Aside from racking up impressive series premiere ratings (thanks to a special timeslot), The Resident TV show had something of a lackluster freshman outing on FOX. After eking out a second season renewal, can it prove it is just what the doctor ordered? Will The Resident be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. **Status update below.
A FOX medical drama, The Resident stars Matt Czuchry, Emily VanCamp, Manish Dayal, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Jane Leeves, Glenn Morshower, and Bruce Greenwood. The series centers on resident Dr. Devon Pravesh (Dayal), as well as Senior Resident Dr. Conrad Hawkins (Czuchry), and their colleagues at the Chastain Park Memorial Hospital. Although its motto is, “Committed to excellence,” the hospital is staffed with human beings, and humans are flawed. Now that Devon is on the other side of the institution’s velvet ropes, Conrad wants him to understand the reality of medicine and its delivery.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly in the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival.

For comparisons: The first season of The Resident on FOX averaged a 1.02 rating and a total audience of 4.543 million viewers.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available.

What do you think? Do you like The Resident TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a third season on FOX?
*3/25/19 update: FOX has renewed The Resident for a third season.
Please renew The Resident and think about moving it to another night like Friday or the weekend?
The Resident is a Great show. I think it is taking time for the audience to get use to all the characters please bring it back for a third season and add more sex tonit both straight and gay
The Resident is our favorite show on television right now. We have a busy schedule which causes us to record this show every week and watch it on a different night. But with that being said we have never missed and episode.
Excellent show. Please renew
Love this show, one of my favorites. But it’s competing with so many other shows at the same time, I have to chose it week which one to watch live and which to record. But I do love them! Bull, the good doctor, manifest, new Amsterdam, (hubs like certain shows as well) so we have to pick and choose each night.
