Opening with a Dido theme song and featuring character-driven, sweet-natured melodrama, Roswell was a show with a surprisingly dedicated fandom, who twice won it reprieve from cancellation. One of its main strengths was, of course, the extent to which its premise--alien teenagers trying to sort out their identities while emotionally involved with their human contemporaries--was a free-floating metaphor for race and sexuality issues. Another was the strong ensemble that its cast developed: you believed in the strangeness of the alien trio and the well-intentioned normality of their three human friends. Jason Behr gave the alien Max a quiet authority and Majendra Delfino took the sidekick role of Maria and gave it both intensity and fine comic timing. It was also a show in which you were never sure which adults you could trust--William Sadleir trod a fine line of ambiguity as the local sheriff and Julie Benz was silkily sinister as an FBI agent. Anyone who ever loved this show will want these DVDs--and many others may want to find out what the fuss was about.
Roswell is presented in 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen. The special features include commentaries by writer Jason Katims, the directors, and various cast members as well as featurettes. The commentaries are unusually insightful on the casting process, and the discs also include the auditions for the part of Tess as well as deleted scenes and a music video. --Roz Kaveney
Customer Reviews:
Fantastic series... but the three pack has flaws
Admittedly, I wasn't a fan of "Roswell" until midway through the first season. The first few episodes were a bit too corny for my taste, but then the series really took off and became a must-purchase. I bought all three seasons without having seen the last two, and loved them.
This is a great deal -- but bear in mind that the packaging leaves something to be desired. In opening each individual case and checking the disks, I discovered that at least one side of each case was broken, leaving the disks sliding around without protection. None of them were scratched, but I'm not too happy. The slim cases need TLC.

Just completed the series and loved it. Fell in love with the characters, of course we all know Jason Behr is a sweet hot guy, love his voice and everything else. Everyone on this show was great. They should pick up where they left off and write a few more seasons.
Roswell seasons 1-3
Awesome tv show and all we seasons were at a great price. I highly recommend to any buyers. Shipping was fast and on time
Great show, wish it lasted longer!
I never really watched the series when it was on tv, I had seen it on, but I didnt like watching shows that I didnt watch from the start, especially shows like these where theres so many questions. About a month ago I went onto[...]where I noticed they actually had the entire first season of Roswell on the site, I started watching and imediately was addicted, I ended up watching the whole first season in only a few days and once I watched all the episodes on Hulu I knew I had to buy the rest. I noticed people saying they thought the main actors didnt do very good and that they could have found better actors, but I think if anyone else had played any of the roles in roswell it wouldnt have been the awesome show that it is. The series really keeps you wondering whats going to happen and how all the relationships are going to develop. I thought I would be disapointed with the ending due to the fact that I was so addicted and thought there could have been at least another season, and that no ending would be good enough this soon, but I was pleasently suprised, It was a really great happy ending. I would definatly recommend people to buy the dvds and watch the show! two thumbs up from me!!
Roswell is to TV Series, what Trance is to Music ... a religion!
I am not gonna go about writing a long review describing how awesome this series was ... just wanna say that ... whenever I watched it, it would teleport me into another world!
