Is The Resident new tonight on Fox? New season 3 details
Before we dive any further into this, let’s go ahead and get the bad news out of the way: For the time being, the doctors are out. The Resident is not new tonight on Fox, with the simple reason for that being that it’s Christmas Eve and this is a time when no major networks want anything to do with airing opposite some of the big stuff that is out there elsewhere in the real world. This is realistically one of the hardest times to air new programming — you are competing opposite family traditions, holiday movies, and big dinners.
While there is no new episode next week, either (it is New Year’s Eve, after all!), you are going to be seeing the show come back not too long after that. New episodes return to Fox on Tuesday, January 7, and there’s a lot for the show to address right away. Think in terms of the crazy aftermath to Conrad’s firing. How does he bounce back from that, and how can some of the other doctors help him?
