Roswell

Season 1 | Season 2 |
Season 3 | Cast |

In this coming-of-age sci-fi drama based on the book series Roswell High by Melinda Metz, ordinary small town girl Liz Parker (Shiri Appleby) finds her world thrown upside down when the mysterious Max Evans (Jason Behr) saves her life. Things go from weird to weirder when Liz discovers Max, his sister Isabel (Katherine Heigl) and their friend Michael (Brendan Fehr) are all aliens. As Liz's regular teenage life collides with Max's otherworldly one, they discover things not only about Max's past, but themselves, as their love sets in motion a series events that bring six teenagers together, changing all of their lives forever.

It's a little bit Twilight, a little bit X-Files, and undeniably silly, but it's got a lot of heart. Also starring a pre-fame Colin Hanks and a host of other familiar faces, Roswell's role as a genre-bending tale of identity and love has earned it a place in the WB's hall of fame.
