So as a direct result of some seriously weird dreams I had last night, I woke up this morning and went searching to see if my Favorite TV Show Of All Time was on Netflix Watch Instantly. I figured it wasn\u2019t, since, objectively speaking, it\u2019s the most ludicrous television show ever to grace the small screen, but lo and behold, there it was! So I\u2019m spending today cuddled up on the couch with my yet-again-sniffling-minions, reliving my high school days by watching Roswell<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I know, I know. The show is awful, and the two main characters are almost as emotionless and unbearably wooden as Shovel Face and Vanilla in the Twilight <\/em>movies. However, the badass assortment of supporting characters more than makes up for the dreadful community-theater emoting that Max and Liz make us suffer through. Brendan Fehr\u2019s history as Michael Guerin is the major reason I squealed like a creeper fangirl when he appeared on Bones<\/em>. Katherine Heigl\u2019s turn as Isabel is also the only reason I seemed to have escaped the inexplicable hatred of all things Katherine Heigl that seems to have poisoned everyone, everywhere. Tom Hank\u2019s son Colin is geeky and charming as poor, doomed Alex, and I even loved Emilie de Ravin as Tess. (*Ducks as Roswell<\/em> fans everywhere throw flaming bags of poo at my head*)<\/p>\n

But Majandra Delfino is my absolute, all-time favorite television actress. She\u2019s hilarious, bizarre, and a really great singer. Her jazzy voice and whiny, tortured lyrics were my music of choice in high school. They so perfectly captured how difficult my upper-middle-class-suburban adolescence was. Unfortunately she never really took off and her best stuff isn\u2019t available on Youtube for the idle, five-minute searcher, so here, best I can do:<\/p>\n
