Fox has given a second-season pickup to medical drama series "The Resident". This marks the fourth freshman Fox drama to get a Season 2 renewal, joining "9-1-1", "The Gifted" and "The Orville", for one of the largest groups of first-year dramas to make it to Year Two at the network.

Like the other three, "The Resident" hails from Fox’s (still-sibling) 20th Century Fox TV.

“Amy, Todd and all the producers on The Resident set out to create a medical show that viewers haven’t seen before – to peel back the curtain and reveal the truth of what happens, both good and bad, behind the scenes at hospitals across the country. Clearly, they’ve succeeded,” said Fox’s president of entertainment Michael Thorn.

“Matt, Emily, Bruce, Manish, Shaunette and the show’s entire cast have turned in consistently heartfelt performances, and we are so excited to go back to Chastain Memorial for another tremendous season.”

"The Resident", which had an NFL-boosted launch on Sunday, has been an OK performer in its Monday 9 PM slot behind "Lucifer", improving the time period by +31% in Adults 18-49 vs. last season.

It is Fox’s third most watched series behind "9-1-1" and "Empire" with an average of 7.5 million viewers (most current). "The Resident" also is tied with "The Orville", "The Simpsons" and "Star", which benefited from from an "Empire" lead-in, as Fox’s third highest rated series in 18-49 behind "9-1-1" and "Empire".

"The Resident", which, along with 9-1-1, is giving Fox potential procedural franchises, is averaging more than 10 million multi-platform viewers per episode. Its penultimate episode airs tonight.

I like it. I was already hooked on Chicago Med so I didn't think I's like another medical show but this is good.
