Yeah, unfortunately "To Serve and Protect" will not be airing on Jan. 8, as originally thought. Instead, we will have to wait three more weeks for a new Roswell. I am not a happy camper. :( But at least, we're still getting new Roswells...

Date: 05 Jan 2001 19:22:56 -0800 (PST)
Dude, I bought eight of the books, and I plan to buy them all, because they're Roswell, but I will never, ever read them. Why? Because the books suck! I can't get over it! My biggest problem: Max is blond. My second biggest problem: Ulysses F. Olsen (UFO) High School--how cheesebally is that? For crying out loud! And the story itself, despite that it's creative, is just horribly written. An eight-year-old could have written the sentences. Plus, the story, although creative, is way too farfetched. It's just bizarre and totally bogus... My third biggest problem: If Liz is hispanic, why isn't her name Isabel???? Cuz Isabel is so the Spanish version of Liz. Her sister had a Spanish name--why wouldn't Liz? See, little things like this just contribute even more to the overall dumbness. And the whole aura and scent thing--I just can't stand that--it's so hoky. But, anyway, that's just my opinion. If you really like the show, don't read the books; they're just bad. And I know, since I haven't actually read the books, what right to I have to say this? But I've read enough of the books, just a few pages of each, to know that they are so not worth the read for people who like to read well-written, intelligent stories. But if you're all for trashy novels and the like, I say go for it--who am I to judge?

Oooh, what a stinging reply. The actual point of my e-mail was not which came first, but that the books are badly written. They're about as well-written as those Goosebumps books-remember those? When I read the first chapter of the first books, it so reminded me of the writing style of the Goosebumps books. And me finding the whole aura thing hoky has nothing to do with the show. If the show never existed, and I had just happened to pick up the first book, I still couldn't have read it--it's just way too cheesy. And I was just trying to be humorous, saying I had a problem with Max being blond, but apparently, I'm the only one who finds myself humorous--which really isn't news to me. Anyway, my point is, the books are bad because of the writing style and the cheesy little details inserted (ie UFO High), and I just can't stand that aura thing, but that's probably just me. So, hate me, call me stupid, I don't care. I am not ashamed of shelling out money for the books even though I don't wanna read them--I am compulsively obsessed with Roswell. And these are my opinions. I do realize that without the books there would be no show, but now that there is a show, there is really no need to read the books--IMHO (and a very humble opinion it is--believe me).

"Some people are just pigs."~Liz Parker... Isabel Evans
I think I have like the first 2 books in the series. True, the show is based
on the books, but you can tell hey only used the books as foundation because
there are so many differences. The way they wrote the books are kinda crappy
like since its a TV show now, everyone will buy the books no matter what
because they have the cast on the cover. That was my 1st mistake.
Like for instance, Max has blond hair, and Isabel gets a love interest
who happens to be another alien ( with the personality of Michael and the
charm of Max to the one-hundredth power) and she of course, chooses him over
Alex. Then the guy gets killed in mall or something and one of the people
from town who also happens to be an alien helps them cover it up in the mall.
The books are a good idea, but I thought they would be a good way for
me to catch up on stuff I missed, but I like the show better than the books.
Who knows? U might like them.

i read all ten of the Roswell High books and i reallly liked them. Yea
they're a lot different from the show but they came first so its
understandable. I thought it was intresting to read the books and then see
how the got ideas for the show and what ideas the got rid of (if youve read
the books: nicholasis always and alien with a relationship w/isabel)
anyway these are just my thoughts. You have to read the books to find out for
youself if you like em or not
So Long!

Dude, they couldn't have taken their human form from somebody alive in '47, because they were already developing when the ship crashed! Even if it that's how it ends up to be explained on the show--it's not possible! They were engineered to look a certain way before they came to earth. Anyway, the ship crashed, so we don't even know where they were actually supposed to end up. Apparently not Roswell. I know that's semi-irrelevant, but I wanna know where they were going! Cuz they weren't going to Roswell; that's just where they crashed--they didn't crash on purpose. Plus, it was just Michael--there's supposed to be something special about Michael, that makes him "different" from the other three. Whatever... it looks freakish, and there's no way it's gonna live up to the Christmas episode. ::sigh:: I was actualy naive enough to believe it would get better after they got rid of the "dupes."

Ok this is for everyone who doesn't know who Krakow is. The guy that is playing Maria's cousin also played a guy named Brian Krakow on My So Called Life. Do you remember that show with Claire Danes? It was on MTV for awhile. So thats why people are calling him Krakow cause that was his name on that other show. Don't worry you guys didn't miss anything.

Maybe Brendan was busy doing something else so they hardly included him in the show. I'm sure he'll have more scenes in the next episode, so don't worry.

Dude, Grant is evil! I knew it all along. He tried to kill Laurie (or torture her or whatever), Max, Valenti, and Isabel--who he was apparently sweet on. What an ass! However, I would have been happier if he had just stayed disappeared without an explanation for his disappearance, because I really hate him! I mean, it was wonderfully dumb of them to have Grant disappear after "Surprise," but no Grant with no explanation is far better than the return of Grant.
I am just so happy that Krakow is on what used to be the sci-fi "My So-Called Life." Maybe he can help turn it around, even though his character seems like a loser. Oh, well, a girl can dream, can't she?
I so don't get how they could possibly explain this hybrid shit in a way that makes sense. It's just dumb, especially Liz and Kyle being "changed." So what exactly happened to all those kids at the hospital, then? HUH?! Anyway, I don't like it. And I was thinking, if the aliens can produce human DNA, then they could produce any kind of human DNA they wanted and they wouldn't have to actually steal it from an actual human. Or maybe that's too far-fetched. But I feel the need to bring up the point that the ship *crashed* which implies an accident of some kind, which implies that the aliens weren't heading for New Mexico in the first place. I'm not sure how that fits into the whole human DNA thing, but I'll get back to you on that. That's it from this girl. Later days.

Oh, god, I don't actually *care* what happens with the kids; I was just pointing out how stupid this whole the humans have become aliens thing is. 'Sides, I really hope they don't go into it with the kids; it'll just make it even more stupid. The thing I was hoping people would respond to was the fact that they *crashed* but that seems to mean nothing to anyone. So that's it from this girl.
