Roswell Cast & Crew

Main

Bizarre things start happening in the little New Mexico town where UFOs were spotted in 1947. Cut to 1999, when a cute high-school student saves the life of a teenage waitress. Surrounded by cliques of clever, angst-filled classmates, the two form a bond that threatens the survival of a secret universe involving superhuman powers, a yen for hot sauce and an alien gene pool. Developed by Jason Katims ("Relativity," "My So-Called Life") with David Nutter ("X Files"), the sci-fi thriller was set for the Fox schedule before being sold to The WB. The network ordered 22 episodes, nearly double the typical deal for a new show. After two turbulent years on The WB, the network canceled the show. UPN promptly picked it up, but dropped it after one lackluster season.
