Roswell to be Rebooted?
With a whole new twist, this is not how I wanted the show to be revived. I wanted a new chapter. Not a complete different look at Roswell...
But it's still the early days, so we'll see if the resulting product has any connection to the earlier television show... Source: Deadline.com Quote:

I know. I got exicted when I first read it but then realized it was not the same. But guess that's what reboots do. I don't know how much they could add or keep from the original story, that and the characters are what make Roswell so awesome.

I refuse to watch this.
It's all about reboots now. They can't be originals anymore. What they should do is a "Gilmore Girl's: one year in the life" Roswell 4 episodes sequels to see what they're doing now ect... __________________

I don't mind the reboot idea though. It is still based off the original Roswell High books by Melinda Metz. It has potential and I trust Carina MacKenzie to try to show some homage to our beloved Roswell. __________________

I wouldn't be against it if it could have some kind of tie in to the original show, and original cast. I know they are going for how they are redoing Dynasty, for a younger generation and more of a ethnic cast.
But this is made for a revamp. Have a tie in. Say it's Max and Liz's daughter who comes to her grandparent's and parent's hometown only to learn she is the daughter of a undocumented father due to Max and Isabel's "questionable" heritage. They were adopted. But they did come to Earth via pods, so no birth parents on Earth. Or have Max and Liz's daughter fall in love with a undocumented male. She has the alien powers. Maybe get Shiri and/or Jason or other former cast members to make appearances. I know they said, the studio behind it, is not the originating studio so they probably can't do a direct reboot... But it would be better... Because the show is a cult classic because of the show AND the original cast! Otherwise, some of those obstacles would not been able to have fans stick with the show! __________________

It might work out. But I am truly uncertain it can. Because Shiri and Jason, and the whole cast's chemistry was so magical. Hard to recapture that... Unless you have some of the old cast! __________________

OK I am so upset about this! If this happens we are So taking the fandom back!
We still believe in Roswell just not this one! It's not even the original cast or storyline of Roswell! Why can't the CW call this new show a different name leave our Roswell alone! Tweet the CW with the #NotMyRoswell #NoRoswellReboot #LeaveRoswellAlone https://mobile.twitter.com/TheCW 'Roswell' Reboot in the Works at The CW | Hollywood Reporter Quote:

I am not against it, if they could tie in the original show. But if it's going to be using the same characters but new actors, and using the shell of the name of Roswell. No thank you. We don't need a new Max. Or Liz. Or Maria and Michael...Katherine, Nick...
It's a cult classic because of Jason, Shiri, Majandra and Brendan. __________________

Hey Guys it's Nomi.
I know since we heard the news yesterday a lot of the fans have felt really conflicted. Mainly because we want to see the old cast. I will be posting this on the Baron and Toluca Thread as well, but please keep my post here as Roswellback and Crashdown are trying to come up yet again with another campaign to counter the reboot, not to disrespect its efforts by any means, but to just proclaim we wanted the Original Cast. Since it seems like this is a new story and new mystery with a new cast, we really could use B+T right now. Here is the info. I hope you all can join us on Twitter tomorrow. It's a whole day event, and we need to speak up about what we want. Right now B+T seems to be the most appealing. Check it out: ************************************************************************ "You’ve probably heard, Roswell is considered in getting a reboot. Intrigued? So are we! But before you get super excited we should warn you, that this CW Reboot means new cast, new story, and new mystery. It sounds really cool, but naturally a lot of Roswell fans, especially the die hard ones, wanted something with the original cast back. The Roswell fans have been wanting some type of Revival for years. Getting this news may be exciting but also...a little disheartening. So why not make EVERYONE happy- those that are excited for this new treat, means great news! But what about all those fans that wanted the original cast? CUE IN B+T. Brendan Fehr and Majandra Delfino who played Michael and Maria, respectively on the Roswell series, have banded together to to take our beloved show and carry it into a slightly different concept---one that will even feature our favorite Roswell cast members appearing from time to time, as Brendan has said in a couple Facebook Live chats." So this Saturday let’s Tweet to @NETFLIX AND @HULU that we want B+T! For those of you that haven’t heard, the promo and synopsis can all be found here: http://www.baronandtoluca.com/" "Let's spend the whole of Saturday, October 14th, tweeting, posting, and sharing our fervor with Netflix and Hulu with the hashtags #NETFLXforBandT and #HULUforBandT and the link of the promo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ix-t3wlUuwU&t=9s. Feel free to add pictures and GIFS to attract more fans to step up! We want those old feels ignited by the original cast. Let’s DO THIS! Last edited by 9loveletters9; 10-13-2017 at 06:18 AM |

So I just saw this a few minutes ago, and my initial reaction is NOPE. Especially if it has nothing to do with the original cast and show. I also don't understand her answer/comparing it to Teen Wolf.
I don't know, they tried a similar thing with Star Crossed and that tanked. I don't know how I feel about them attempting to use the Roswell name in such a way? I'm super conflicted. I guess we need more details, but as of right now I'm not on board. If it ties on with our beloved Roswell in some way, then I might be interested. __________________
