I live in Brisbane, Australia and up until Roswell premiered i had never heard of Dido before. But i fell in love with the song straight away. But I have yet to hear it played on the radio. "Here With Me" is an awesome song and I love the rest of Dido's songs too. I have not been able to find Dido's album, but i downloaded all her songs in mp3 format. So i can listen to them whenever i'm at my comp. Not as good as the actual cd, but hey....it still rocks! Ang. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Writers haven't worked too hard to make me like her yet. She just seemed a little desperate to get Max's approval. It will be interesting to see if the writers invest more time in her character.

Seeing an actual person who told them she was their mother made a big impact on Iz, I think. She can't confide in her earth mother, so I think she's holding this image on a pedastal of this alien mother who will truly be everything she wants. That's just MO, though. > > I'm seriously going to miss Nasedo. Nearly every > truly funny line in this episode came from him. > So true!

The day Max healed liz started everything.

I'm starting to sympathize with her character a bit more each time I watch/rewatch an episode. There's been a lot of speculation on the boards about the Tess/Max/Liz triangle, and lots of people have wondered if Max & Tess might become intimate as part of this whole Destiny thing. Several people have indicated they would stop watching the show if that happened and bemoaned the destruction of the Max/Liz relationship in that scenario. Obviously lots of people would be crushed over it, but many think that Max/Liz would still eventually get back together. But very few people, if any, seem to consider how this all might affect Tess. Look at it from her point of view. What if you finally got the man of your dreams (perhaps in her case literally), you slept together, and then he leaves for another woman? The prevailing attitude is that Tess deserves whatever she gets, and I don't think that's fair. know nothing about the > "skins" Nasedo could have > helped in some way. . Yes, the "welcome to the burgeoning club of I know an alien" crack was a scream. He was always a great source of humor. However, I have a slight beef with Nasedo. Evidently after becoming Pierce, he went straight back to Washington, and the Pod People, as he called them, were left hanging all summer. Did he take ANY time to tell them about life on the home world? ANY time to give them more information on the war that enslaved that world? Hell, what about simply telling them the NAME of this home world? I would be happy with a name! > > i really > didn't need to know about > nasedo as pirce have intament sessions with > that congress woman. . . Yeah, the idea of Nasedo and the Congresswoman was a bit icky, simply because Nasedo was such a lech about it. The only reason for telling the Six and the viewers about it was to let us all know that sex between humans and aliens is quite possible. But Maria caught on pretty quick to the implications of that with her birth control comment--maybe Nasedo couldn't impregnate a woman because he was fully alien, but Max & Michael certainly could. I am so happy the fall season has arrived! Chantel __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I watched the season premiere last night, anticipating it like all you guys. I have to say though, even though I still love the show, I was kinda let down. First off, I must say that everyone looked great, with the exemption of Brendan and majandra's hair. I thought Shiri and Kate looked really pretty, per usual and the guys looked really hot too. I even have to admit that Tess did not bother me nearly as much as she did at the end of last season. Maybe she really has accepted that Max will never be with her. Overall it was OK, I hated the fact that all the couples weren't together :( Just for some reason it had a different "feel" to it. It just seemed a little darker and moodier. Although it was nice to see them acting a little more like a group instead of three and three. I'm still going to watch most definitely, but I thought it was a little bit of a disappointment.

        Poor Liz- = how evil of Max was that to put his hand on her arm in the last = scene...she saw all the feelings and things they did when they were today...so = evil (grin)

In random order: 1) I hate both Maria's and Michael's hair - and what was up with her 70's chick makeup? Terrible. 2) Tess was far more tolerable - nigh on likable, though I was still gratified that Max isn't even considering being with her. And Nasedo was actually very amusing, and I hated him last year! I also have to agree with whoever said that the "Agent Pierce" body was hot when he was trying to seduce the congresswoman. :) 3) The scenes of Max/Nasedo and Michael/Valenti were interesting. There was a "father/son" dynamic with both sets (though somewhat distorted in the M/N set) that I wouldn't have expected, and the Mi/V scene was particularly touching - Valenti seemed very understanding of Michael's feelings, and Michael really opened up to him. 4) I don't know why people are so annoyed by Courtney - she was just acting like a normal person as far as I can tell, and while she did flirt with Michael, he didn't seem to respond at all (aside perhaps from simply noticing that she was flirting with him). Maria's jealousy was cute. 5) Grant is not all that cute, though he seemed nice enough. He didn't seem to be really interested in Isabel in that way, though she definitely was - the age difference, no doubt. 6) Isabel seems a lot more secure in herself, despite the alien's relative lack of knowledge about what needs to be done. 7) Where the heck did this "king" and "royal four" thing come from? It must have been established during the summer - perhaps Nasedo told them that. 8) Loved the Maria / Max friendship thing they had going on - despite the romantic problems, Maria and Alex obviously grew closer to Max and Isabel over the summer. Michael, on the other hand, seems to be growing farther apart. Tess has obviously not bonded with anyone except POSSIBLY Michael, though even they didn't seem close. She was almost pathetic, trying to get Max's approval with hiding him from the people at the lab. 9) Both the deputy and the congresswoman seemed rather cartoonish to me. 10) Where the heck was Kyle?!? 11) Plot holes. The Physics class thing bothered me, as did the quick switch from "maybe it's going to this lab" to "it's definitely going to be at this lab tomorrow" - when did they get confirmation? The congresswoman was a little too sure that aliens were involved, and the deputy always had the EXACT worst thing to say at any given moment. And the big one - I'm sorry, but carbon dating can only establish the age of items within a range of thousands of years - not even within decades, much less enough precision to say "42 years"! All in all, I give the episode mixed reviews. It certainly setup the upcoming year well, but at times the writing didn't seem up to its normal standard, and sometimes the show simply didn't feel like "Roswell". There were, however, a number of scenes that gave me hope, so I'm reserving judgement until next week.
