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, and Miles Fowler, with Emily VanCamp, Morris Chestnut, Stephen Wallem, and Glenn Morshower recurring. 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), orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Kit Voss (Leeves), surgical intern Leela Devi (Joshi), neurosurgery resident Billie Sutton (Lucas), neurosurgeon Dr. Barrett Cain (Chestnut), and former CEO Dr. Randolph Bell (Greenwood).
Season Five Ratings
The fifth season of The Resident averaged a 0.42 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.12 million viewers. Compared to season four, that’s down by 23% in the demo and down by 11% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). 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 typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how The Resident stacks up against other FOX TV shows.
The Resident has been renewed for a sixth season which will debut on September 20, 2022. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will FOX cancel or renew The Resident for season six? The show’s been a good performer for the network and FOX doesn’t have many other established scripted dramas so I think there’s a good chance that The Resident will be renewed.

The Resident is one of the best shows on tv, with an excellent cast. I would be very disappointed if it was not renewed.
Please renew for season 6. This show is my top favorite. I can watch it over and over again and not get sick of it. Waiting for them to come out on DVDs so I can buy season 2 thru 5 that I’m missing. But still watch it on prime video. Hate that nic died in beginning but still has been a really good show and picked up well after her passing. Please renew for season 6!!!
I love resident. Please keep it
Correction: I meant Hulu!
I binged watched all 5 seasons on Peacock in record time! Please renew for a 6 th season!
I just stumbled on The Resident and have been binge watching each season and am down to the last 3 episodes. Some characters dropping like flies, but they seemed to have done a good job with the obstacles & now I’m hearing they may not being season 6?!?!? Either people don’t know about it like I didn’t or something else is going on, but I definitely would love to see it come back! I decided to watch it with my wife after season 3 & now she’s loving it as well. I’d hate to see it end this way. Maybe… Read more »
