I have been lurking a lot, because I like this board very much.

I wanted to start this thread, but I don't want to offend the people who started this board or the people who hate certain characters.

I thought if I put this on a separate thread, then the people who like Tess, or Jesse, or even the people who like Jason Katims could post here without offending other people.

If you hate the characters, you can still post here, even negative comments. But if it offends you to read anything positive about the characters you hate, then you could avoid reading this thread.

As you probably guessed, I like Tess, and Jesse, and Jason Katims. I also LOVE all the other characters on Roswell, which is my favorite show of all time.

I had no idea I could ever get so wrapped up in a tv show!

If this thread offends you, please close it. I wouldn't want to upset anyone. Thanks

Aparo :wave - I was just wondering where you had hidden. Glad you came out of lurkdom again! :grin
I don't think anyone will be offended by your thread, this is actually the coolest thing about this board: people are really nice and don't take your personal opinion as an offense.

I don't really like Tess, but I don't hate her as much as some people do. I just think that her character was not written very coherently, that's all. She's either evil, or she's not. But none of that one-day-she's-caring-one-day-she's-evil-thing.
I don't hate Jesse either, I'm just pretty indifferent about him. I didn't like the way his character was introduced though. My favourite Jesse scene is from IMaA, when he and Eric are in the kitchen and Eric is telling Jesse that he thinks Michael has super-powers and might be a space alien, and Jesse just laughs so hard and uses the empty beer bottles as antennae - I just LMAO with him there! :lol

Aparo...you can post whatever you like. That's the wonderful thing about this board. Even though we all have different views on the characters, we all still get along without hurting anyone. :) It just happens that alot of the people here are Dreamers. We're getting more Candys though. Everyone is welcome to their opinion. :grin

That was SO funny!

I liked how Jesse stood up for Isabel. I thought he was a really nice guy.

I know what you mean, Alien Stalker, about Tess being evil and then being nice. I guess actually I've met a fair number of people like that--both evil and nice. And probably I think there are a number of politicians and some corporate executives who are like that. I've noticed that some serial killers have been described as being nice and then turn out to be murderers.

I didn't trust Tess at all when she was first introduced. I wanted her out of there. It wasn't until I read that some people really liked her that I paid any attention to her. I wondered how they could like her or think she was cool. When people began talking about Emilie De Ravin (who played Tess) and how very friendly she was and how very kind she was to the fans, I decided to pay more attention to the character.

I liked the Christmas episode where she set up Valenti and Amy. I thought it was great that she served Kyle's favorite dish. I also liked that she offered to leave their home. I loved how Kyle asked her to stay.

Kyle was another character that I didn't like or trust at the beginning. I was very fearful each episode of what he might do.

Two different ways two characters turned out--I guess that's another thing I like about Roswell. The show kept me guessing and wanting to see more! :)

I also think it's okay to start a thread like this here. I tell you, people here are definitely NOT as sensitive as other boards and I feel really free to say what I really want here compared to other boards.
I don't hate Tess like to the point I want her dead or anything, but I just think it was the way her character was written that made her so disliked. But I think that it's interesting to see someone who likes her.
I don't really have any hard feelings towards Jesse too, since I haven't even watched him in action yet!

:) We aim to please.

I have to say that I actually didn't like Kyle in the first season. I'm a 100% Dreamer and he was in the way of Max and Liz. Then, once Liz choose Max over Kyle, he kept pushing to figure out what their secret was. I just didn't trust him to know it at the time. So, when Max healed him. I knew he'd be alright. Then...they made his character SO funny. He cracked me up! Jesse...don't really have an opinion on him. I just liked Alex better. I think Jesse's character was rushed. We never really got to know him. He was just there, then he was getting married to Isabel...Tess...well...yeah. Don't like her. Sorry. :grin

That's true, of course. Actually that's one of the really good things about Roswell: the characters IMO are not onedimensional. In Tess' case, however, I thought they had exxagerated. Fine, she might have killed Alex by accident, but then her whole behavior before taking off simply did not match that. They (the writers) had her being really evil in the end while before she was sometimes manipulative, sometimes nice...I just thought that the way Tess was written was not very coherent. The sudden changes of her behavior didn't make much sense to me sometimes.
I also think Emilie de Ravin looks really nice and I do believe that she's kind to the fans and stuff. i think THAT no one here doubts. They all have issues with Tess. Right? ;)

You're also right about Jesse always being loyal to Isabel. i just didn't care so much about those two because I was caught up 100% in watching the Candy action on screen. - Wait? What Candy action? - Oh yeah, S3 basically lacked it, so...:cry :cry :cry

Kyle - gotta :love him. Only after S1, of course.

Yeah, they were. It's what makes this board different from those innumerable others I've visited: you can voice any opinion you like to. No one will attack you.

Yup. We were. Do you want us to yell at you about it? We probably could if you really want us to. :grin

Yeah, it's so hard when there's not enough of the characters you love!

Me, I'd like to have seen more of ALL the characters! I thought they all were so interesting, and I couldn't wait to see what would happen next. :)
