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 on six episodes by writer Jason Katims, the directors, and various cast members as well as a featurette on the making of the show and another on its adaptation from the original Roswell High series of young adult novels. The commentaries are unusually insightful on the casting process, and the discs also include the auditions for the part of Tess as well as a deleted scene and a music video. --Roz Kaveney

This dvd reminded me why I loved 1st season Roswell so much! The extras were a bonus!

I couldn't believe it when they decided to repackage the seasons of Roswell and say that she was the star character. All three starred in the leading role. It does bring an insult to the others on the show. This set is much cheaper and there isn't anything worth-while that would cause you to spend an additional $20 dollars on. (unless you love the design--like they want you too)
Onto the season....
I too wished the orginal music was in Roswell. The new replaced version isn't bad, but just isn't the same. The season went on like a teenage love story. It at times, compeltely mae me loose interest and had to go to the next episode. We had a overally skepitcal sherriff who is content on believing in UFOs and Aliens. We have three main characters ad three supporting roles (3 alien/3 human). They all seem to have a love interest with each other. (one dosn't blossom--well somewhat--until the 2nd season) in the ole-alien/human relations that's been played out to no end. it side-tracks a bit, it gets back on, and sidetracks again.
Overall, a good season, just a bit too much mushy stuff for my taste.....

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.
