Family Guy vet Chris Sheridan and inspired by a real-world close encounter, Resident Alien is about an extraterrestrial who crash-lands in Colorado and assumes the identity of a local doctor (played by Tudyk). The cosmic visitor is completely naive when it comes to human behavior, but soon gets swept up in a murder investigation that forces him adapt to our world and decide if humanity is worth saving.

In the comics business, patience isn't a virtue; it's a survival skill. Peter Hogan knows this well. He toiled in comics for nearly 20 years before launching his defining hit, Resident Alien, in 2011. It took another decade before the television adaptation would arrive.

This Is Us?" asks co-star Alice Wetterlund in a new, behind-the-scenes featurette for SYFY's Resident Alien series, "It's sort of like that." Just, you know — with an alien, too. The series, premiering in late January, takes place in small-town Patience, Colorado, where everyone has their own personal drama to deal with, and barely recognizes that a bona fide visitor from outer space (played by Firefly and Doom Patrol's Alan Tudyk) is walking among them inside the guise of Dr. Harry Vanderspeigle. He may only have the most general understanding of human behavior, but awkward ol' Harry co...
