Hey all, sorry no posts from me recently, but at least you didn't have to read all my depraved thoughts. ;-) Seriously, I guess I found it hard to say much about 'The Harvest' -- I'm going to have to put this one in one of the weaker episode categories. I enjoyed it, mind you, but it didn't keep my attention. But 'Wipe Out' managed to continue the heavy sci-fi trend and keep it interesting. I still miss the 'my so-called life' writing style, and really value it any time it is re-introduced. I wasn't expecting to see Nicolas (sp?) and his cronies in this one, as I thought they were as 'good as dead' in the Harvest? Interesting how they've used the Nicolas character differently from the books. ('The Wild One', I think it was.) Although I couldn't see Isabel falling for the TV Nicolas. As far as the skins disintegrating only in other alien's hands -- and Liz -- that is an interesting observation. She also seems to be the only one that gets the flashes as well. Kyle also stated that he did not see anything when being healed by Max. So what makes Liz so special? Personally, I'd give Harvest a 2 out of 5 stars, and Wipe Out 3 out of 5 stars. Comments? - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Visit http://www.xmission.com/~btvs/roswell/ for help and info. - ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2000 08:08:36 -0800 (PST) From: Chantel Reynolds <chantel_reynolds@yahoo.com> Subject: RE: [roswell] last nites ep. > > Personally, I'd give Harvest a 2 out of 5 stars, and > Wipe Out 3 out of 5 > stars. Comments? Hey Mike, I was wondering where you'd been! I might be in the minority here, but Wipe Out had some seriously bad sf going on, plus some bizarre dialogue. That being said, because it's Roswell, I could suspend disbelief for the hour needed and still had a good time with the episode. I particularly enjoyed how this episode featured all the female characters in roles other than traditional arm candy. With all the talk of the young bride and the bethrothed, I was beginning to think that the women were there to simply be attractive and gaze adoringly. But that scene in the bathroom with Courtney--I haven't seen a more effective interrogation team in a long time. Contrast that scene with Max and Michael pacing around on the balcony snarling at each other, which doesn't exactly get the job done. (In fact, the only males who were truly effective were Nikolas in his evil teenager role and Kyle who had me crying from laughter.) The women just simply took care of business, and the cheesy Firestarter imagery aside, I am a big fan of Tess now. From the moment she walked through the back door of the Crashdown, she had herself in control and indispensible. Anyway, that was I enjoyed from WipeOut. I hope we see episodes that give everybody more active, capable roles. I hate to see either the girls or the guys relegated to stereotypical, silly roles.

(Meet the Dups) > Hey Mike, I was wondering where you'd been! Hey there! > I might be in the minority here, but Wipe Out had some > seriously bad sf going on, plus some bizarre dialogue. What about Meet the Dups? I'm not too sure about this episode. I think the jury is still out on this one, for me. I had problems understanding whether or not this parallel-universe gang was really the other 4, and what in the world they were saying, and it was just too bizarre for me. ('Word?') The only thing I recall that seemed nice, was the Maria/Brody relationship. But if things go the way they have been this season, that'll be long forgotten in the next episode or two. > Contrast that scene with Max and Michael > pacing around on the balcony snarling at each other, > which doesn't exactly get the job done. That's another pet peeve of mine, particularly this season. How can the audience get involved in the characters -- that are supposed to be at war and always on the run -- if those 4 main characters are not as close as they can possibly be? In other words, too much internal dissent and division. I hope the killing alternate-Max was not an omen of the future. I noticed what you did too, starting with Skin And Bones -- why are Isabel and Tess always bra-less and/or used as male bait? Oh well. Anyone know the synopsis for the next episode? - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Visit http://www.xmission.com/~btvs/roswell/ for help and info. - ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2000 22:02:29 -0700 From: "laura" <sleepingfaery@home.com> Subject: Re: [roswell] last nites ep.

The one part where there is a #2 set of the royal four. Well I think that there were two sets made just in case one set did not make it. Then there was one set put one side of the country and one set on the other. Like when the NY royal four killed the #2 max because he would not go to the meeting. So They went to get the other max to see if he would be any different. They were hoping if he was then they could return to their home planet.

(Meet the Dups) In response to Laura, Liz -- Out of character, hello, I'm totally with you. This is getting retarded. The writers need to, at least, let someone on the show figure something out. Are they all that dense?!!!?? Max has a lot on his mind, but we all know that he should pursue Liz's knowledge of the granolith. He never quit pursuing Liz before. A bone, please?!??!? And...the car scene from WO, Liz needs to tell Max and as Laura stated, blah, blah, blah. Obviously, the point went mute. I saw the preview where everyone finds out about Liz and Kyle's illeged romp. Maybe the writers will help Max and Maria GET SMART. Again, just a bone of hope would be good. Max (Zan) -- not wanting to go to the summit...please clue me in also. The four dupes -- Perhaps they took the bus?? Concorde? Taxi? Go cart? And parents/guardians? Yes, the general public loves to watch little kids wander around town, ALONE! Plus, dupe Michael's NY accent, where was it? The leadership -- sort of wondered about that myself. For example, Michael's hair seems to be the current joke, but did anyone notice future-Max's whole head? I mean, are we talking biker planet or what? Max in the big apple -- OK, I'll entertain the crew for a mere second. Max has had some serious blows, so I'm sure he's thinking, "I'm going to another freak show, because the current one I'm in just isn't working." For example, Liz betrayed him, sort of. Maria told him to back off from the only person he's ever truly loved. Michael doesn't listen to anyone. And...Max was beat to shreds by his non-sister. And Tess, well, don't get me started. So, I don't blame him too much. I'd get the heck out of dodge too. But, what happened to, "We all have to stay together? We're stronger as four." ????? Overall, I give the ep a five out of ten. I think that there are too many unanswered questions and that's not always bad. But, I think that the dupes might constitute another series or show. Personally, I'll stick with the current one at hand. The season, well, the writers are doing a great job, despite my opinion of the dupes ep. The acting is and has been great. - -----Original Message----- From: laura [mailto:sleepingfaery@home.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2000 11:02 PM To: roswell@lists.xmission.com Subject: Re: [roswell] last nites ep.

You guys bring up some great questions, especially about the NYFour--who brought them there, why, how were they raised, etc? I am hoping those will be answered in the next episode, since this was a TBC. As far as Zan not wanting to go to the summit. Honestly, I think it's because, like Max, he was happy with his life as is. The summit would force a change that he didn't want. I mean, let's look at it from the other side for a second: if Max and the others knew there was another set, and that set could save the planet, don't you think Isabel and Max might have been content to say, "Oh hey, great, then I can have my normal Leave It To Beaver life back"? I think Max would jump at the chance because he has NOT been happy about all this destiny, save the world, hoopla. Chantel __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

(Plus..Brendan(My fave canadian) trying that New York accent was funny) P.S. Katherine was absolutely amazing!

(Meet the Dups) On the message problem - I am also not receiving all the messages, but then I thought maybe all the people who have been making comments in the past may not be now, so I kind of just wait for messages to pop up when they may. Yes, I agree the there are many unanswered questions, but I still enjoy every new minute of the second season. I am in love with the characters - yes, they are all good looking actors, but I fell in love with the show and its beautiful story (love and sci-fi). The actors on the show have brought the characters to life, its great to watch and learn about it all. (sorry, I started to ramble here . . . ) Okay - I want to ask if anybody is wondering about Liz's character? I want to somehow believe that Grandma Claudia had an encounter with the original surviving aliens from the crash. They entrusted her with saving another half human/alien baby because they saw she (Grandma Claudia) was open and intelligent and would help the aliens to survive. Liz has so many of the same traits as Max and they send each other visions when they connect - none of the others do, which I find kind of weird. Did Max have a true love (Liz?) on his home planet? Was his bride to be (Tess) an arranged marriage? My mind is going in all kinds of story lines. I just hope the writers will take the story to new heights. One thing I thought was funny was when Tess met her dupe - they did not communicate with each other like the others. I wish Max could have met Zan - and by the way - what happened with Zan's body? Could they have healed it with the stones? Is the body still in New York? Oh, yeah - why did Tess put a "Z" on the wall in her room? Did she already know about Zan? Did Nasedo take her to meet the second group of podsters in New York at one point?

Hey there! Yes, I've noticed that too for a little while now. Some of the messages will drag in long after they were posted, and get sent to half the list, but not to the others. I only started noticing since I get both the digest, and the regular messages. All the messages would be in the digest. So I'll look into getting that fixed for us! > -Liz -- she is being so out of character and it is driving me nuts. i > mean - last week - in the car as they were driving out of town to the > billboard - she starts freaking out with the "i have to tell max > what really happened!" To me, the whole show has been out of character, and they've been having too many of these 'gimmicky' episodes. Of course, I realize once they go (went) full-blown sci-fi, it shouldn't be considered gimmicky anymore, but still... Regarding Liz, yes, I imagine she's going to break down pretty quick and tell Max all, and ruin the future [once again]. > and then not tellinh her best friend about Kyle, or about > Micheal kissing her? come on - that is just too > off You're right, this makes absolutely no sense at all. Again, I think the main characters are not close enough for the audience to get involved with them. It was always a bit strained in the first season, but there has been no growth in this area. If this were Seinfeld (a bunch of dysfunctional friends that the audience can relate to), that'd be one thing, but this is supposed to be a close-knit team that are in danger at all times, because of who they are and/or their knowledge. So that'd be my main complaint at the moment. > - What was the reason Max #2 didn't want to go to the summit > anyway? did i miss it or didn't they say? I don't think they ever said, but like our Michael and Max, apparently alternate-Michael and -Max cannot get along. > -how did the four of the other aliens get to new york? they - as 7 year > olds - what? walked there? This is problem #2 with Roswell this season: too little establishing information and exposition. Yes, we did know about the other 4 pods, but, at least for me, not enough time to bring the audience up to speed on this. Plus, it's a big shocker to see their alters. (Plus, were they raised by a bunch of hyenas, or are all New Yorkers like this? I didn't think so!) In concept, it wasn't a bad story, but it leads me to believe that our gang -- that we like to watch -- has some pretty 'defective' problems, if the alternates are representative of the rest of their own personalities. > and why wouldn't nacedo have had them ( the #2's) too? he couldn't find > Max, Iz, or Michael, until recently -- but leaders from another > planet were able to find the other four? and invite them to a summit? and > how did the #2's know about Maz, etc? Well, I don't believe the whole summit thing one iota. I think it's just a ploy to destroy the 'rest of' Max, for whatever reason. Perhaps it's so that Michael/Wrath can be the new leader of the planet. Beats me. But I am hoping they do explain that some other Nasedo took care of this other four. (Unless he was also killed by the Royal Four #2). > -but that brings me to - Nikolas last week said , to max " you decided the > fate of armies with a flip of a coin" - was he serious? and if yes, then > what kind of leader was he? i am starting to have some serious questions > about the people on their home world. don't sound like a very great bunch > at all......... Exactly; how are we supposed to root for our pod squad, if what they really are, aren't worth saving? I don't think the show is in such a position, and hasn't built themselves to such a position, for us to see them as souls needing redemption in human form. > okay those are my first reactions - any comments? ideas? i think i better > go and watch it again....... I think I will too. It's a harder episode to watch. It's one thing to have a two-parter, but I hope it's not going to be a bad two-parter. But I guess every season is entitled to it's weaker episodes (such as Heat Wave, from last season, or even Sexual Healing.) But am I curious; which episode do you feel is the best this season? - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Visit http://www.xmission.com/~btvs/roswell/ for help and info. - ---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ End of roswell-digest V1 #65 **************************** ---------------------------------------------------------------- Visit http://www.xmission.com/~btvs/roswell/ for help and info. ----------------------------------------------------------------
