TV review: ‘Resident Alien’ is something for E.T. to phone home about


‘For some reason, I feel like bursting into song – how about 'Reflections' from Lost Horizon?’

RESIDENT Alien, the new “sci-fi dramedy/murder mystery” featuring Alan Tudyk in a perfect showcase of his comedic versatility, is a fish-out-of-water tale where fish and water are separated by a gulf of many light-years.

Sure, the concept is not all that new – from Mork And Mindy to ALF to E.T. to V and so many more, extraterrestrials trying to get by in our midst have entertained or terrified us for decades.
