USA and SYFY Announce Summer Premieres; CBC in Canada Renews 5 Series, Including Wild Cards
The fourth season of fan-favorite Resident Alien premieres Friday, June 6 at 11 p.m. on USA and SYFY. Resident Alien follows a crash-landed alien named Harry and his life on planet Earth. The series stars Alan Tudyk, Sara Tomko, Alice Wetterlund, Corey Reynolds, Elizabeth Bowen, Levi Fiehler, Meredith Garretson, and Judah Prehn.
The series premiere of the comic adaptation Revival debuts Thursday, June 12 at 10 p.m. on SYFY. In Revival, on one miraculous day in rural Wisconsin, the recently deceased suddenly rise from their graves. The series stars Melanie Scrofano, Romy Weltman, David James Elliott, and Andy McQueen.
CBC announced the renewal of popular original homegrown dramas including CBC's most-watched new series Saint-Pierre for a second season, as well as Canadian Screen Award-nominated series Allegiance for a third season and enduring hits Heartland and Murdoch Mysteries for their 19th seasons. CBC original blue sky procedural Wild Cards has also been renewed for seasons three and four.
In the past year, all five dramas were among the Top 20 Canadian programs on television, and within the Top 10 series on CBC Gem. Additional CBC renewals across all genres and content areas will be announced later this spring. In the U.S. Wild Cards airs on The CW, and is likely to get picked up as well, as the series was one of the featured shows at their advertisers dinner in NYC this past week.
