    One of the better supernatural teen shows of this era - the romantic leads are handicapped by the fact that the aliens can't meld with the humans in any ordinary way, but that also brings some heat to the proceedings. Sadler is great in his typical supporting role.

    There is something magical about this first season. Great acting all around, particularly from (then) newcomer Brendan Fehr. Just right combination of mystery/suspense/romance.

    Roswell is, really, not bad. But in a prime-time universe crowded with quality dramas in general and quality supernatural dramas in particular, pretty good is not quite good enough. [4 Oct 1999, p.T1]

    What grabs you about Roswell is its lyrical depiction of being 16 and in love and feeling like everything you thought you knew about yourself has become alien to you. [4 Oct 1999]
