I hope they renew it, it is really a character driven show, we don't have to see Tudyk as an alien as much.

A few friends of mine love it. They still are shocked I've not made time for it being a Firefly fan.
I will, there are, as you all know, so many choices and life can get in the way. My backlog is big.
The Big Bang Theory/og Night Court fan in me just two weeks ago binged both seasons of that revival with Melissa Rausch and was glad to hear of S3 pickup.

Resident Alien, hope you find a S4 somewhere!
