In the end, Harry Vanderspiegle – resident alien of Patience, Colorado, couldn’t (or wouldn’t) let his doomsday device obliterate all of humanity. But to get to that point was quite the ride, wasn’t it? The season finale of Resident Alien (“Heroes of Patience”) showed us just how much humanity had seeped into the heart (hearts?) […]
If there’s one trope I like, it’s the trope that dropped like a gift from heaven into my viewing arena in the penultimate episode of SYFY’s delightful comedy/drama, Resident Alien, which was recently renewed for a second season. That’s the kind of “hell, yes” news we like to hear about. Episode 109 took us on […]
Did that octopus in the aquarium seem to have a familiar voice? Perhaps captained a Firefly class ship somewhere in the ‘verse in a time down the road? Mmm, I got the strangest feeling I’d heard that voice before in something of an authority role. It was just one of a myriad of interesting bobs […]
Turns out, Episode 106 of Resident Alien (titled Sexy Beast), wasn’t filled with the finest moments for our alien-turned-doctor Harry Vanderspiegle. His work towards understanding humanity while plotting its demise took several odd roads as the episode moved forward – and I’m hard-pressed to think of one of those roads that was a positive one.

Have we reached a turning point in episode 105 (“Love Language”) of Resident Alien? On the verge of divorce, have Harry and his wife made amends (she thinks so)? In the midst of their battle for supremacy of Patience, Colorado, youngsters Max and Sahar negotiate a peace with the alien and then indulge in some […]
Well, I didn’t see that coming, did you? The final moments of episode 104 of “Resident Alien” were right out of the “that’s a twist” playbook. I suppose, upon further reflection, we knew so little about Harry Vanderspiegle that the thought he was married really didn’t pass into our consciousness much. And that little nugget […]
Three episodes into Resident Alien and Harry Vanderspiegle seems to be finding the navigation of the human experience, including a heinous crime of his own, quite the challenging exercise. Yes, the good people of Patience, Colorado are proving to be a little more challenging than Harry had been led to believe humans would be and […]
Two episodes into the Syfy original, Vagrant Queen, and it’s clear that while there’s enough “tongue in the proverbial cheek” going on in this space offering, there’s also some serious messages and interesting story development. This isn’t a kid’s show, as the many moments of levity, fun one-liners and interesting creatures have to be measured […]

Quentin is gone, that is an emotional reality that we all have to face. The beauty of “Do Something Crazy” is that Q’s presence […]
