✌️😎
In the show they basically explain that most children are more in tune with multi-dimensional vibrations, which is why Max can see his true form.
"Suicide blond" from "number 23". Its honor that movie
Alan Tudyk He's so funny' absolute brilliant if I was still a kid I wish he was My Dad.
Yea, we have seen him a few times at conventions. He seems genuinely great.
That's what Max said!
To be fair, his ship is from an alien Planet and may not have been designed to take a lightning strike.
Its designed to traverse light years thru the rigors of outer space. Theres no reason why it would be vulnerable, except for weak writing, weak story lines, to enable him to have to interact with the humans.
I was actually Just going to say that Max shouldn't be able to "see through" the disguise if he "Morphs" his body.
Yea thats a weird thing. Just have to suspend belief I guess, lol. Thanks for the comment!
Right
You've only seen the first episode? And yet you still felt the need to make this video? Why?

The only thing I don't like about Resident Alien is the multiple over-the-the-top-side-story drama.
Yea, I think it will all converge. I think it might get a big dull without all the side stories. Hopefully Harry will decide Earth is worth saving after all!
3 years later I'm telling you it's all converging and leading up to a big end!
I think that’s one of the best parts
I had no idea it was based on a comic book.
It seems like more and more shows and movies are adapted from books or comics. Kinda makes it more interesting!
Does Erin remind anyone else of the Deputyb from Resident Alien???
This show is literally different than anything else I've watched it's amazing it's something fresh and new and I love it.
