The Resident Becomes A Streaming Hit On Netflix, Ranking No. 8

American Assassin Netflix's Top 10 movies in the U.S

The Resident, a popular medical drama created for Fox, has found new success as a streaming hit on Netflix. The show, set at Chastain Park Memorial Hospital, follows the story of a disillusioned resident navigating the challenges of the medical field and the dynamics within the hospital staff.

After running for six seasons, The Resident concluded its run in January 2023. The series featured key characters such as Conrad Hawkins, Devon Praveh, and Chief of Surgery Randolph Bell, played by Matt Czuchry, Manish Dayal, and Bruce Greenwood, respectively.

Despite not being renewed for a seventh season on Fox, The Resident has garnered significant viewership on Netflix. In a recent ranking of the most-watched English-language shows in the United States, the series secured the eighth spot, standing out as the only non-Netflix original in the top ten list.

While the future of The Resident remains uncertain, the show's newfound streaming success could potentially pave the way for a revival. Past instances, such as the resurgence of the legal drama Suits on Netflix leading to a spinoff, demonstrate the impact of streaming platforms on the fate of TV shows.

Should The Resident make a comeback, the return of key cast members, particularly Matt Czuchry, would be crucial. With Czuchry's availability post his role in American Horror Story: Delicate, there is a window of opportunity for the actor to reprise his role as Conrad Hawkins.

While landing in the top ten rankings is a positive sign, sustained viewership and continued popularity will be essential factors in determining the show's future. Networks like Fox may take notice if The Resident maintains its position in the rankings, potentially leading to a revival or continuation of the series.

As fans eagerly await news of The Resident's fate, the show's unique blend of medical drama and personal narratives continues to resonate with audiences, offering a compelling glimpse into the complexities of the healthcare industry and the lives of those who navigate it.
