Robyn Burnett’s Crash Into Me: The World of Roswell tells the story of the WB – later UPN – series Roswell, based on Melinda Metz’s Roswell High young adult novels, that ran from 1999-2002. The book begins with a summary of the Roswell Incident from 1947 based on information from International UFO Museum and Research Center in Roswell, New Mexico. From there, Burnett provides biographies of the principal series cast before discussing both the fan phenomenon, its efforts to save the series from cancellation, and the various fan sites that arose in the early 2000s. Following this discussion are sections featuring a quiz for fans of the show and in-jokes. The book concludes with an extensive episode guide of all three seasons of Roswell. Interspersed among the pages are production and promotional photographs. Burnett’s book will appeal to fans of Roswell, particularly those feeling nostalgic for the television of their high school years and the early Internet. The overall effect is similar to Jacqueline Lichtenberg, Sondra Marshak, and Joan Winston’s Star Trek Lives! study of fandom from 1975. ( ) sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
A new spin on the concept of teen alienation. Roswell is an intense, intelligent drama inviting the question: what if aliens survived the famous U.F.O. crash of 1947? Based on the popular book series Roswell High by Melinda Metz, the show explores the lives of three alien/human hybrid teenagers as they struggle with their human allies to keep their genetic secret while eluding the FBI, battling enemy forces, and most importantly, simply trying to grow up. Roswell incorporates the usual themes of romance, friendships, parental conflicts, and rebellion while incorporating an old sci-fi mystery that took America by storm. Roswell was instantly popular when it first aired in 1999, and both fans and the media loved the show. When the wb announced Roswell's impending cancellation in 2000, fans petitioned the network and received a second season. When it happened again, fans turned their sights to UPN, the network that was thinking of taking over the show from the WB, and sent them 12,000 bottles of Tabasco sauce (the alien's drink of choice). Floored by the fan reception, the network picked up the show. Crash Into Me features biographies of the actors and creators of the show, along with details on the original crash of 1947. Author Robyn Burnett includes in-depth commentaries on each episode, as well as exploring the alien mythology that has influenced the storylines. The focus of Crash Into Me is Roswell's incredibly resilient fan base, which will stand behind the show no matter what. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
