Why You Should be Watching ‘Resident Alien’: An Interview with Series Creator, Max Carter
Here at Archyde, we pride ourselves on spotting the gems. And trust me, “Resident Alien” is a sparkling one. It stars the always brilliant Alan Tudyk, and yet, it feels like a secret. To shed some light on this fantastic show, I spoke with Max Carter, the creator and showrunner of “Resident Alien.”
Interview with Max Carter
Archyde: Max, thanks for taking the time. Many of our readers know Alan Tudyk from his iconic role in Firefly. How did you approach casting him as Harry, an alien in disguise?
Max Carter: Well, after seeing him in Firefly, it was a no-brainer. He’s just got this innate ability to be both incredibly funny and incredibly vulnerable at the same time. Harry needed to be alien, awkward, and yet, you have to root for him. Alan embodies all of those things perfectly. It was an easy casting decision really.
Archyde: The show balances comedy and sci-fi so well. What’s your secret to maintaining that balance?
max Carter: I think by allowing the story to breathe honestly. We never forget that this is a show about an alien who wants to eliminate humanity, while also experiencing our world. It’s a funny, but also frightening concept, and we treat it with both great humor and a sense of genuine wonder.
Archyde: Season 2’s New York episodes, particularly “An Alien in New York” and “Escape From New York,” were fantastic. Can you talk about the inspiration for that arc?
Max Carter: The New York arc was a chance to delve into Harry’s past, specifically his connection to the code and Violinda Darvell. We wanted to raise the stakes, and show Harry venturing out of his comfort zone. It gave us a great canvas to create excitement.
archyde: alan’s performance is just phenomenal in those episodes. How much of his own comedic touch does he bring to the role?
Max Carter: Alan is a powerhouse. A lot of the humor is in his incredible delivery,a lot. he has a real knack for physical comedy,and he’s always finding new angles and expressions that surprise us. It’s a collaborative process,and his input is invaluable.
Archyde: The show blends comedy with genuine emotional moments. How do you approach developing the relationship between Harry and asta?
Max Carter:Their dynamic is at the heart of the show. Harry begins utterly without empathy, but Asta sees both a friend and someone to protect. She sees his humanity even before he truly does.that evolution allows for both real moments of comedy and deeply felt connection. it is indeed vital to have both of these aspects in the show.
Archyde: “Resident Alien” seems perfect for audiences who have enjoyed shows like “Firefly.” Why do you think more people aren’t watching it?
Max Carter: that’s the mystery we’re always trying to crack. I personally feel it’s an issue of the show not being given enough publicity. The show has a loyal audience, and we hope that enthusiasm will grow, and more people will see it. I am sure with time, the audience will grow even larger.
Archyde: what can you tease about future seasons or episodes?
Max Carter: While I can’t give anything away,just know that the adventure is always ongoing. Harry’s journey is not set in stone, and the town of Patience holds many secrets, and even more funny encounters. There are new arrivals and new threats. It’s going to be an interesting ride.
Archyde: Max, thank you so much for your insights. It’s been a pleasure.
Max Carter: The pleasure was all mine.
If you haven’t already. Check out “Resident Alien”. It’s what you have been missing.
