In contrast to the teen angst of the original WB/UPN Roswell, the reboot "ages everyone up a decade in an effort to support the many ideas that are at play here: a romantic drama, murder mystery, and political allegory," says Danette Chavez. But Roswell, New Mexico is hampered by its clunky exposition and clunky dialogue, says Chavez. "Roswell, New Mexico’s real potential lies in much more fraught territory, something the series is cognizant of and occasionally unconcerned with," says Chavez. "Where (the original Roswell) focused on how every teen feels like an outsider at some point, the new series is in a better position to also examine how people’s fear of the unknown leads to some appalling actions."
