Will Fox renew The Resident?
From the season 6 finale, the resident it hadn’t been renewed for a seventh season, though fans can at least rest assured that the order was still 13 episodes, and that’s not the case since Fox dropped the order due to bad ratings. As recently as December, showrunner Andrew Chapman told a TV insider that they didn’t know about season 7 but that it was “still a possibility” and that they planned to “finish the season, but not the series” with the finale. More recently, co-creator Amy Holden Jones shared with TV Line that she has “received no indication” from Fox one way or another.
