We’re sisters who usually like the same books and tv shows and whatnot. So when the other sister refuses to read/watch something the other one loves it’s suuuuuper frustrating (because we have great taste, what’s not to love about what WE ALREADY LOVE?) That’s where ‘My Sister Made Me View It’ comes in. The other one has to watch/read/whatever she has been refusing to watch/read/whatever and then we podcast about it.
Wow...moment of silence please, especially for Meg's patience. We did it. We finished Roswell. Emily feels one way about it, and Meg a completely and totally opposite way. For fun we went through a list of Roswell fanfics on Archive of Our Own. Here are the links for the fics we discovered:A Quiet Life by Rod Until You're Mine by FinalMoondragon Oh, Humanity by vinegarandglitterWarrior Liz by burmafrd The Antarian Timetravellers by maipigen
We creep ever closer to the finale (not fast enough for Meg, but we digress). GUESS WHO IS BACK BACK BACK, BACK AGAIN! Our favorite baby mama returns with said offspring. WHO CARES that the government is after them. And WHO CARES that Isabel (and possibly Max) is an alien. NOT THESE TWO GRANDPARENTS, that's for dang sure. One baby and ALL is forgiven. (WHAT?)
We draw ever closer to the final episode of Roswell: 1999 and ever closer to Meg's redemption of never having to watch another Roswell episode ever again! Which is a shame...'cause this one is actually good? A legit UFO crash near Roswell brings in MANY government officials plus other shady characters. And all Liz's dad wants is for them to say 'unexplained'. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?
We see the fallout of Max dying and possibly find out the actual reason Max has been so awful since finding out he was a king? Also, it's the return of the FBI...but we're not worried? ALSO - here's some YouTube videos to the songs we mention during the question and answer session of the podcast: Chopin - Waltz, Op. 64 No 2 C Sharp Minor Vaughan Williams Fantasia on a theme of Thomas Tallis (Orchestra)
It's the conclusion of the 2-parter where Max died? But not really....but did he? But forget ALL of that BECAUSE JESSE FINALLY KNOWS ABOUT THE ALIENS! And OF COURSE Kyle comes through as our MVP AGAIN.
It's an absolute off-the-wall episode. Michael is mistaken for the ‘healing alien', the famous waitress dress makes a comeback AND the sheriff finally gets a JOB and quits being a BUM.
Oof. Em owes Meg ALL the nice things for MAKING her view this show. Something weird is going on with Liz. She's....CHANGING.
Isabel indulges herself and images how much easier her life would have been as a 50's sitcom. We meet a new friend of Jesse and we MEET a new side of Jesse. This poor man just wants to LIVE HIS LIFE.
Welcome back to the Roswell 1999 feed! Join our teens on New Years! See Max go on a New Year's Date with someone OTHER THAN LIZ? See Isabel go on a New Year's Date with someone OTHER THAN HER HUBBY? What is even happening?
Welcome to the Very Special Christmas Episode for Roswell season 3! Max thinks his mysterious as-yet-to-be-named son is communicating to him via a child he meets at the diner, MARIA REALLY DID OR DID NOT BREAK UP WITH MICHAEL? (who knows anymore), and Isabel learns the true meaning of Christmas
It's another rough one guys, Maria AND Isabel's characters are actively being assasinated…AGAIN. We've got emotional cheating, REAL breakups (probably), and can Mr. Evans just let his kids LIVE THEIR LIVES IN PEACE????
Isabel is DETERMINED to have the honeymoon of her dreams…until Kivar shows up and threatens to take her away from her horrible life. And Megan threatens ME with quitting the podcast! Le gasp!
It's (FINALLY) Isabel's wedding AND EVERYONE IS BEING TERRIBLE TO HER. Why can't we let Isabel have nice things!??!
We pick up with part 2 of Max's adventures in L.A. to save his son and check in with Isabel's wedding planning attempts. Max shows his TRUE VILLAIN COLORS and NO ONE LISTENS to Isabel. AGAIN.
Welcome BACK to Roswell, everyone! This week we delve into the secrets and lies both inside and OUTSIDE Roswell. That's RIGHT! It's a travel episode that takes place in the very heart of LA: HOLLYWOOD. We meet and say goodbye to our GED dude, Max gets scouted, and we welcome back Meg's co-worker Mr. Jonathan Frakes!
It's the ULTIMATE STAKES for Isabel. No, not what college is she going to attend, or what car she's going to purchase but…SHOULD SHE GET MARRIED AT 18 AND GET STUCK IN ROSWELL FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE? (What do YOU think she chooses?)
Soooooo much kissing for Clark and Lois…I man Max and Liz. Kyle is HONESTLY doing his VERY BEST and is ANYONE APPRECIATING HIM? NO. Also, we see the humble beginnings of Marvel's biggest stars in THIS VERY EPISODE.
Season Three is HERE and EVERYBODY got an attitude adjustment. Liz and Max are now Bonnie and Clyde and each other's ride or die and Michael is DOING HIS BEST OKAY? Plus there are diamond heists, jail time, and tiny Utah towns.
Woah! Looook at US! Done with ROSWELL SEASON TWO. Meg is less confused, Emily knows nothing (AGAIN) and WE'RE SO EXCITED FOR SEASON THREEEEEE!
After losing our FIRST recording of this episode Meg and Emily finally got to re-record it. Join us as we solve the mystery of Alex's death with a little help from THE KEY TO EVERYTHING. Seriously, Meg. It was there the whole time. How did you not see it? (Tee hee hee)
Meg spends the MAJORITY of this episode being confused, Brody just wants ANSWERS, Max can you STOP for just like five seconds, and we welcome back the ONLY competent person in Roswell: Deputy Sheriff Hansen.
This is it. This is the one. The one where Megan's absolutely worst predictions of all came true…a Twilight/alien pregnancy. Can she hold it together as we se Liz continue to hunt for clues related to her friend's murder? While we watch Max spiral before our eyes? While we stan Michael for being THE BEST BOYFRIEND?….AGAIN?
Everyone is forced to take a side on whether or not aliens were involved with their friend's death. Max is slowly turning into a tyrant, Liz into a conspiracy theorist, and Isabel just wants to go to college. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?
Fair warning - this is a heavy episode. One of our number leaves us in the wake of a tragic accident. It WAS an accident…wasn't it?
Today's episode takes place during one of the top 5 potentially most important nights in a young (alien) person's life. That's RIGHT. It's PROM TIME. Who is taking who? What are we wearing? Will young love be re-kindled or extinguished forever? And who is taking their SIBLING TO PROM?
It's time for a little self-care…via Sin City. Michael bankrolls a field trip to Las Vegas, Megan ALMOST makes it an ENTIRE episode getting everyone's names correct, Liz fights off deja vu, and no other movie has EVER taken place in Vegas.
Emily is gone. Dead. Fininto. And it's all Meg's fault. But the show must go on, and on it goes. Laurie is in trouble, as are our good, good boys: Alex and Kyle. And we have a guest on podcast this week: Jane weighs in on rich people's taste.
Meg forgot everything between watching the episode and recording it so let me fill y'all in - Laurie, Maria, and Michael go on a reluctant road-trip, Liz is kidnapped…sorta, and the not-Sheriff does some arts and crafts around the house.
It's the Roswell musical episode according to Megan. Join us for (potentially too many) Les Miz spoofs and goofs. We also invite you to write in…about a lot of things. And it's the age old question: blue or green. (Also the sheriff has a BAD TIME.)
Welcome back to Roswell! This week Isabel dreamwalks with some sinister results and there's a kidnapping, no there's not...wait, YES THERE IS! Also, poll - do we or DON'T we want to eat at Senor Chow's?
It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like...MURDER? At least that's what Dick the Ghost is accusing Max of this week. Join us for a beautiful stroll through the holiday season in Roswell, New Mexico where we have hallucinations, adorable children pageants, and a true Christmas miracle. It's the holidays, folks! Anything goes!
We get to finish up the cliffhanger from last week! Max has no chill, Lonnie is our QUEEN, and could Liz's connection with Max be the start of a whole new set of problems?
Join us as we watch Roswell: 1999 Season 2 Episode 8. Here we meet the second set of teen aliens. Are we rooting for them or the OG's? Spoiler alert…Only ONE person dies in the episode.
Welcome to Season 2 Episode 7 Wipeout! Kyle and the Sheriff TRY to have a NICE DAY, but the stupid Skins show up AND RUIN EVERYTHING. The kids find themselves on their own, Max is betrayed by EVERYONE, and Tess takes a SERIOUS level-up.
Much to everyone's shock, Congresswoman Whitaker is dead. I mean, WE already knew that. But now so does the world. Half the gang goes to investigate and ends up in a very creepy town. Isabel finds a kindred spirit in Whitaker's brother, or DOES SHE?
ACTUAL TIME TRAVEL HAPPENS in this, Emily's FAVORITE, episode! Hot hunk of burning love Max from the future journeys to the past and asks the impossible of Liz. Megan is absolutely disgusted by….lotion. And do we now ship Liz and Kyle? Noooo? Maybe?
It's…time…for time travel? But not really. But we do get a blast from the past! Micheal learns more about the night of the OG Roswell crash from someone who was actually there! WAS it a weather balloon? Was Liz Parker's grandfather involved? Come join us for handsome WW11 soldiers, frames within a frame, and of COURSE, plucky gal reporters!
It's time to throw a surprise party for Isabel...and not Max? Her own twin? Congresswoman Whitaker invites herself along...to meet her constituents of course, so it's not weird she's crashing a teen girl's party. Tess is missing. Oh nooooooo. Saaaaave heeeeer. And the Sheriff does his part to save on his electric bill.
Welcome back! In this Roswell 1999 episode we dive DEEP into 2000's nostalgia: The CD holder. The Valenti's have a new houseguest. We find out who stole Michael's haircut. Isabel is down for….murder? And your hosts play: What Kind of Dog Would They Be? Good Times ALL AROUND!
WOOHOO! WE'VE ARRIVED AT SEASON TWO! Let's see what kind of consequences come from KILLING A DUDE! Liz is back in town AND HASN'T TOLD MAX??? Also, y'all better listen to Meg teach you how to hide a murdered body if you want to stay one step ahead of Deputy Hanson!
We spend this week's episode gearing up for SEASON 2 while exploring all of Meg's Season 1 guesses, theories, and of course bemoan the lack of KYLE in Season 1. We were ROBBED I tell you, ROBBED!
MUCH to Meg's delight…WE HAVE REACHED THE END OF ROSWELL SEASON 1! Michael FINALLY gets to fulfill his dream of killing someone, KYLE IS BACK, and Liz is OBVI MVP. You go girl!
Poor Max is being held at a secret FBI facility where we find out that…Wow. Pierce is BAD at his job. Like….REAL Bad at his job. Michael, Isabel, and Tess charge in sans plan, and Liz reaches out to form an alliance.
Join the sisters as they watch Roswell Season 1 Episode 20: Max to the Max. The alien pregnancy is STILL A THING? Is Tess on our side? And Meg's biggest shock of the episode was disguised as a continuity error.
Megan's most heinous prophecy comes to pass. Was Tess ever the victim of a vivisection?! What was your most emotional dream connection? Many dominoes are thrown into our faces to prepare for the finale--let's hope Meg enjoys it more than she did this episode!
Meg and Emily are BETRAYED we tell you. ABSOLUTELY BETRAYED. First, there was NO KYLE in this episode, THEN Isabel is FORBIDDEN from making FRIENDS? AND MICHAEL GOES TO MAX FOR ROMANTIC ADVICE? WHAT? IS? HAPPENING?
Roswell Season 1 Episode 16 covers ALL the normal teenage milestones: Glowing hickies, seeing visions, and digging up alien egg babies in the desert?!?! (ALSO, WHEN IS KYLE'S TIME TO SHINE?)
Today we cover Roswell Season 1 Episode 15: Independence Day. Michael's life is garbage as per usual and everyone thinks it's his fault. Kyle is nowhere to be seen but his dad sure is. Maria and her mom's relationship is goals and Liz and Max are still waiting on that DTR.
Friends! Welcome back to the Roswell Season 1 Episode 14 recap of Blind Date. Liz gets signed up for a blind date she DOES NOT WANT, Michael is DONE with everyone's nonsense, Maria Girlbosses her way to becoming the lead singer in Alex's band, and Kyle extends a beer soaked olive branch.
Emily and Meg watch Roswell Season 1 Episode 13: The Convention. Remember, it's not creepy if you KNOW they're watching you, here we stan Meg's co-worker: Jonathan Frakes, and the Sheriff FINALLY GETS YELLED AT.
It's Season 1 Episode 12 of Roswell ( Into the Woods). Join us for the EXCLUSIVE Father/Child Campout. Liz and Maria lie themselves into a corner, MICHAEL JUST WANTS A DAD...and consequently so does Kyle. Appropriate activities for said camp-out are: Gambling and Alien Hunting. it's fun for the WHOLE family!
