SyFy’s „Resident Alien“ combines a unique blend of humor and sci-fi, set against stunning backdrops. The show features Alan Tudyk as Harry, an alien who crash-lands on Earth and adopts a new identity as a medical examiner in the fictional town of Patience, Colorado.
Although the series is set in Colorado, most of the filming occurs in British Columbia, Canada. Key locations include:
- Britannia Beach
- Sea-To-Sky Corridor
- Capilano River Regional Park
These sites provide the scenic Rocky Mountain views depicted in the show. The second season finale showcases a dramatic bridge in North Vancouver’s Capilano Park.
Ladysmith, a small town on Vancouver Island, serves as the primary stand-in for Patience. This community, with a population under 9,000, features several storefronts and locales used in the series. Production has positively impacted the local economy, with crew members frequenting local businesses.
Some sets are constructed on a studio lot in Vancouver, while other filming locations include:
- Burnaby, B.C.
- Squamish, B.C.
Interestingly, season 3 introduces a hint of the Pacific Northwest with exterior shots taken at The Lodge at Riverside, a hotel in Grants Pass, Oregon. This location stands in for a log cabin-style hotel in Yellowstone National Park.
The first three seasons of „Resident Alien“ are currently available for streaming on Netflix. Season 4 is in development, with a release date yet to be announced, and it will air on USA Network.
