What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the FOX television network, The Resident TV show stars Matt Czuchry, Manish Dayal, Bruce Greenwood, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Jane Leeves, Anuja Joshi, Jessica Lucas, Miles Fowler, Kaley Ronayne, and Andrew McCarthy. The series follows a group of doctors at Chastain Memorial Hospital, 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 staff includes Chief Resident Conrad Hawkins (Czuchry), resident internist Devon Pravesh (Dayal), cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. AJ Austin (Warner), veteran doctor Randolph Bell (Greenwood), neurosurgery resident Billie Sutton (Lucas), surgical intern Leela Devi (Joshi), emergency doctor Kincaid “Cade” Sullivan (Ronayne), renowned pediatric surgeon Ian Sullivan (McCarthy), and CEO Dr. Kit Voss (Leeves).
Season Six Ratings
The sixth season of The Resident averaged a 0.34 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.77 million viewers in the live+same day ratings (includes all DVR playback through 3:00 AM). Compared to season five, that’s down by 19% in the demo and down by 11% in viewership. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but the higher-rated series are usually renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how The Resident stacks up against other FOX TV shows.
The Resident has been cancelled, so there won’t be a seventh season. Could the show be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will FOX cancel or renew The Resident for season seven? Last season, the series was supposedly almost cancelled. The ratings are middle-of-the-road, and FOX doesn’t own the show, so they don’t make as much money from it. The network is focusing on owning the shows it airs so I suspect this year could be the final one for The Resident, at least on FOX. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

The Resident still has so many more storylines to tell. While the season finale does work well as a series finale, there’s still so much more for this show to explore. There’s something off about The Resident’s situation, though. There are photos out there of props/wardrobes being packed up and stored for auction, as well as the ad for a four day sale starting March 21. Yet, Amy Holden Jones says she hasn’t heard anything from FOX. Over the past week, one fan tweeted her twice asking about cancellation. Amy’s replies were “No word yet.” (March 1) and “All I… Read more »

If Fox does cancel the show, it is an example of Life imitating fiction.
Season 6, the hospital fights to stay alive because of money and so follows The Resident.
It’s sad how close to truth this show is. Only if Fox could be the hero in this story.
As for this viewer/Vet/homeless/elderly man with a mental illness, this show hits close to home in so many ways, that I hope if it stays around for a few more seasons,
I promise not to do what Padma almost did.
✌️
YES if Only Fox could be the hero in this story BY GIVING US SEASON 7
The Resident is the best medical show period. The Resident we’d watch before anything else
