'Roswell: New Mexico': Episode 1 kicks off as a gritty drama that attempts to overcome a government conspiracy

Doing away with the teen-flick drama of the '90s adaptation of the 'Roswell High' books by Melinda Metz, the show is set to bring in new twists to the old tale of forbidden love
PUBLISHED JAN 13, 2019

The year 2019 seems to be the year of reboots and if that is an indication of some doleful recollection of childhood nostalgia or just an attempt to churn out profitable business by going completely non-original is a matter of debate. However, with channels trying to bring up shows that can be more suited to the contemporary era (Bravo picking up the '90s age defining show, 'Queer as Folk') and also helping them keep up with their increasing viewership, it is no surprise that The CW has brought back the charming tale of forbidden love, in their latest reboot 'Roswell: New Mexico'.

Doing away with all the teen-flick drama of the '90s show which was an adaptation of the 'Roswell High' books by Melinda Metz, 'Roswell: New Mexico' is set to bring in some new twists and turns to the old tale of forbidden love.
