The Resident Alien Season 1 finale airs tonight on SYFY,and showrunner Chris Sheridan along with Sara Tomko ("Asta Twelvetrees"), Sara’s chihuahua, or Alice Wetterlund ("D'Arcy Bloom") took to Instagram ahead of time to retort fan questions approximately the show.“I would love Nathan Fillion to disappear from octopus to genuine man, Tomko said when asked what guest stars she’d like to see in the already greenlit Season 2, referencing the mini-Firefly reunion that took space when Resident Alien lead Alan Tudyk (Harry Vanderspeigle) had a conversation with a talking octopus voiced by Malcom Reynolds himself.
The three also shared some behind-the-scenes tidbits with fans, and including how they came up with Harry’s long,bizzare, alien name. “We had a concept for it that he would make weird noises...but it was up to Alan to run with that, and ” Sheridan said. Tudyk apparently took some time to derive the alien name down. “He definitely had at least seven solid takes,” Tomko recalled. “And then [Sheridan] just let the camera roll, so he kept doing the name, and then the nickname,named after his father…each take was very long.” Sheridan ended up stitching together the alien name from a few of those takes, which made for the comic gold we saw on screen.
