Roswell, New Mexico debuts on The CW tonight at 9p and you are going to want to check out this remake. Now having said that last word, I will admit I never watched the original series. Therefore, I cannot compare the two. What I can tell you is that I am already hooked on the Sci-Fi drama after watching the first three episodes.
Roswell, New Mexico is famous place because some say a UFO crashed down on the small town in 1947. The legend still exists until this day, but did it happen? Only three people know the truth and they are the aliens that grew up in the town and assimilated with the townspeople.
Liz (Jeanine Mason) left there shortly after her sister died in a drunk driving accident that killed two other girls from the town. Since that day, everyone has hated her family. Therefore, it seems strange that she would return on the 10th anniversary of that accident.
As soon as she gets home, she goes to visit her dad at the dinner that he owns. She let’s him go home early and her childhood friend, who has feelings for her, shows up. As Max (Nathan Parsons) and Liz are talking, someone shoots up the dinner in revenge for that night. Liz has been shot and Max must do something extraordinary to save her life. By doing this he has exposed himself to her, but she does not know this because she was dead at the time it happened.
The two other aliens, who came to Earth with Max, are mad at him for exposing their secret. The three of them have done everything to hide their true identities and now Max might have ruined everything. Isobel (Lily Cowles) and Michael (Michael Vlamis) have very different ways on how they want to handle the situations. Whose way will win out? Or will Max’s way be the way that works out for all of them?
Even though the three of them have been good at concealing their identity, some of the people in the town will suspect that there are aliens living amongst them. Will they be able to figure out who they are? Especially since they are getting outside help?
I recently watched three episodes of a show and still have no idea what is going on. Roswell, New Mexico’s story is clear and interesting. You want to know what happens next because within minutes you find yourself invested in these characters and the story they have to tell.
