Oh my goodness! Season wonderful flash fest! By far the best part of that eppy! They even showed Alex in the flashes. I thought TIIC thought that he never existed? Leave it to those idiots-ignore the fans, destroy the show, and then when it is too late to save the show, start to give the fans what they want. Unbelievable!

Some interesting things in this eppy:

Max without that stupid Village People leather outfit. Max, you should croak more often...please.

Liz back to "pre-streetwalker make-up". Thank GOD for that!

Liz turns into a serious drinker. Just like the rest of the Roswell fans I guess? You go girl!

Kyle shaves of those idiotic sideburns. It's about time.

Merris gets her final "face lift" with a "twist". Did you notice that when she blinked, about 50,000 wrinkles appeared? Morgan Fairchild has been under the knife so many times her lips no longer moved when she talked. Good riddance! Especially since in the last episode she said that "money can't buy youth", or something to that effect. Yeah, right!

Micahel tells a little story about when he met Isabel, and tries to "humanize" her. TATB have been trying to play the sympathy card with her all season. Didn't work then, doesn't work now. Hope Jesse turns her into the Feds. No one was more upset than I when she recovered. Damn it! How did the doctor ever find the bullet through all of that silicone?

Michael doesn't just tell Jesse that they are human/alien hybrids, but goes for the "Royal Four" story? Jesse must be filling out the divorce papers as we speak. If he has any sense.

The Kyle/Isabel scene was...weird. Are they trying to hook those two up now? Now that TATB have figured out that nobody likes Isabel, Jesse, or Isabel/Jesse? Please don't soil Kyle with Trashlite. Please.

When did Jim get the "new" ride? What happened to the pick-up truck? Or the Mustang? Is he moonlighting as a repo man?

Glad to know that Jesse hangs around with a revoked license doctor from the 'hood. Wonder what 'hood in Roswell he knew him from? Citrus street? And wouldn't he be at least five years older than Jesse to have gone through medical school and residency, in order to be a doctor, so then his license could be revoked? Maybe his license was revoked because he was caught playing doctor with Jesse?

And what is wrong with Michael? He has the torso of a couch potato and the head of a AIDS patient? He is not looking healthy. Although maybe its the hair. I don't know. Didn't seem all that broken up over Max's demise either. Maybe he was eyeing the Village People jacket? Must come with the throne or something.

Lucky that Michael and Iz just happen to share the same blood type? Or is it unlucky? Ask me again after a couple more drinks.

Did Majandra just phone it in? Or was it just me? At least she made mention of Amy. Who doesn't seem to mind that her underage daughter is skipping school, and meandering along the Eastern Seaboard? I guess as long as it is not in her Jetta, it is okay?

Loved the Max and Liz flashes as the plummeted out of the window. A- for content, F for filmmaking. (A- because it included scenes from seasons spew and flee.) Funny, it didn't look like they were jumping off the Sears Tower, but it sure took that long. I guess one of their new alien powers is to rewrite Newton's Law of Gravity?

Not a heinous eppy, not great either. Just blah.

Love,

Rick

Dear Rabbit,

I didn't hate this eppy. I just found it blah. Michael was blah, Maria was blah, Max was blah. Liz was good. Jesse was good when he hit Michael. Kyle was good. Jim was blah.

It just struck me as less emotional than it should have been. Not cold exactly. Just not "deep". I am not explaining my thoughts and feelings very well on this. Maybe I'm blah?

Love,

Eeyore

OK...to me the episode was very exciting. I was crying from the beginning ...but there were some moments when I didn't understand why something was said.

for example...I understand Isabel was heartbroken by her brother being dead and all, but did any notice that shriek she let out outside of metchem?

I'm not that much of an Isabel fan so when she got shot, I cried tears of joy ! ( bad me huh)

I loved the part where Clayton/Max looked at his body and said "He must've worked out a lot" I totally didnt expect that! and the look he gave plastic bones when he got all horny talk about hello!

Liz she did a great job at being highly emotional...especially when she was drunk...I went crazy when she fell on bum and started laughing at herself.

The only downside...there was so much that could've been explained...maybe in a couple of episodes maybe... Micheal the guys and the Snapple...where that whole scene where the guys in the white suits come in and take everything that micheal used. if we would have known from then that something was up we would have been more prepared. I think this whole "situation" came out of the blue... Obviously somebody is smoking some good gunja , cause they can only see what's happening with the story line in there own heads.

I thought the episode was pretty good. It had it's moments and I really liked the flashes.

I'm still on some freakish natural high from this episode? Maybe it was just my dreamer finally getting fed for the first time in oh, EVER! (I didn't start watching till the end of season one and I didn't become an obsessive dreamer till season two. Talk about brutal). I think I watched the end about 10 times, and all the parts with the flashes and the 'but I love her' I was acting like a stupid 12 year old girl about to meet a backside boy or some other annoying boyband equivialent. I had the most infectious good mood on Tuesday morning (Cause I live in Ontairo and I get Roswel Monday nights he he he) it was quite funny.

Hi there!

I can't agree that this was a great eppy and has been great for the past three shows. The down side to all this hype and buzz going on for the last remaining episodes it that the writers and directors don't have that much more to experiment b/c of all this crap about cancellation.

Chant Down Babylon revealed so much emotion that -- even by reading some spoilers I was brought to tears when watching the K/I & M/I scenes. They seemed to true and honest. I must say, I loved seeing Michael's vulnerable side and make me route for him and Isabel to be together. Yeah, sure Jesse doesn't get much cheering from the fans, but Michael and Isabel really opened a door to what they could have may work. I mean Maria's not really into him and it shows big time.

And may I direct your attention to Max and Liz. Liz ‘claimed they were finally equal', but that's not true…'cause let me do the math for you.
1. Max saved Liz from the fatal gunshot in the Pilot.
2. Max saved Liz by throwing the green shield, preventing her to taking the fatal fall Max did in Chant down Babylon.
3. Liz saved Max with a kiss, bringing him back to life.

There you have it…. it's 2 to 1 – in Max's favor.

good catch...i forgot about that.

"Hey,at all! I just saw CDB and i want ask you what mean STRAP ON A PAIR? i don't understood it because i'm italian."

It is a reference to a part of the male anatomy that comes as a pair. It means "be a man" or "start acting like a man."

Hope that helps.
