J8888v Review of Roswell, New Mexico

Roswell, New Mexico (2019–2022)

Don't compare it and maybe they'll pull it off.

[7/10 · 16 January 2019]

I have watched the original series through maybe 5 or 6 times since it finished in 2002. The pure emotion you felt between Max and Liz on the pilot just wasn't there this time round and it's gonna be hard to beat that early 2000's soundtrack. I'm still gonna give this version a chance just by no means am I going to compare it and say it's bad because it's different. I'm sure plenty of people who have not seen this original show will enjoy it. At best I will appreciate the subtle references and homage's they will no doubt trickle throughout the show for old fans. The scene where Max heals Liz was such an iconic memory and sadly the CW's version was a little less impactful. I hope I end up enjoying the show overall though. Good luck to the Czechoslovakian sympathisers. Oh and CW, please don't mess this up.
