I finally started watching Resident Alien, and I'm about halfway through S3. I am a sucker for both sci-fi and Northern Exposure-ish shows where a fish out of water is dropped into a quirky and isolated community, so I don't really know how I waited so long, but it does mean I don't have to worry about it getting canceled on a cliffhanger.

As an aside, I watched S1 on a TV with "soap opera vision" motion interpolation turned on, and JFC I forgot how cheap and awful it makes everything look.

    S4 is coming to Netflix this week! Super excited. Alan Tudyk is funnier than I thought he was gonna be. No hate to him. I love the show. It's quirky and campy in the right way.

    The mayor and his wife, the sheriff, and my main babe D'arcy. D'arcy is awesome and I have no idea how she is able to do all those things. She owns the bar, does rescue mountaineering crap, and is the town drunk. I'm sure I'm forgetting things. How strong is this woman? I remember her climbing up an ice wall while helping someone out of a cave in.

    All the love to Tudyk (i have a short list of actors who i will watch whatever they do and he is on it), but I was legitimately surprised how well the rest of the cast elevated their performances to match his energy. It was very well cast.

    It reminds me of 30 Rock in that sense, where you can imagine some of these people will become respected names, but some will never deliver a performance as good again for their entire careers.
