Does anyone else watch Resident Alien? (lemmy.world)

I binged it on Netflix and am now starting on the new third season.

Between Alan Tudyk being hilarious virtually every second he's onscreen and the large amount of indigenous representation without ever doing the "mystical Indian" bullshit, I'm really enjoying the show.

Any Alan Tudyk role, I jump right on in! Its corny at times, but enjoyable.

My hope is 1 more season, because beyond that it turns into "big bang theory" levels of seasons 🙃

Okay, but how's this for a spinoff? Every episode is just the sheriff giving a long monologue about whatever happens to be on his mind.

This would probably be a good set of 10m episodes 🤣

Giving sheriff an in-character youtube channel where he kind of recapped the previous episodes but went off on tangents would be perfect between-season content.

I haven't read them yet, but there is a lot of source material to work with.

I started reading them. They're fun, but it's clear how much Alan Tudyk made the role his own.
