This acclaimed sci-fi comedy with 98% on Rotten Tomatoes just got canceled ahead of its season 4 finale
Bad news, "Resident Alien" fans: we'll be saying goodbye to Harry Vanderspeigle (Alan Tudyk) and co. very soon, as the sci-fi comedy will soon be coming to an end. Per a report from TV Insider, we now know that "Resident Alien" season 4 will be the show's final outing, with the upcoming season 4 finale (due to air on August 8) serving as the series finale. Speaking with TV Insider, "Resident Alien" creator and showrunner Chris Sheridan admitted that he "knew going into it [season 4] that this was likely going to be our final season," presumably because the show dodged cancellation last time out (landing a budget reduction and a move from SyFy to USA Network). At the very least, it sounds like Sheridan has made plans to wrap the show up in an acceptable way. "Creatively, that was exciting because I knew we could spend the time wrapping up some storylines and driving toward an ending," he told TV Insider.. "I'm so proud of how good Season 4 is and especially proud that we were able to finish as strongly as we did, with a finale that is probably my favorite episode of the series." And speaking of the final episode, Sheridan said this: "It gives "Resident Alien" a very satisfying ending while also leaving the door cracked open for any future this world may have. I can't wait for everyone to see it." This news all comes in spite of the fact that the show has been a hit with fans. "Resident Alien" currently holds an overall critics' rating of 98% on Rotten Tomatoes, with a Popcornmeter score that's not far behind (87%). Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The series has also proven popular on Netflix; whenever a new season arrived, it usually appeared within the streamer's top 10 shows. Unfortunately, Deadline reports that "Resident Alien" season 4 has only been "a modest ratings performer" and "hasn't gotten much traction on NBCU streamer Peacock." If you're not familiar with the show, "Resident Alien" is a sci-fi comedy-drama about Harry, an alien who crash-lands on Earth. He decides to live among the humans in the small town of Patience, Colorado, and adopts the identity of the town's doctor, rather than following through on his original, secret mission. If "Resident Alien's" cancellation means you'll soon be on the hunt for a new binge-watch, check out our round-up of the best shows like "Resident Alien" for some streaming recommendations that could help you replace the outgoing show on your watchlist. "Resident Alien" season 4 continues to air Fridays at 10 pm ET on USA Network; the series is also available on Peacock. You can also stream "Resident Alien" seasons 1-3 on Netflix now.

Kelly Osbourne says she's lost her ‘best friend' with dad Ozzy's death
Kelly Osbourne has released a statement following the death of her father Ozzy, saying she 'lost the best friend I ever had.' 'I feel unhappy, I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had,' she said on her Instagram story, quoting the lyrics of Black Sabbath song 'Changes.' The song originally appeared on the band's 1972 album 'Vol. 4' before Ozzy and Kelly recorded a version together in 2003 with altered lyrics, changing the song from depicting a romantic breakup to a father-daughter relationship drifting apart. Until 'The Osbournes' – the reality TV show documenting their family life – aired from 2002 to 2005, Ozzy was best known as the 'Prince of Darkness,' a pioneer of heavy metal and rock whose legendary, and controversial, antics on stage once included biting the head off a live bat. (He thought it was rubber.) But through his interactions with his wife, Sharon, and his youngest children, Kelly and Jack, the public were introduced to his domestic side, watching him bumbling around the house and telling his children not to do drugs. Ozzy died on Tuesday at age 76, his family announced in a statement, saying that 'he was with his family and surrounded by love.' They haven't yet announced a cause of death. Just weeks before his death, he played his final show in Birmingham, England, where Kelly got engaged to her long-term partner, rock musician Sid Wilson. She posted a video on Instagram of the moment that Wilson, who is part of heavy metal band Slipknot, got down on one knee and proposed in front of various family members and friends, including her parents. In the footage, Wilson can be heard saying: 'Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world.' Ozzy then interjects: 'F**k off, you're not marrying my daughter.' The assembled crowd laughs before Wilson continues: 'Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you. So, in front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly, will you marry me?' The couple, who have been together since at least 2022 and share a young son, Sidney, then embraced as onlookers clapped and cheered. CNN's Jack Guy contributed reporting.
