Didn't think so. :) Thoroughly enjoyable episode -- probably even more fast paced than the pilot episode, "Roswell High." Looks like the "Sexual Healing" episode spilled over just a bit into this episode with all the face 'suckage,' but what happened with the conclusion? I was expecting a parent-child lecture of some sort after Liz and Max walked in the Cafe to see their parents waiting for them. There wasn't even a mention of any repercussions because of it. Anyhoo, like Liz, I was very trusting of what Topolsky had to say and was not believing of the doctor at all. I think it's safe to say the next thing we hear about Topolsky is her body being discovered somewhere. I was glad to see that the Sheriff is proving to be a true ally of the gang, but I feel he too was duped at the end by Nacedo-Doctor. The only problem with that, is how was it possible that the Sheriff was fed so much bogus information, and believed it all? How could Nacedo pull all that off? Does he too manage to work under cover, and the FBI doesn't even know his true identity? And what's going to happen to Valenti now that he has the orb-communication-thingy-majig? I'm also curious if anyone knows what the ratings were for the show tonight? I'd definitely give this episode a 9.0 out of 10, and not getting the full 10 because of the lack of closure from the previous episode, and for making us think it was Tess that was causing all this commotion. *Never* trust the promos. :) - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Visit http://www.xmission.com/~btvs/roswell/ for help and info. - ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2000 23:03:02 -0400 From: "kaycomp" Subject: [roswell] SPOILERS: Thoughts and observations about "Crazy" This is a multi-part message in MIME format. - ------=_NextPart_000_0023_01BFA340.EC6771E0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hey Guys, Firstly, how great was it to finally see a new episode?! It seems the = buildup to this episode was greater than any before. I have to admit = that I was one of the people who was very concerned with the new = "direction" the show was going to take. While I enjoy the science = fiction aspect of the show, it=92s the little relationship moments that = have really touched me beyond belief. However, the writers proved how = capable and in tune with the characters they really are with tonight=92s = episode. After seeing this, I can see the initial vision of the show a = little clearer. Tonight was the first time that I honestly felt it was = "The X Files crosses Dawsons Creek" and I for one am loving it.The = episode was so amazing! Here are some thoughts and observations: 1) I really liked the "Previously seen on Roswell" clips that started = the show. It was a great set of clips and a good "cliff notes" version = for new viewers. If that montage of scenes doesn't get people in, = nothing will.=20 2) Couples in Roswell: Nothing is ever simple, is it? The three main = couples really are vastly different and it's obvious in how they're = handling the Topolsky/FBI/alien-human relations situation. A) Liz and Max: Ahhh, the quiet before the storm. Max and Liz were = so sweet tonight and very "couple-y" It was good to see some continuity = between "Sexual Healing" and "Crazy" which is something that the writers = have been a little laxed about. It was also interesting to see Max and = Liz disagree about the Topolsky/trust issue and it was even better to = see neither one back down. I was afraid that Liz would cower a little = but she stood her ground. It's obvious their love runs deep and that Liz = is really scared for Max and what could potentially always be a threat = to his life...his very existence. It's so obvious how deep their = connection runs; it almost seems eternal. It was so nice to see, even if = for one episode, what it would be like for Max and Liz to be a normal = couple. B) Maria and Michael: It was good to see them in the contrast to = Max and Liz. Max and Liz are so perfectly matched. Both are honor = students, both are pretty "play by the rules" kind of people, both are = incredibly rational. Then there's Michael and Maria who at times have = this great symbiotic relationship and then the next instance are like = oil and water. Watching them is like watching a roller coaster ride with = its ups and downs constantly changing the equilibrium of things. This = works for them in a big way. Majandra and Brendan were incredible = tonight. The wanting on Maria's part to have what Max and Liz have, the = desperation on Michael's part to try and accomodate her, the bickering, = the caring, and finally the culminating scene in the woods where Maria = WOULD not leave Michael even if it meant she would be hurt. Great scene, = very revealing in many ways of how they really feel about each other. = Awesome acting! C) Alex and Isabel. There is so much potential there. They are = both really fascinating characters. Isabel is such a hard one to figure = out. One thing is for certain. Isabel is lonely. Lonely for friendship, = for someone to love her, for someone to understand her, but most = importantly, lonely for someone to want to know her back. I imagine = she's used to people wanting to know her because she's pretty and = popular(though we've never seen her with "friends" other than in the Toy = House, her popularity is alluded to many times throughout the series) no = one really has ever wanted to know the real her. That's sort of why the = Alex/Isabel relationship is so ripe. Alex is in a completely different = clique of students yet has the same isolation issues that Isabel has. = Not many people want to get to know Alex either. He's not overly popular = or smart, he's just average. I hope Isabel and Alex can persevere. 3) Topolsky, the aliens' safety and these "alien hunters": Just had to = say that Julie Benz was awesome tonight. Her trepidation and fear were = palpable. I have read some spoilers, not all, so I'm not completely sure = where this is leading. I do know that I don't trust anyone! I do think = that the aliens will have to come to a decision within themselves, = especially Michael and Isabel about trusting the humans completely. Max = trusts Liz implicitly and I honestly feel as if he trusts Alex and Maria = too(he said it in tonights episode but I think he really believes it = too). Michael and Isabel still have the "aliens vs. humans" mentality = and that has to change if they all want to stay safe. Very scary stuff = tonight though. Topolsky, Valenti, Pierce, Nasedo...everyone is suspect = and no one's intentions seem obvious anymore. Can't wait to see this pan = out. Two interesting quotes: A) "It's not 3 and 3 Michael, it's the 6 of us" -Liz. This is definetly = an interesting line (can someone smell the foreshadowing?) and one that = will prove harder to live by as time goes on I'm sure. It's great that = these three aliens love these three humans but will they ever be six? = Will they ever be able to find this true common ground? I love Max and = Liz so much and I want to see them happy, but their differences become = more of an obstacle every time they're together. Yes they love each = other, yes they feel complete when they're together, but as you can see = from the previews to next week's show, these things can be fleeting. = It's all a lot to process. What do you guys think? B) "I just really want this to be over with" -Maria. Another interesting = line and one that shows how young and perhaps naive Maria and Liz are. = This line disturbed me a little because it shows that Maria doesn't (or = won't) fully comprehend the complexity and severity of the situation. = Michael will never stop being an alien and she'll never stop being a = human. "This" will never be over.=20 4) Tess: Ah, the Tess person. To be honest and I swear I'm not saying = this as a Max and Liz shipper, I really didn't like her introduction = into the Pod Squad. It felt incredibly forced to me. Isabel is so = guarded and has that wall up just as high, if not higher than Michael's = and yet she so quickly embraced Tess? I know she's lonely but it still = seemed slightly out of character for her. Also, I didn't find her sweet = at all, I found her treacly. I think the actress playing her is really = cute though but not the type of character I would have liked to see come = in between Max and Liz. My feeling is, if you're going to attempt to = stir the pot of a couple(which is what Tess is going to do) then you = have to at least have a character as interesting or likeable as the = person she/he is trying to replace. Based on tonight, I didn't feel it. = I'm hoping that this will change as time goes by but I want her to at = least be a viable candidate for Max's heart. Otherwise, it's all pretty = superfluous for me and it's all about waiting for Max and Liz to find = their way back to each other. Any thoughts?=20 5) The transition to science fiction: What I loved about this episode = was how well balanced it truly was. Not since the pilot, have I felt = this enthusiastic about the science fiction of the story. Usually I am = more intrigued by the hand holding scene in "Sexual Healing" between Max = and Liz or the bed scene between Maria and Michael in "Independence Day" = but tonight I was really into the entire episode. This show continues to = amaze me with it's writing staff and it's actors and how smoothly they = make the transition between drama and comedy, bravery and fear, all in = one episode. This was an incredibly taut episode and I am confident that = they will be able to sustain this for years to come! (optimism up. = American flag waving. "Star Spangled Banner playing in the background. A = thinly veiled plea to write more letters and send more sauce. I will = stop now) :) 6) Weekly Shallow Post: Everyone looked amazing tonight. I have never = seen Shiri look better! Maria and Isabel looked beautiful as well. = Michael, gotta love a guy in a bandana. Alex is just always adorable. = Jason. Oh my! I'm going to refrain from gushing here but I will say that = I think he's the best looking man I have ever seen! I also loved the = Cameron Diaz in "Being John Malkovich" wig that Topolsky wore to the = Chinese restaurant. For a minute there I thought something was going to = fly out of it!=20 Again, an incredible episode and definetly worth the wait! If this show = does not get renewed, then I know that there is no longer room on = television for quality writing, quality acting and quality = entertainment. Keep writing those letters!! Take care! Gina :) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^= ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^= ^^^^ "...These things I should keep to myself, but I feel somehow strangely = compelled.

I cannot post too much today b/c I am falling asleep at my desk...(long week/weekend). Anyway, I loved the scenes with M&L, but the scene with Mike & Maria when Maria was crying really got to me as well. Maria really cares for him and Majandra did a beautiful job of portraying a very emotionally distraught Maria DeLuca. Maria seemed rather distant the entire episode as opposed to her usual perky, forth-right self. I Loved that. I also cared for the desert scenes a great deal because it was the first time all six of them were there together. Very moving moments there. I hope Isabel and Alex take things slow and eventually form a tight bond, whether it be as friends, or something more, I want it to happen. Topolsky was awesome...Julie's talent is truly shining through, she is going places for sure! I am glad the sheriff is on their side.

It seems the buildup to this episode was greater than any before. I have to admit that I was one of the people who was very concerned with the new "direction" the show was going to take. While I enjoy the science fiction aspect of the show, it’s the little relationship moments that have really touched me beyond belief. However, the writers proved how capable and in tune with the characters they really are with tonight’s episode. After seeing this, I can see the initial vision of the show a little clearer. Tonight was the first time that I honestly felt it was "The X Files crosses Dawsons Creek" and I for one am loving it.The episode was so amazing! Here are some thoughts and observations: 1) I really liked the "Previously seen on Roswell" clips that started the show. It was a great set of clips and a good "cliff notes" version for new viewers. If that montage of scenes doesn't get people in, nothing will. 2) Couples in Roswell: Nothing is ever simple, is it? The three main couples really are vastly different and it's obvious in how they're handling the Topolsky/FBI/alien-human relations situation. A) Liz and Max: Ahhh, the quiet before the storm. Max and Liz were so sweet tonight and very "couple-y" It was good to see some continuity between "Sexual Healing" and "Crazy" which is something that the writers have been a little laxed about. It was also interesting to see Max and Liz disagree about the Topolsky/trust issue and it was even better to see neither one back down. I was afraid that Liz would cower a little but she stood her ground. It's obvious their love runs deep and that Liz is really scared for Max and what could potentially always be a threat to his life...his very existence. It's so obvious how deep their connection runs; it almost seems eternal. It was so nice to see, even if for one episode, what it would be like for Max and Liz to be a normal couple. B) Maria and Michael: It was good to see them in the contrast to Max and Liz. Max and Liz are so perfectly matched. Both are honor students, both are pretty "play by the rules" kind of people, both are incredibly rational. Then there's Michael and Maria who at times have this great symbiotic relationship and then the next instance are like oil and water. Watching them is like watching a roller coaster ride with its ups and downs constantly changing the equilibrium of things. This works for them in a big way. Majandra and Brendan were incredible tonight. The wanting on Maria's part to have what Max and Liz have, the desperation on Michael's part to try and accomodate her, the bickering, the caring, and finally the culminating scene in the woods where Maria WOULD not leave Michael even if it meant she would be hurt. Great scene, very revealing in many ways of how they really feel about each other. Awesome acting! C) Alex and Isabel. There is so much potential there. They are both really fascinating characters. Isabel is such a hard one to figure out. One thing is for certain. Isabel is lonely. Lonely for friendship, for someone to love her, for someone to understand her, but most importantly, lonely for someone to want to know her back. I imagine she's used to people wanting to know her because she's pretty and popular(though we've never seen her with "friends" other than in the Toy House, her popularity is alluded to many times throughout the series) no one really has ever wanted to know the real her. That's sort of why the Alex/Isabel relationship is so ripe. Alex is in a completely different clique of students yet has the same isolation issues that Isabel has. Not many people want to get to know Alex either. He's not overly popular or smart, he's just average. I hope Isabel and Alex can persevere. 3) Topolsky, the aliens' safety and these "alien hunters": Just had to say that Julie Benz was awesome tonight. Her trepidation and fear were palpable. I have read some spoilers, not all, so I'm not completely sure where this is leading. I do know that I don't trust anyone! I do think that the aliens will have to come to a decision within themselves, especially Michael and Isabel about trusting the humans completely. Max trusts Liz implicitly and I honestly feel as if he trusts Alex and Maria too(he said it in tonights episode but I think he really believes it too). Michael and Isabel still have the "aliens vs. humans" mentality and that has to change if they all want to stay safe. Very scary stuff tonight though. Topolsky, Valenti, Pierce, Nasedo...everyone is suspect and no one's intentions seem obvious anymore. Can't wait to see this pan out. Two interesting quotes: A) "It's not 3 and 3 Michael, it's the 6 of us" -Liz. This is definetly an interesting line (can someone smell the foreshadowing?) and one that will prove harder to live by as time goes on I'm sure. It's great that these three aliens love these three humans but will they ever be six? Will they ever be able to find this true common ground? I love Max and Liz so much and I want to see them happy, but their differences become more of an obstacle every time they're together. Yes they love each other, yes they feel complete when they're together, but as you can see from the previews to next week's show, these things can be fleeting. It's all a lot to process. What do you guys think? B) "I just really want this to be over with" -Maria. Another interesting line and one that shows how young and perhaps naive Maria and Liz are. This line disturbed me a little because it shows that Maria doesn't (or won't) fully comprehend the complexity and severity of the situation. Michael will never stop being an alien and she'll never stop being a human. "This" will never be over. 4) Tess: Ah, the Tess person. To be honest and I swear I'm not saying this as a Max and Liz shipper, I really didn't like her introduction into the Pod Squad. It felt incredibly forced to me. Isabel is so guarded and has that wall up just as high, if not higher than Michael's and yet she so quickly embraced Tess? I know she's lonely but it still seemed slightly out of character for her. Also, I didn't find her sweet at all, I found her treacly. I think the actress playing her is really cute though but not the type of character I would have liked to see come in between Max and Liz. My feeling is, if you're going to attempt to stir the pot of a couple(which is what Tess is going to do) then you have to at least have a character as interesting or likeable as the person she/he is trying to replace. Based on tonight, I didn't feel it. I'm hoping that this will change as time goes by but I want her to at least be a viable candidate for Max's heart. Otherwise, it's all pretty superfluous for me and it's all about waiting for Max and Liz to find their way back to each other. Any thoughts? 5) The transition to science fiction: What I loved about this episode was how well balanced it truly was. Not since the pilot, have I felt this enthusiastic about the science fiction of the story. Usually I am more intrigued by the hand holding scene in "Sexual Healing" between Max and Liz or the bed scene between Maria and Michael in "Independence Day" but tonight I was really into the entire episode. This show continues to amaze me with it's writing staff and it's actors and how smoothly they make the transition between drama and comedy, bravery and fear, all in one episode. This was an incredibly taut episode and I am confident that they will be able to sustain this for years to come! (optimism up. American flag waving. "Star Spangled Banner playing in the background. A thinly veiled plea to write more letters and send more sauce. I will stop now) :) 6) Weekly Shallow Post: Everyone looked amazing tonight. I have never seen Shiri look better! Maria and Isabel looked beautiful as well. Michael, gotta love a guy in a bandana. Alex is just always adorable. Jason. Oh my! I'm going to refrain from gushing here but I will say that I think he's the best looking man I have ever seen!
