Okay so dont be arrogant and automatically hate this show because it's a remake. First of all, in the book that it's based off, Liz is a Latina and not whitewashed like they did in the original. Also, Roswell, New Mexico's pilot was great and it wasn't cheesy like the original pilot in 1999. Give it a chance and STOP COMPARING!!! Also Roswell, New Mexico has a lot of familiar actors that you might recognize so it's interesting to watch and for the story and it's better that they're adults and not stupid teenagers.
