Cancelled after four seasons, Resident Alien is finding new fans on Netflix and proving why it’s one of sci-fi’s hidden gems.

The series, which debuted new episodes on Netflix this week, has been met with impressive viewing figures, but it likely won't be enough to save the show.

War of the Worlds was an obvious and devastating response to the carnage of 9/11, updating the classic novel to a modern-day depiction of a society coming undone in the face of an apocalyptic alien invasion.

Despite pulling in massive viewing numbers on Netflix, Resident Alien has officially come to an end. Here's why Season 5 isn't happening.

Resident Alien was designed to wrap up with Season 4, which serves as the series finale, according to TV Insider.
