RESIDENT ALIEN Recap: (S04E08) Mine Town
Resident Alien Season 4 Episode 8, 'Mine Town,' kicks the overarching narrative into high gear. With only two episodes left of the entire series ( sob ) after this, we're now hurtling toward what'll undoubtedly be an epic conclusion. Mike and Liv finally know that Harry is an alien. D'arcy exhibits more growth. Harry and Mike have a plan to take out the Mantid, but unfortunately, the Mantid is now Liv. 'Mine Town' is easily one of the best outings of the season thus far. It maintains a steady clip while delivering the show's trademark blend of humor and heart. RELATED: Read our recap of the previous Resident Alien episode, 'Daddy Issues' Resident Alien, 'Mine Town' We open with Jules (Jewel Staite), aka the Mantid, arriving home after her encounter with Mike. She tells someone unseen that she must leave. Jules (Manules? Jantid?) ventures into the attic, where she keeps the real Jules trapped in a cocoon. Then, the Mantid stabs the real Jules, killing her. Meanwhile, Harry (Alan Tudyk) now has to contend with more people knowing his alien secret: Ben (Levi Fiehler) and Kate (Meredith Garretson). Kate tries to wipe the alien germs off Max (Judah Prehn). She asks Harry to conceal the stone corpse of his late father. Harry committed patricide to save Max, and the Hawthornes are thankful, but it's a lot, y'all. It's overwhelming. RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Mine Town' Episode 408 — Pictured: Judah Prehn as Max Hawthorne — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) Ben asks why Max didn't tell them sooner that the town doctor is an alien. Max reminds his parents that he did — they just thought he was 'broken' and tried to send him to that school in Georgia. So, there's that. RELATED: TV Review: Resident Alien Season 4 Cletus Farts and Deep Truths Elsewhere, Mike (Corey Reynolds) tries calling Lena again to warn her about Jules. He asks her to return the call. Oh, and Cletus is farting incessantly because he misses her. It's his love language. As an English bulldog owner, I understand this all too well. Liv (Elizabeth Bowen) reveals that Jules is gone. She hightailed it out of town, it seems. Well, Mike believes she'll turn up again at the Old Mining Days Festival in a few days. It'll be a bona fide human buffet for the Mantid. At the same time, Asta (Sara Tomko) and D'arcy (Alice Wetterlund) arrive at Harry's cabin. They learn that, well, the Hawthornes know everything. Kate calls D'arcy and Asta out for keeping her baby from her. Asta insists it was for a good reason. They had to protect not only the child but Ben and Kate from the Greys. Asta defends D'arcy, who's had a rough go of it, too. D'arcy tells Ben and Kate that she's in AA now. She's on a better path. RELATED: 10 Out-of-This-World Predictions for Resident Alien Season 4 The conversation pivots to the looming threat the Mantid poses. Harry could use someone who can see aliens, like, say, Max. His parents refuse to allow Max to help Harry track down a dangerous alien, though. Kate asks Harry to stay away from her family before suggesting Mike and Liv get involved. Asta urges her not to disclose Harry's alien status to Mike. It could muddy the waters a bit. Small Town, Big Hearts Ben admits he's not good at withholding anything from Mike. Mike can see right through him. Sure enough, the following day, Ben struggles to keep the Harry-shaped secret, well, a secret from Sheriff Mike. Mike informs Ben that Jules is the Mantid. As per usual, the two bicker in a clash of egos. Ben reminds Mike that he 'pretty much runs' this town. He even came up with the new town motto: 'Small town, big hearts.' Mike proposes that Ben cancel the Old Mining Days Festival because of the Mantid. Ben claims he can't do that. He'd have to petition the town council, and the festival is in two days. It's too late to do anything. Meanwhile, Harry enjoys having his alien form back. We see him leaping out of the lake in said form like an extraterrestrial dolphin. RELATED: All Is Not Well in Patience in Resident Alien Season 4 Trailer Then, Harry learns at work that Asta is considering leaving Patience. Dan planted those seeds. So, Harry presents a list of potential places they can move to, and all of them are big pizza cities. Typical Harry. Asta remarks that if she leaves town, she's doing it alone. That hits Harry where it hurts. How dare she leave her best alien friend behind? RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Mine Town' Season 4 Episode 8 — Pictured: (l-r) Levi Fiehler as Mayor Ben Hawthorne, Alan Tudyk as Harry Vanderspeigle — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) Not a Real Doctor After this, Ben discloses the Mantid development to Harry. Now that he knows who the Mantid is masquerading as, Harry asks Ben again for Max's help. Max is the only person in town who can see aliens in their true form. Ben refuses to budge on this, though. Harry uses whatever leverage he has — Ben's therapy session shares. Ben fires back that Harry isn't actually a real doctor, and he expects the latter to refund him for those sessions. Ouch. Meanwhile, Liv shows Mike something significant she caught on the camera she installed in the woods. It's Asta with a mystery person. She's carrying a shovel. Hmm. Elsewhere, Asta and D'arcy chat about the former potentially leaving Patience. Asta admits the idea of seeing what else is out there is alluring. D'arcy bursts into tears. She can't bear the thought of her BFF skipping town. Asta embraces D'arcy, reassuring her that she's staying. RELATED: New TV Shows This Week (July 20 – 26) At the same time, Dan (Gary Farmer) asks Harry if he'd like a slice of pie at the diner. Harry declares he's angry at Dan for putting a bug in Asta's ear about leaving. After this interaction, Sahar (Gracelyn Awad Rinke) slides into the seat across from Harry. Harry asks Sahar to break Max out of Hawthorne Jail. Sahar claims that Ben and Kate are adamant about keeping Max under their thumb ever since they learned that Harry's an alien. RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Mine Town' Season 4 Episode 8 — Pictured: (l-r) Corey Reynolds as Sheriff Mike Thompson, Elizabeth Bowen as Deputy Liv Baker — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) A Realization Well, if Harry can't have Max as a helper, Sahar will do. Sahar shows Harry the formula for her patent-pending Manticide. We see said formula swirling around Harry's head, along with a few stray pieces of pie (hey, the heart wants what the heart wants). Now that he has his alien energy back, Harry understands the formula. Later, Mike and Liv search Asta's office at the clinic. They find a card from Joseph, who once gave her human flowers. Liv realizes that Joseph was in love with Asta. Asta returns to her office to find the sheriff and the deputy. Liv shows her the photo of her on the trail cam with a mystery person. Then, she whips out the card from Joseph. Asta immediately throws Joseph under the bus, claiming she was with him in the woods. They were planting radishes. Mike buys the lie. RELATED: The Premise and How Star Trek Fans Created Fanfic as We Know It When our pair is outside Asta's office, though, Mike admits that she was quick to pin it on Joseph. Liv surmises that she was with a different alien in the woods. It would have to be someone she trusts, someone she spends all her time with. That's when it dawns on Mike and Liv as they both stare at Harry's office door. He's the other alien . Finally! Not About You Next, D'arcy visits with Kate. She apologizes for the other night at Harry's. Kate reciprocates, claiming she and Ben were overwhelmed by the alien reveal. Kate understands that D'arcy was trying to protect her and her baby. D'arcy admits that doesn't make it right, though. The conversation pivots to pictures D'arcy took of Kate and Ben's baby while the latter was with her. Kate learns that D'arcy named her child Daisy. However, Kate and Ben have settled on Isabella Rose after her grandmother. Looking at the photos is too much for Kate. She's overcome with emotion. D'arcy wonders what's amiss. Kate reveals she can't do this now. She doesn't have the bandwidth or energy to make D'arcy feel better about herself. D'arcy storms out. RELATED: Read our SurrealEstate recaps Meanwhile, Harry and Sahar work on perfecting the Manticide formula in his cabin. Asta stops by, revealing that Mike and Liv caught her and Harry on camera in the woods when they tried to dig up the Mantid. Well, just Asta, for now. Harry claims he's mad at Asta. But it's okay — he's got Little Asta (Sahar) now. An Unexpected Arrival Then, Robert (Paul Piaskowski) shows up at the sheriff's office, much to Liv's delight. She informs Robert that his father is alive and looking for him. Initially, Robert is incredulous. He saw Peter die. Liv tells him that the government revived Peter. She can't contact him, but when he reaches out, she'll tell him that Robert is here. RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Mine Town' Season 4 Episode 8 — Pictured: (l-r) Levi Fiehler as Mayor Ben Hawthorne, Corey Reynolds as Sheriff Mike Thompson — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) Elsewhere, Jules, aka the Mantid, spies a flyer for the Old Mining Days Festival. The 'All You Can Eat' tagline is really intriguing for her. D'arcy pops into an AA meeting, where Asta and Kayla's cousin from the reservation speaks about her experience as a sponsor. D'arcy recognizes her. She admits that she tried to make a situation about her before realizing, 'It's not always about me.' This statement profoundly resonates with D'arcy. I love Alice Wetterlund's performance in this short scene. RELATED: Revival : Check Out 9 First-Look Photos From Melanie Scrofano-Led Series Later, the town attends the Old Mining Days Festival. Ben sports 10th-century garb, complete with a handlebar mustache. Mike insists Ben should've canceled the event. Ben counters that he doesn't want everyone living in fear. The Bait and the Lure Then, Mike shows Liv the layout of the nearby mine, where he plans to lure in and blow up the Mantid. In the meantime, he'll watch Harry's movements. He believes, if anything, the only two aliens in town would know each other. At the same time, Asta discovers that Judy (Jenna Lamia) is dressed identically to her. It's no secret that, every year, Asta dresses like a town-famous historical woman who helped establish Patience in the 19th century. It seems like Judy is trying to steal her thunder. Meanwhile, Harry also observes Mike from afar. He's using Mike as bait for the Mantid. Sahar is coming down with a case of secondhand embarrassment while standing beside Harry. At least they have her bottles of Manticide at the ready. Asta reunites with Harry, but he's still mad at her. RELATED: Geek Girl Authority Crush of the Week: Asta Twelvetrees Next, Kate, Max and Isabella, aka Bella, are at a gas station. Max tries to persuade his mom to let him help Harry catch the Mantid. He procures his alien-hunting taser, which Kate confiscates before grounding him for eternity. While she's distracted, though, Max seizes the opportunity to escape. Uh-oh. RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Mine Town' Season 4 Episode 8 — Pictured: (l-r) Judah Prehn as Max Hawthorne, Meredith Garretson as Kate Hawthorne — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) Everybody Knows Lena (Nicola Correia-Damude) enters Jules' home and searches it. She spots strange liquid dripping from the ceiling. Lena pokes that spot with a broom handle, causing Jules' cocooned corpse to fall through the ceiling and into the living room. Naturally, Lena is in shock. Harry and Mike munch on turkey legs before admitting that they hoped the other would draw out the Mantid. Asta tries to tell Mike and Liv the truth —that Harry is an alien —but of course, they already know. They also know he was in the woods with her. RELATED: Read our Resident Alien recaps D'arcy approaches Kate again. This time, she apologizes for making the situation at the Hawthorne house about her. D'arcy admits she does this a lot, but she's aware of it now and will work on it. Aw. Look at how much our girl has grown. Kate accepts her apology and asks her to watch Bella while she searches for Max. Revelations Asta performs for the festival attendees as the aforementioned historical woman. While recounting the woman's story, Asta has an epiphany that relates to her own life. Judy ruins Asta's a-ha! moment by lobbing a tomato at her. Asta chases her.

Max joins Sahar some distance away. That's when he spots the Mantid. And this time, it's someone they know quite well. It's Liv.

TVLine's Performer of the Week: Sarah Jessica Parker
THE PERFORMER | Sarah Jessica Parker More from TVLine And Just Like That EPs Tell All About That Taylor Swift Needle Drop, Why It Was Perfect for Carrie's Big Moment Resident Alien's Alan Tudyk, Corey Reynolds and More Mourn Series' Cancellation, Promise Fans 'Will Still Get a Complete Story' Resident Alien Cancelled, Will End With Season 4 THE SHOW | And Just Like That… THE EPISODE | 'Present Tense' (July 24, 2025) THE PERFORMANCE | Like Carrie said a couple weeks ago, she and Aidan are '20 years in' to their relationship — if you don't count the time they were married to other people — and there's a lot of water under that bridge by now. But this week on HBO Max's sequel series, that water started to flood over, and Parker gave us vintage Carrie Bradshaw, digging deep and finding an inner strength and courage as she stood up for herself and cut things off with Aidan for good. As the episode opened, Carrie noticed that Aidan's old jealousy was coming back as he needled her handsome neighbor Duncan, and Parker's furrowed brow and sour expression spoke volumes, telling us that Carrie's worst fears about Aidan were coming true. She was later stung by Aidan kicking her out of bed for smelling like smoke, but Parker didn't back down, with Carrie bluntly telling him the next morning: 'Aidan, you're worried about me and another man.' It all came to a head when she and Aidan met for lunch, with Carrie picking up on the fact that Aidan said he 'has' trust issues, not 'had.' She stood her ground, frustration gathering in Parker's voice as Carrie told Aidan, 'I have done nothing!' (When he excused his trust issues with 'Well, can you f—king blame me?' she fired back: 'Can you stop f—king blaming me?') She finally realized they had to call it quits, with Carrie sadly declaring: 'I can't give you any more than I have, and it wasn't enough.' In a way, it was a callback to Carrie's best moments on Sex and the City, like when she told off Big after he got engaged to Natasha. ('I don't get it.' 'And you never did.') And it was exhilarating to see Carrie take control of her future once again, a Taylor Swift song playing as she headed back out onto the New York City streets to meet her girlfriends. Parker tapped into the untamed spirit that made us fall in love with Carrie Bradshaw in the first place — and showed us that her story is far from over. Scroll down to see who got Honorable Mention shout-outs this week… HONORABLE MENTION: Anson Mount As Enterprise captain Christopher Pike on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Anson Mount has always looked the part of the dashing action hero, and he filled that role admirably this week as Pike and M'Benga beamed down to a hostile planet overrun by zombies to retrieve a rare flower. But the reason why they needed that flower — to try to save the life of Pike's Gorn-infected girlfriend Marie — added a poignant emotional layer to Pike's actions, with Mount infusing a palpable edge of anxiety into Pike's reckless drive to complete the mission. Then when Pike reunited with Marie on the ship, Mount showed more vulnerability than we're used to seeing from a Starfleet captain as Pike confessed how scared he is about Marie's fate. It's nice to see a Star Trek captain save the day, of course… but we're also happy to see Mount delve into what's truly important to this captain. — D.N. HONORABLE MENTION: Ebony Obsidian As any Sistas fan can attest, Karen's pregnancy has been a wild ride for everyone involved. Not only has it lasted more than five seasons, but what began as a simple 'who's the daddy?' mystery eventually gave way to a soap-tastic 'twins from two different fathers' scenario. And up until now, we've all enjoyed watching the saga unfold, relishing each ridiculous twist and turn. But there was nothing to enjoy about Wednesday's episode, save for the incredible performance delivered by Ebony Obsidian at her character's darkest hour yet. It was devastating enough watching Karen struggle to have her concerns taken seriously by her racist doctor, but the actual moment she learned that one of her twins had died will haunt us for quite some time. Obsidian was given the incredible task of portraying an expectant mother's absolute worst nightmare — from the initial haze of confusion and disbelief, to the sudden wave of insurmountable grief — and she fully rose to the occasion, finding new ways to break our hearts in each scene. Karen may be historically prone to dramatic outbursts, but we've never seen Obsidian forced to give so much of herself, and we're grateful for her sacrifice. — Andy Swift HONORABLE MENTION: Corey Reynolds Corey Reynolds has been a delight throughout Resident Alien's four-season run playing Patience's leading alien skeptic Sheriff Mike. But ever since Mike started to believe, the actor has soared even higher with stellar one-liner deliveries and the flaunting of his character's egotistical bravado around town. In Friday's episode, all of that and more took center stage after Mike and Liv finally learned that Harry was, in fact, the town's 'resident alien.' Reynolds had us in stitches as Mike attempted to purposely sweat out pheromones, compared his own 'delicious' qualities to a baked potato (with the works!) and entered into the silliest of stare-downs with Harry. Reynolds has always served up excellent comedic timing, but watching him go toe-to-toe with Alan Tudyk raised the stakes even higher and brought the brightest of smiles to our faces. — Nick Caruso Which performance(s) knocked your socks off this week?

Why Is 'Resident Alien' Canceled? What to Know About the Decision and When the Last Episodes Will Air
The sci-fi comedy will end with the upcoming season 4 finale Resident Alien no longer has a residence. The sci-fi comedy, based on the comic of the same name, debuted in 2021 on SyFy and now, Resident Alien has been canceled ahead of its upcoming fourth season finale. "I knew going into it that this was likely going to be our final season," series creator and showrunner Chris Sheridan told TV Insider. "Creatively, that was exciting because I knew we could spend the time wrapping up some storylines and driving toward an ending." He continued, "I'm so proud of how good season 4 is and especially proud that we were able to finish as strongly as we did." The show stars Alan Tudyk as an extraterrestrial who crashes on Earth, intending to wipe out humanity. After disguising himself as a doctor named Harry Vanderspeigle, he falls in love with the residents of the small Colorado town where his ship landed, and rethinks his mission of destruction. So why is Resident Alien canceled? Here's what to know about the series ending after four seasons, and what the actors have said about the news. Why is Resident Alien canceled? While a reason has not been given for Resident Alien ending, Deadline reported that the series "came close to cancellation after Season 3." It ultimately scored a renewal, but with a budget reduction and a move from SyFy to USA Network. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the network change was "in hopes to expand its audience." The outlet also reported that Resident Alien received a boost in viewers after the first three seasons were added to Netflix in summer 2024. What has the cast said about Resident Alien's cancellation? Series star Tudyk commented on the cancellation, writing on Threads, "It was a hell of a fun playground to play in. Laughter through the tears." Corey Reynolds, who plays Sheriff Mike Thompson, also posted a similar sentiment on the platform, writing, "Best job I ever... had." "Special 'thank you' to all the fans who always showed us so much love. The feeling was absolutely mutual," he continued. "Thank you all for your kind words, love and support!! It's definitely a disappointing turn of events." "Frankly, I would've been happy playing, Sheriff Mike 'Big Black' Thompson, for the rest of my life," the actor added, promising that fans "will still get a complete story." Sara Tomko, who portrays Asta Twelvetrees, posted about the news on her Instagram, sharing photos of her on set. In the caption, she wrote, "It will take time for me to process and digest this fully, I'm sure ... For now, I can say with a full heart that this show changed my life completely." Elizabeth Bowen, who portrays deputy Liv Baker, also posted on Threads, assuring her followers, "We're OK." "We've been thinking that this season was probably our last ever since we got renewed for season 4. This is just confirmation," she said. "Thanks to everyone who has supported the show and continues to support us. We love you. Three more episodes." Will there be a Resident Alien spinoff? A Resident Alien spinoff has not been announced, but Sheridan expects fans to be satisfied with how the series concludes. The showrunner also teased that the finale "is probably my favorite episode of the series.' 'It gives Resident Alien a very satisfying ending while also leaving the door cracked open for any future this world may have," he continued. "I can't wait for everyone to see it." When does the Resident Alien series finale air? The Resident Alien series finale will air Friday, August 8 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on USA Network and SyFy. The episode, fittingly titled "The End Is Here," is written by Sheridan. After the news broke, Tudyk posted an Instagram clip from San Diego Comic-Con on July 25, reacting to the cancellation. In the video, the actor hinted at what's ahead for his character, Harry, in the finale: "And even though no spoilers, I don't die at the end." Where can I watch Resident Alien? Resident Alien airs Fridays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on USA Network and SyFy. The latest episodes are available to stream a week later on Peacock. The first three seasons can be watched on Peacock and Netflix. Read the original article on People

Netflix's 'terrific' comedy axed after four series as fans left 'heartbroken'
Netflix's much-loved comedy Resident Alien has been brutally axed after four series - with fans left devastated by the sudden news ahead of the sci-fi show's big finale Netflix users have been left heartbroken after one of its hit comedies was cancelled after four series. American sitcom Resident Alien - which is available for UK viewers on Netflix - will be coming to an end after its four series. The Syfy comedy stars Alan Tudyk as Harry Vanderspeigle - an alien who crash lands in Patience, Colorado and assumes the identity of a human doctor that he killed. Despite being sent to Earth to destroy the human race, he begins to question the reasoning behind his mission as he grows attached to those around him. The show's creator Chris Sheridan announced today: "I knew going into it that this was likely going to be our final season. "Creatively, that was exciting because I knew we could spend the time wrapping up some storylines and driving toward an ending." He added to TV Line: "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 favourite episode of the series." Fans of the show quickly took to X to vent their frustration at the news. One wrote: "Resident Alien was one of the funniest shows and this season the show has gotten even better. So bummed more people didn't give it a look. Alan Tudyk is a delight and the rest of the cast were great. #ResidentAlien." While a second wrote: "With the TV market increasingly saturated with cheap reality shows, procedurals, and sequel shows, it is so hard to find a truly unique but terrific show. That's why I'm very sad to see Resident "Alien is canceled. Alan Tudyk is amazing in it and it is wildly amusing." A third complained: "Awww man. I haven't finished season 3 yet but I love this show." While a fourth said: "It's worth pointing out that #ResidentAlien not only had yet another great episode with drama, comedy and plenty of great character moments, but they did it with just a few minutes of VFX. Clearly, it's cost-effective to give them another season." "NOOO THIS IS SOME B******T. I love this show sm i rlly hope the rest of s4 brings it to a satisfying ending," another wrote. "gonna miss my fav alien," they added, alongside a broken-heart emoji. Others were hopeful that the show may find another life on a different network or streamer. "Streaming might finance a final season if needed," one fan said. Another added: "Hope they shop it around to streamers, the show is fantastic."

Resident Alien has been canceled after four seasons
Resident Alien has been canceled after four seasons on USA Network despite its near-perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes. It was announced on Thursday that the current season, which began on June 6, would be the last. As it stands, the final episode is scheduled to air on August 8. Created by Chris Sheridan, the sci-fi comedy drama – based off the comic book of the same name – premiered in January 2021. The show follows the adventures of extraterrestrial Harry Vanderspeigle, played by Alan Tudyk, who lands on Earth and assumes the identity of a small-town doctor after accidentally killing him. Based in Colorado , the alien soon becomes enthralled by human beings and instead of exterminating, forms connections with them. Resident Alien has proved to be hugely popular since its release. On the review-aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, it has an impressive average score of 98 percent. Its Rotten Tomatoes score surpasses that of other wildly popular shows like The Last of Us , which sits at 93 percent, as well as Stranger Things , which has a score of 83 percent. Showrunner Sheridan broke his silence on the series' axe in a statement shared with TV Insider. 'I knew going into it that this was likely going to be our final season,' he said. 'Creatively, that was exciting because I knew we could spend the time wrapping up some storylines and driving toward an ending. 'I'm so proud of how good season four 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.' Despite his words, devastated fans expressed their disappointment over the news on Reddit. One said: 'You know what? This is some [expletive].' 'My day just got immeasurable worst,' another wrote. A third continued: 'Seriously! What the heck.' 'Sad,' another simply penned. 'Love this show.' A fifth added: 'I'm devastated… They effectively killed a great show. Shame on them.' 'Seems inevitable that every show I like gets canceled,' continued a sixth. 'I feel extra bad because it's my dad's current favorite of everything we watch together.'
