The new medical drama will return for Season 2.
May 7, 2018
Fox announced today that The Resident has been picked up for a second season. The good news comes ahead of the medical drama's first-season finale, which is scheduled to air next week.
Debuting earlier this year as a mid-season entry, the series has been a decent performer on Monday nights. Airing at 9:00pm, it has improved the network's ratings performance in that time slot by roughly 30% compared with last year.
The Resident stars Matt Czuchry as a senior resident and Emily VanCamp as a nurse practitioner at Chastain Park Memorial Hospital. The series brings to light the hard truths about modern-day medicine - both good and bad. Some lives are saved while others are lost, but expectations will always be shattered.
Today's pickup ensures that all of Fox's new dramas for the 2017-2018 season will be coming back for a second run. This includes The Gifted, The Orville, and 9-1-1.

I watch medical dramas greys, Chicago med, and the resident. Between the resident and Chicago med they both seem more realistic than greys. Greys is more about personal relationships than medical I feel. I’m a fan of Matt czuchry since Gilmore girls and the good wife and Emily VanCamp since revenge. Hope lane gets caught along with Bell.

I can't see watching season 2 if Bell and Lane don't get busted. But then who is going to be the bad guy?
