rharris-35 This is a love story, and a really good one.A love story, yeah with a really good twist, but even without the twist this is at its heart, a coming of age story and a story of love and all the crazy things we do to keep it.If you think this is a story about aliens, you are right but you're missing the bigger and better story.Grab your significant other, sit down and let the story unfold, it is well worth it.
Fleur Kremer I never heard of Roswell until last year. Revenge was aired in the Netherlands and I got a crush on Nick Wechsler (Kyle in Roswell, Jack in Revenge). I saw that his part in Roswell was big, so wanted to check it out. After watching the pilot, I immediately knew that this was a series I wanted to watch more of. After a few episodes I didn't watch for Nick anymore, but watched for the story itself (and for my favorite couple: Michael and Maria). I connected with the characters and when I saw 3x18 Graduation, I was heartbroken. Now I've bought it on DVD and I'm watching it with my younger sister. I'm also watching other movies and series now, because of Roswell. Think of 'Life Unexpected', 'State of Georgia' and so on. Each time I see one of the cast-members in something else, my heart beats faster. I just love them all (yes even Tess, no not Tess, Emelie). So if you're thinking of watching the series, keep in mind, you'll get addicted and it's normal to think about it for at least a few hours a day. ;)
Thu Dinh I would like to start this review out with saying that I really enjoyed watching Roswell. I'm really disappointed that they were only able to do three seasons. My opinion is that the storyline had great potential.First off, I would like to praise all the actors' contribution to the series. I think they managed to portray the characters in a brilliant way. Everyone except Shiri Appleby. I think they could've casted a better actor for the role o Liz. I don't know what it is... But Appleby made me want to stop watching the show during it's second season. It had nothing to do with what Liz did, it was because of how Appleby portrayed Liz. Secondly... What the writers of the show seemed to forget often were their age. The characters were portrayed as old and wise. Liz and Max early decided they were meant to be and they rushed to the alter after they graduated high school, at the age of 18. Yes, their love was beautiful and inspiring, but when you realize they're only about 15-16 years old the first season it soon becomes ridiculous. The fact that they rushed off to the alter at the age of 18 makes the end a bit... ridiculous. They were so young at that time and to think they would stick together after getting out to the "real" world seems a bit naive. So, now I'm done with the biggest issues I had with the show.I would like to praise Katherine Heigl for an EXCELLENT job. She is always excellent as an actress and there was no difference here. I did not always like her character, but she always portrayed Isabel in an amazing way. I would also like to thank the creators and the writers for giving us an amazing show. If only it could've lasted longer...
rachelpoe86 I think Roswell should be revived in some way like a movie or something I have been watching it on netflix for the last couple of days and I can't help starting it over and watching it again i want more and more and more i think it could have lasted a longer and i think there should be more to max and Liz i think the lovers of Roswell should come together and and get the producers to bring it back i need more of Jason behr. like the sexual healing episode wow why didn't they have more like that? y were there sexual scenes with everyone on the the show besides max and liz? i did not understand that at all they showed max with two women they showed Isabelle with her husband they showed Micheal and maria why why why was there not one with the two main characters the two that started the hole thing y? i want more now that TV has changed think about what they could do with this show now it's an awesome idea
