A must have if you are a fan, but the third season just does not stack up to the first two.

Roswell Season 3 DVD- Excellent Condition
This awesome series delves into the world of space on Earth with action-packed supernatural drama. Explore Isabel's and Jesse's relationship journey as it compares to that of average couples these days (subtract the alien powers at play, though), and watch Max and Liz's relationship grow stronger than ever as she starts to become like him. This series teaches us that no matter what choices we make in life, we should ultimately follow our hearts.

With these simple words came the end of the phenomenon that was "Roswell", quite simply one of the greatest science-fiction shows to ever exist. To be a true Roswellian in this day and age is quite something - most of us who followed the show the first time around are older (and hopefully wiser), but we can still watch these episodes back to back despite being completely out of the age group of the leads on the show. Such is the timelessness of "Roswell". Through the years, its' fanbase has grown and grown, and if there is one TV-on-DVD that you need to own other than "Firefly", then this is it.
Season Three, while being certainly less well-written than the first Season (which remains a classic season, and clearly the best season of Roswell), is essential, because its interesting to see how they tie up the loose ends. Even as a loyal fan of the series, I was disappointed at how rushed some storylines were, and how so many stories were left incomplete or conveniently forgotten about. For example, one of the greatly anticipated storylines carried over from Season One, is when the Alien Mother visits them and tells them to save their home planet. Of course by Season Three, no one seems to care about the home planet or going back, as they all choose to retain their human sides. Fine, but for fans who wanted closure, this season really skimped on that.
The final three episodes were the most infuriating. One of the most discussed storylines was of Max's alien son, but in the end, the baby appeared only for one episode, and Max quickly gives the baby up for adoption. This was very weird, and very poorly thought out. It almost destroyed the series for me. The other thing was Katherine Heigl's character. She went from a fierce and stable woman to a simpering, whimpering waif, and this transition was not at all appreciated, or even interesting. What happened to the Isabel of the first season?
The final episode has the entire group and their significant others leaving Roswell for good, without even saying goodbye to their families. Max and Liz finally do get married - their wedding is the last scene in the film as they all board a van to go off someplace. This is poignant, yes, but its also shocking at how much of a backstory was promised by the writers, and how little we actually got. Can't blame the makers though - they probably tried their best.
As a long time Roswellian, the Third Season frustrated me, like it did a lot of hardcore Roswell fans. Our favorite characters deserved better ends, and Isabel especially deserved more happiness than what she got here. Still, as a wonderful depiction of teen love and angst, this season had a good blend of both, and despite being really low on the 'science fiction' element (you can tell they were working with almost no budget on this one), it still oddly works.
Three and Half Stars. This series could have been so much more. But thanks for the memories, Roswell. You were one in a million.

Reel 5 of the third season has a defect in the disk. It causes the two episode not to play. Can it be replaced?
Rating: -
for all three seasons - it'a all about the eyes. Jason Behr has the eyes that will look into your spirit. This series is a must have.
