Alan Tudyk: Harry embraces his humanity in 'Resident Alien' S4
1 of 2 | Season 4 of Alan Tudyk's "Resident Alien" premieres Friday. Photo courtesy of Syfy/USA Network NEW YORK, June 6 (UPI) -- A Knight's Tale and Firefly icon Alan Tudyk says he loved playing a dual role in Season 4 of Resident Alien because the Mantid who steals the appearance of his extraterrestrial character Harry is so deliciously wicked. "It was great. I wish I could play a third [character]," Tudyk, 54, joked with reporters in a recent Zoom round-table interview. "I liked being the Mantid. He was cool. i like getting to smoke cigarettes," he added. "I saw him as this appetite. He lands. He's there. He's a predator." Harry is a space alien who unexpectedly makes friends with humans in a small Colorado town before he can complete his mission to destroy the Earth. Harry is a genius, confirmed. Don't miss the season premiere of #ResidentAlien tonight, Friday at 11/10c on @USANetwork and @SYFY! USA Network (@USANetwork) June 6, 2025 Season 4, premiering Friday on Syfy and USA Network, finds the real Harry imprisoned on the moon, emotional and without his super powers, while the Mantid impersonates him and takes over his life in the Rocky Mountains. "Harry is Harry. He's a little more unsure of himself," Tudyk said. "He's open to growth. He's the alien that came to kill everybody, but he had a heart and then, this season, he definitely has a very different journey from the Mantid because he has lost his alien energy." This development brings Harry even closer to Asta (Sara Tomko), D'arcy (Alice Wetterlund) and the folksy denizens of Patience, Colo. "He's human now and, so, that opened up a whole other journey for him -- not just becoming more human and looking at these other people as: 'Oh, I like these humans. They have these great qualities and some bad qualities' -- but to actually be one and now go like, 'i'm on this side of it now,' and have to come to accept that part of himself was pretty great," Tudyk said. Show-runner Chris Sheridan said part of the fun each season is having more people discover Harry's big secret. "I don't want to give away what happens as far as knowledge this season, but I will say that anytime anyone new finds out about Harry, it adds a new dynamic to the show, which is always helpful," Sheridan said. "But you also don't want to do it too quickly because there's also energy in the secret of it and people not knowing what's going on," he added. "So, it was really a great move at the end of Season 2 to have D'arcy find out because, then, you can come into Season 3 with a whole new piece of storytelling where now D'arcy is part of it all, so adding someone else to that list carries a lot of weight." Sheridan confirmed that another character will learn Harry's true identity in Season 4. "I don't want to say who or give it up, but there's a lot of moves this season," he said. "One thing you don't want to do, especially with a couple of hundred TV shows on the air is to take your time and bore people," he added. "So, we've always been very conscious of doing big setups and big payoffs and, with every episode, trying to have a lot of stuff happen, so this season is a very good example of that." Tudyk chimed in: "That's exactly what I would have said, to the word! That's how in sync we are!" The show also stars Corey Reynolds, Elizabeth Bowen, Meredith Garretson, Levi Fiehler and Gary Farmer.

Is ‘SurrealEstate' returning for season 4: Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on June 6, 2025, 18:30 IST Last updated June 6, 2025, 11:47 IST SurrealEstate , the supernatural drama series on Syfy, has captivated audiences with its unique blend of real estate and paranormal investigations. Led by Luke Roman (Tim Rozon), the Roman-Ireland Agency tackles haunted properties, blending spooky thrills with heartfelt character moments. With Season 3 having premiered on April 3, 2025, fans are eager to know: Is SurrealEstate Season 4 happening? Here's everything we know so far about the show's future. Has SurrealEstate Been Renewed for Season 4? As of June 6, 2025, Syfy has not officially confirmed whether SurrealEstate will return for a fourth season. The show's third season premiered recently, and networks typically wait to assess viewership and critical reception before announcing renewals. What Could the Plot of Season 4 Be? While no official plot details for a potential Season 4 have been released, Season 3's developments provide clues about where the story could go: Luke's Supernatural Journey : After regaining his ability to sense spirits in Season 2 and facing a demonic threat in Season 3, Luke's evolving powers could lead to deeper explorations of his past or new paranormal challenges. Luke and Susan's Relationship : The romantic tension between Luke and Susan, described as a significant focus in Season 3, could evolve further, balancing their personal connection with their dangerous work. New Haunted Properties : The show's premise thrives on unique, haunted listings. Season 4 could introduce fresh supernatural mysteries, perhaps tied to the agency's expansion or new characters with paranormal connections. Team Growth: The Roman-Ireland Agency's dynamics could shift, with new partnerships or conflicts among team members as they tackle increasingly complex cases. What Happened in Season 3? SurrealEstate Season 3, which premiered on April 3, 2025, picks up three years after the Season 2 finale with a significant time jump. Luke Roman (Tim Rozon) and Susan Ireland (Sarah Levy) are now partners at the renamed Roman-Ireland Agency, continuing their mission to rid properties of ghostly and demonic entities. Season 3's narrative sets up potential storylines for a fourth season, particularly with unresolved threads around Luke's supernatural abilities and the agency's future.

10 top new movies and shows to stream this weekend on Netflix, Apple TV and more (June 6-8)
June is off to a hot start, with a sizzling mix of new shows and movies to watch this weekend on Netflix, Apple TV Plus and more of the best streaming services. Returning favorites lead our TV weekend watch list. "Ginny and Georgia" season 3 adds legal woes to the mother/daughter dramedy, while "Resident Alien" season 4 spins up new adventures for the extraterrestrial doc. In terms of debuts, the biggest one is "Stick," a golf comedy starring Owen Wilson giving major "Ted Lasso" vibes. On the movie side, one of the best movies of the year is available on premium video-on-demand: "Sinners" is an electric vampire tale from Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan. Here's our guide to what to watch this weekend. If "Ted Lasso" won you over with its warm-hearted take on soccer, "Stick" might just tee up the same magic for golf. Owen Wilson plays Pryce 'Stick' Cahill, a once-great golfer begrudgingly coaching a hotheaded 17-year-old prodigy who hits long and sulks hard. Created by Jason Keller, the comedy mixes big laughs with surprising heart, peppered with cameos from real golf legends and viral YouTubers. Wilson, meanwhile, is in his sweet spot — rumpled, effortlessly cool and playing it just sincere enough to sink the emotional putt. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Episodes 1-3 streaming now on Apple TV Plus Getting cuffed for murder in the middle of your vows? Not quite the fairytale ending Georgia (Brianne Howey) had in mind. Season 3 throws the Millers into chaos: Georgia's skeletons are out of the closet, and Ginny (Antonia Gentry) is rethinking just how far she's willing to go for her mom. With Georgia's trial looming, tensions are sky-high and the family's future hangs in the balance. Ginny's growing up fast, and it's messy, painful, and anything but simple. Hold on tight, Peaches — this season is an emotional rollercoaster. All 10 episodes streaming now on Netflix The beloved sci-fi comedy is back with fresh chaos. Harry (Alan Tudyk) has returned to Earth post-alien-prison break, but there's a twist: he's now human … or at least trying to pass as one. Complicating things? A crafty shape-shifter masquerading as Harry and stirring up trouble in the already quirky town of Patience, Colorado. Meanwhile, Sheriff Mike and Deputy Liv are knee-deep in strange goings-on and dead-set on cracking the latest bizarre cases. Let the weirdness resume. Episode 1 premieres Friday, June 6 at 11 p.m. ET on Syfy or USA (via Sling or Fubo) Shane Gillis' offbeat comedy returns, still barely holding it together, which is exactly its charm. In season 2, Will (Steven Gerben) and Shane (Gillis) are riding the wave of their sorta-successful tire hustle, trying to build an empire … or at least not burn it all down. Enter Shane's wild-card dad (Thomas Haden Church), a Vince Vaughn cameo and Will teetering on the edge of a full-blown meltdown. There's HR trouble, a painfully cringey romance and plenty of chaos to go around. The wheels may be loose, but the ride's somehow even funnier. All 12 episodes streaming now on Netflix The lights are bright, the curtain's up, and Broadway takes center stage at the 78th annual Tony Awards. Hosted by Oscar nominee Cynthia Erivo, this year's celebration spotlights standout shows like "Buena Vista Social Club," "Death Becomes Her," "John Proctor Is the Villain," "Oh, Mary!," "Romeo + Juliet "and "Sunset Boulevard." But the night's biggest showstopper? A 10th anniversary reunion from the original "Hamilton" cast—yes, the room where it happens is happening again. Special premieres Sunday, June 8 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS and Paramount Plus With Showtime Shaq's trading dunks for deals in this new docuseries, which tracks the Hall of Famer's latest power move: taking over as President of Reebok Basketball. He's teaming up with Allen Iverson to revive the brand, and they're not just talking throwbacks — they're locking in rising stars like Angel Reese and setting their sights on a full-court comeback. It's part boardroom playbook, part trip down memory lane, and all about the grind. From Boston to beyond, Shaq's still running the game, just in a different jersey. All 6 episodes streaming on Netflix Crank the heat to full blast: "Love Island" is back, and the villa's filling up fast with fresh singles ready to stir the pot. Ariana Madix returns as host, dishing out no-nonsense advice and just the right amount of sass. This season's lineup? Pure drama bait, with heartbreak survivor Yulissa and cocky charmer Austin already turning heads. Expect flirty games, fiery blowups and maybe even a few real connections in the chaos. It's going to be one steamy, messy summer. Episode 1 streaming now on Peacock Ryan Coogler's completely original vampire tale hits like a shot of moonshine. The director turns the Mississippi Delta into a blood-soaked blues opera, where Michael B. Jordan plays not one but two bootlegging brothers trying to outrun their sins. It's 1932, and twins Smoke and Stack are back home to open a music haven, only to find something far more dangerous than Jim Crow lurking in the shadows. 'Sinners' is part horror, part Southern fable and part fever dream — unlike anything I've seen in a while. Yeah, it's a vampire movie, but also a celebration of Black resistance, joy and survival. Streaming now with purchase on Amazon and Apple 'Predator: Killer of Killers' is what happens when you feed the franchise creatine and throw it across three centuries. Directed by Prey's Dan Trachtenberg, the animated anthology film pits a Viking warrior mom, a ninja and a hotshot WWII pilot against everyone's favorite intergalactic trophy hunter. The animation is bold, the action is relentless and the kills are extremely savage (because Predators really don't care what century it is). Fans of the franchise are sure to enjoy 'Killer of Killers' ahead of the release of 'Badlands' this fall. Streaming now on Hulu Tyler Perry's new thriller stars Taraji P. Henson as a single mom who can't seem to catch a break. Janiyah is just trying to cash a check at the bank so she can buy her sick daughter's medicine — except everything that can go wrong does and suddenly she's in a full-on hostage situation. 'Straw's' story of a desperate parent who's one crisis away from losing everything feels particularly timely. Henson looks to give a fiery performance, and she's joined by a cast including Sherri Shepherd, Teyana Taylor and Sinbad. Streaming now on Netflix

SURREALESTATE Season Finale Recap: (S03E10) The Elephant in the Room
SurrealEstate Season 3 Episode 10, 'The Elephant in the Room,' delivers a conclusion to the overarching narrative, effectively putting the Malec stuff to bed. It's wrapped a bit too cleanly for my liking, but that's the nature of this campy, heartwarming show. The real one-two punch is August's death and subsequent funeral. While it comes out of left field, it's very much true to life — death can be sudden and quick. I sincerely hope Maurice Dean Wint continues to appear in some capacity should Syfy renew this series. Luke makes major life moves, buying The Tell-Tale Heart and proposing to Megan. There's something quite final about this season finale; however, that cliffhanger certainly leaves some storytelling room for another season. RELATED: Read our recap of the previous SurrealEstate episode, 'Grave Matters' SurrealEstate, 'The Elephant in the Room' We open with a flashback to 35 years ago. Elvis the Elephant (Patrick Kwok-Choon), aka Malec, persuades kid Luke to bash Carl's brains out, but not before trying to hop into Luke's body. Elvis claims Carl is responsible for Victoria leaving Luke. Time to kill daddy! Luke grabs the bat and wheels Elvis, who's in a wagon, into Carl's bedroom. However, instead of committing patricide, kid Luke swings the bat at Elvis. Carl leaps out of bed and secures the possessed stuffed animal. Then, Carl drives him and Luke to the lake so they can dump Malec there, perpetually trapped inside the security box. Carl reassures his son that Malec can't hurt them anymore. The Laughing Demon In the present day, Luke (Tim Rozon) meets with Susan (Sarah Levy), August (Wint) and Lomax (Elena Juatco) to discuss next steps. They know about Tyler being Malec. Luke sought advice from Phil, who shared that Malec is known as 'The Laughing Demon,' despite hating laughter. Luke explains that Malec's objective is to jump into good people and make them do bad things. RELATED: Our 15 Favorite Wynonna Earp Moments Phil also shared that Auggie's devices won't work as they are without some tweaking. If they fail to stop Malec, he will bifurcate and spread like a virus, going after everyone they love. Phil's old church has the Book of Baphomet, which contains Malec's real name. They must recite his real name as part of the exorcism. Yes, they'll have to exorcise Malec from the real Tyler MacNeil. Next, Luke calls Zooey (Savannah Basley) to ask for a favor. She meets with the priest at the church, who talks homophobic smack about Phil. Thankfully, Zooey is the Queen of Comebacks. She asks to flip through the Book of Baphomet and snap pics of the runes in the church's basement. The priest rejects her. However, Zooey spies two nuns walking by and has an idea. Breaking the Habit and a Breakup Later, Luke notices The Tell-Tale Heart is for sale, so he takes a photo of the signage. After Zooey tells Luke that the priest was a no-go, Megan (Tennille Read) calls him to inform him about his mom. Victoria is in the hospital for her heart. Her friend found her unconscious in her living room. Thankfully, she's stabilized now. RELATED: Wynonna Wednesday: Theories for a Wynonna Earp Season 5 Victoria (Jennifer Dale) asks about Tyler. She admits he was one of the voices she heard back in the day. She recognized his voice. Victoria urges her son to exercise caution. Tyler is dangerous. Luke vows to take care of him. Meanwhile, Auggie meets with Rochelle (Joy Tanner) in her office at ASDRA. He asks for a favor — he needs The God Flosser, the tech the team developed last spring. This request angers Rochelle. She's tired of risking her job and reputation for Auggie and his work. It's become too much. She breaks up with him. Aw. Poor Auggie. Rochelle orders her team to give Auggie everything on the device, though. Elsewhere, Zooey ropes Susan and Lomax into impersonating nuns to infiltrate the church basement and steal the Book of Baphomet. The Book of Baphomet After this, Lomax and Susan don habits before pretending to be nuns. Lomax feels this is sacrilegious. She makes a break for the staircase as the priest Zooey chatted with earlier zeroes in on Susan. In the basement, Lomax retrieves the Book of Baphomet. While she blows off the dust on its cover, Tyler/Malec (R Austin Ball) sneezes. He realizes someone's taking the book before bolting out of his house. RELATED: Geek Girl Authority Crush of the Week: Susan Ireland Susan gives the priest an excuse for leaving, claiming she must tend to the ailing bishop. Once she and Lomax are outside with the book, we see Tyler make a beeline for the entrance. Our pair returns to the Roman Ireland Agency, where they run into Crash (Stephen Huszar). Crash assumes this is the secret Susan has been keeping from him. She explains she's not a nun before they kiss in her office. Hawt. Meanwhile, Luke and Tyler chat in the latter's house. Luke is dedicated to selling Tyler's home at top dollar and finding him a new place. Then, Luke invites Tyler to a get-together with his pals at The Tell-Tale Heart. Midlife Crisis or Midlife Win? After this, Zooey combs through the pages of the Book of Baphomet, searching for Malec's real name, while Auggie tinkers away on The God Flosser. Luke reveals he's thinking about purchasing The Tell-Tale Heart. He wants Auggie to talk him out of it. However, Auggie does the opposite — he encourages Luke to make the buy. RELATED: The Woman in the Yard Spoiler Review Then, Luke gets an update on his mom from Megan. She's still stable, but the hospital wants to keep her a while longer. Luke and Megan go for a stroll. He tells her about purchasing The Tell-Tale Heart before admitting he wants them to get back together. The ball is in her court, though. Later, Luke chats with Lloyd (James Allodi) at The Tell-Tale Heart, a man of few words. He informs the stoic bartender about the upcoming party, which is clearly orchestrated to lure in Malec and exorcise him. After this, Tyler/Malec meets with a dealer, who procures a vial of an unknown but deadly substance. Tyler has plans for Luke's big shindig. Laughing At Him, Not With Him Next, the party hath arrived. Lloyd bartends the proceedings. We learn that The God Flosser, now fashioned as Auggie's Death Ray, will be used to exorcise Malec. Luke calls Zooey, who's still searching for the demon's real name in the book. Meanwhile, Tyler administers the deadly substance into multiple empty champagne flutes. RELATED: Underrated Horror Movie of the Month: Daybreakers Finally, Zooey discovers Malec's true name. She writes it down before fleeing the building, making a beeline for The Tell-Tale Heart. A server hands out champagne to the partygoers before Luke gives a speech. Luke shares that he's proposed to Megan. Did she say 'yes,' though? Presumably. He also cracks some jokes, and the laughter from the group vexes Tyler. Then, Luke makes a toast to his oldest friend, who's hiding in the body of his newest friend. He addresses Malec as Elvis the Elephant. Seven (Karen Knox) appears among the attendees, looking disappointed, as everyone laughs at Tyler. Lots of laughing. It drives him insane. Death's Door Suddenly, Zooey bursts into the bar, yelling, 'Charismalec,' the demon's real name. Then, Auggie switches on the Death Ray, using it to lure Malec out of Tyler's body. The exorcism is complete. The gang attends to Tyler after he collapses, Malec having fled his body. RELATED: Read our Reginald the Vampire recaps Next, Lomax explains that she noticed the champagne flutes looked strange, to which Lloyd told her that Malec added poison to them. Thankfully, she and Lloyd swapped the glasses to save the group. Later, Auggie returns home and leaves Rochelle a voicemail. He hopes they can talk soon. However, Death (Hannah Cheesman) pays Auggie an unexpected visit. 'I thought I had more time,' he says. We hear Auggie's glass break from outside the house. Oh, no. RIP, August Ripley. Goodbye, Auggie Our crew attends the funeral service for Auggie. Luke delivers a speech at the graveside. We see Auggie's daughters flanking Luke. Even Rita (Alison Brooks) is among the mourners. Zooey, Susan, Lomax, Luke and Rochelle quote Auggie's favorite philosophers and writers. It's an emotional punch to the gut. RELATED: 10 Out-of-This-World Predictions for Resident Alien Season 4 During the wake, Susan reassures Luke that they'll be okay before she and Crash depart. Megan asks Luke if he'll be okay. He claims he'll see her later. They kiss and exchange 'I love yous' before parting ways. Luke asks Lloyd to let him close the bar. After this, Luke talks to Auggie while holding a framed photo of him. He's desperate to see his friend. He assumes he won't, though, because if anyone has the most finished business, it's August Ripley. Luke wipes the counter and turns off the lights, preparing to leave. Then, he admits he wants to hear Auggie's voice. Someone, presumably Auggie, says, 'Turn around.' Luke whirls around, but we don't see what he sees. Is it really Auggie? Is he gonna stick around as a ghost? Here's hoping we get a Season 4. RELATED: Read our SurrealEstate recaps Seasons 1 through 3 of SurrealEstate are now streaming on Hulu.
