FOX is returning to Chastain Memorial Hospital. The network just announced they’ve renewed The Resident for the 2020-21 season. Season four is expected to air sometime in 2021 (depending on when production can resume).
The medical drama follows a group of doctors as they face personal and professional challenges on a daily basis. Although its motto is, “Committed to excellence,” the hospital is staffed with human beings, and humans are flawed. The cast includes Matt Czuchry, Bruce Greenwood, Manish Dayal, Emily VanCamp, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Jane Leeves, and Morris Chestnut.
Season three of The Resident averaged a 0.73 rating in the 18-49 demo and 4.03 million viewers. Compared to season two, that’s a 22% drop in the ratings and a 20% decline in viewership. Despite the decline in ratings, FOX is keeping The Resident on call.
FOX’s Last Man Standing was also renewed for a ninth season today. “The Resident and Last Man Standing are such important parts of FOX, and we’re so pleased they will be returning next season,” said Michael Thorn, President, Entertainment, for FOX Entertainment. “We want to thank all of the writers, actors, directors, producers, and talented crews for both of these shows, and, of course, our friends and producing partners at 20th Century Fox Television.”
What do you think? Do you watch The Resident TV show? Will you watch season four on FOX?
So happy The Resident is returning. Love the show.
This show renews my faith that there is still good in the human race…we need shows like this to counteract all the doom and gloom in the world today
Always love the show I want this show to stay
The Resident is my favorite show and I’ve really been missing it. I love all the story lines whether per episode or ongoing and I love all the characters.
I love watching the residents the medical center because they to the glory stuff and I like seeing doctors saveing people in the operating room and out. Plus I love the whole cast
My daughter and I love watching the Resident. It’s our time to enjoy something together between her job, college and me being a full time care giver after the recent passing of my husband.
Yea! We love the Resident. So glad Fox sees the value of this great show. Hopefully it will be on for several more years.
Very glad. Looking forward to another season. Cast is very good.
Love, love this show! Actors are all great and situations and romance seem real.
Love, love this show! Actors are great and the romance seems so real.
We love “The Resident”. The stories are well thought out and the actors do a really great job. The personal situations keep everything well balanced. Thank you Fox for renewing such a wonderful show.
A suggestion…..maybe it’s not a good idea to have it up against “NCIS” which I also record and watch. “NCIS” has been on something like 17 years and is still going strong.
Awesome…so glad this show will be on.
Love this show, I’m glad it is returning for another season.
Thank You! I love the resident. Will watch season 4 plus every other season to come. Great cast. Have been a fan of Emily Van Camp since Revenge. She and Matt are a great couple. Don’t belong to the 18-49 group but this is one of my favorite shows. I see that it dropped in rating numbers. Perhaps the drop was because it was moved from Monday night to Tuesday. Should have left it with 911 and dropped 911 Lone Star. Just saying.
Thrilled this show is continuing. From a resident in Australia.
