Did you think that sending nuts to CBS to save Jericho was innovative? Well, fans of the TV show Roswell sent Tobasco to the WB by the caseload. And I was one of those people. I sent my bottle all the way from Canada. Roswell opened me up to a new genre of shows that I had no idea I loved - teen angst sci fi. If it wasn’t for Roswell I never would have discovered Buffy or Angel (two of my all-time favourites) and it if wasn’t for Roswell’s executive producer Jason Katims, I may not have Friday Night Lights (which he also produces and is my favourite show of all time). I owe a lot Roswell, which is why I’m reviewing for the Summer DVD Book Club here at thetwocents.com.

Roswell is about 3 teens (a brother and sister and their best friend) who were found walking in the desert as children. They were all adopted or placed in foster care and went about living life in Roswell, New Mexico with nobody knowing that they were actually aliens. But one day one of them uses his alien powers to save a girl’s life… and the real drama begins.
Here’s a list of the characters you will need to know in order to follow along.
Max Evans played by Jason Behr
Liz Parker played by Shiri Appleby
Isabel Evans played by Katherine Heigl
Michael Guerin played by Brendan Fehr
Maria DeLuca played by Majandra Delfino
Kyle Valenti played by Nick Wechsler
Sheriff Jim Valenti played by William Sadler
Alex Whitman played by Colin Hanks
Tess played by Emilie de Raven
If you watch any top 10 TV show chances are you recognize some of the actors on this show. (Emilie de Raven’s on Lost, Katherine Heigl’s on Grey’s, Brendan Fehr’s on CSI Miami). Now’s your chance to see where they got their first TV shot. Roswell was worth watching then and almost 10 years later, it’s still worth watching. The first episode I’ll be reviewing is the Pilot. Please feel free to ad your twocents in the comments of any of my reviews!
Roswell was my first fandom show, and I am so glad to see it being revived a little bit. [Even though my favorite characters/actors haven't reached mainstream consumption yet.]
ReplyDeleteI loved Roswell. It seems that my favorite shows from when I was younger are being reviewed and I can't wait!
