The medical drama The Resident was set to air a two-hour finale last Tuesday night, but will now air only next week, Tuesday, January 17 at 8 p.m., according to Deadline. The debut of the fourth season of 9-1-1: Lone Star now takes place on Tuesday, January 24 at 8 p.m., followed by the series premiere of Accused (US) at 9 p.m.
The roster change is a result of the State of the Union and current problems in Congress. The network wants to broadcast the fourth season of 9-1-1: Lone Star uninterrupted.
Starring Rob Lowe, Gina Torres, Ronen Rubinstein, Sierra McClain, Jim Parrack, Natacha Karam, Brian Michael Smith, Rafael Silva, Julian Works and Brianna Baker, the series follows the lives of first responders in Austin, Texas.
As for The Resident, FOX has not yet renewed that series for a seventh season, so the sixth-season finale could also become the medical drama's series finale.
Starring Matt Czuchry, Manish Dayal, Bruce Greenwood, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Jane Leeves, Anuja Joshi, Jessica Lucas, Miles Fowler, Kaley Ronayne and Andrew McCarthy, the series follows the lives of the staff of a fictional Atlanta hospital.
