Syfy‘s Resident Alien has officially set its summertime return: Season 2 will resume with Part 2 Wednesday, August 10 at 10/9c, the cabler announced Friday.
In addition to its return date, the network also dropped a brand new trailer for the season’s remaining eight episodes (watch the new clip above). The second half of Season 2 picks up in the immediate aftermath of Asta (Sara Tomko) shooting a Galvan/Powell goon dead in order to save Harry’s life.
Harry and Asta “must deal with the emotional fallout of the night all while searching for the alien baby — a search that leads to big realizations for each of them,” reads the official description. “Meanwhile, Sheriff Mike (Corey Reynolds) and Deputy Liv (Elizabeth Bowen) solve a big case, Ben (Levi Fiehler) attempts to sell Patience on a new resort and D’Arcy (Alice Wetterlund) fights the challenge of a lifetime.”
The trailer also shows the return of Terry O’Quinn’s Alien Tracker, who arrives in Patience to meet with Liv. The deputy hopes the Tracker can help her prove to the town that UFOs really do exist.
In the midseason finale that aired March 16 (read our post mortem with creator Chris Sheridan here), secrets were exposed and emotions spun wildly out of control, as the alien-human hybrid baby ravaged its way through Patience, and crashed a surprise birthday party thrown for Harry. Not only did the Ben/Kate/D’Arcy triangle come to a head, but Liv also found some much needed conviction about her own experience with extraterrestrials.
With the baby still on the loose, a murder to cover up and General McCallister on their trail, Harry and Asta will more than have their hands full as we enter the season’s final episodes.
Happy to hear of Resident Alien‘s return, and what are your predictions for the remainder of the season? Watch the new trailer by pressing PLAY above, then drop your thoughts in a comment!
I so enjoy this show… far more than I expected.
Me too. I mean, the trailer for season 1 made it look hilarious and I was an Alan Tudyk fan from his Firefly days. I didn’t expect to enjoy the other characters as much, like Sheriff Mike and Deputy Liv or the hysterical interactions of Harry and Max.
i hope 2nd half is good. Its been super boring compared to season 1 so far
Interesting. It will play at 10pm EST? Wasn’t it’s usual time at 9pm EST?
Also, huzzah!!!!
*sighs* I meant “its”
The first season was 10pm. The first half of season 2 aired at 9pm with Astrid & Lily at 10pm.
I guess since they didn’t have any shows to pair with Resident Alien they moved it back to 10.
LOVE IT! August 10th, got it!!
Can’t wait. This show is so great!
It is on my calendar!
Can. Not. Wait.
Oh, man, I can’t wait for this! Yay!!
about damn time!
FINALLY!!!
Thank you for informing me of the Resident Alien new season 8/10 start date, now I have something to look forward to!
Ii have literally lol while watching this show. I love all the characters but Alan is heads above the crowd in his comedic talent. Can’t wait for season two part two and I hope the series continues after that . ❤️❤️
Been looking & looking for when this is coming back! At last some news! So looking forward to it. My husband and I love this show!
2 more years !!!
I’m beyond excited for the remaining eight episodes. I have been patiently waiting to see what will happen next. I would really love to see a romance for Asta and Harry since you know Harry really cares about her. I would also love to see a love interest for D’arcy because I don’t want her coming between want to see her coming between Ben and Kate since now they are having a baby. Mostly just excited to have the show back. 😊
I absolutely love this show it’s hilarious and a little drama. Great show!!
This was a great show. Love the characters and story .Keep the show going.
My husband and I are retired and started watching season 1. We could not wait for season 2. Can’t wait for part 2. Please tell me there is a season 3
YAY!!! So glad this show is returning. I just love it! A delightful blend of science fiction and humor. The characters are all spot on. Thank you SYFY!!
