TV is packed with revivals and reboots, and there are plenty more coming. Too often, though, these shows falter at finding a way to stand on their own two feet, and this seems to affect dramas even more than comedies. Unexpectedly, it's The CW's sci-fi drama Roswell, New Mexico that offers a blueprint for how reboots can be at their best.

Where too many reboots justify their existence with nostalgia (or, cynically, a desire to take advantage of name recognition), Roswell, New Mexico has a genuine reason to exist. The original Roswell used its alien characters as a metaphor for teenagers feeling like they don't fit in, but the word "alien" has a totally different connotation in 2020 America, and this Roswell leans into that wholeheartedly.

Its heroine, Liz (Jeanine Mason), is Latina, daughter of an undocumented immigrant in a small community with plenty of subtle and not-so-subtle bigotry. There's a constant tension between her experiences and the experiences of the "real" aliens — all of whom appear to be white humans. It's the sci-fi/drama mirror to One Day at a Time (arguably the best comedy reboot, and definitely one other shows should learn from), and not just because both shows are Latinx-led: it's because they both understand how to take the themes of an existing property and update them thoughtfully and with a focus on character, not heavy-handedness.

Roswell, New Mexico's other secret sauce? Lucking into a signature "ship" that's all its own. Liz and her broody alien beau Max (Nathan Parsons) are still the heartfelt romantic leads of the show, but the show's signature relationship is a creation unique to this version: bisexual alien mechanic Michael (Michael Vlamis) and Alex (Tyler Blackburn), a half-Native American Air Force captain who lost part of his leg in combat. The writing of their epic, decade-spanning love story immediately won fans, but it's the sparkling, electric chemistry between Vlamis and Blackburn that has unexpectedly elevated the storyline to the pantheon of truly iconic TV relationships. It was, perhaps, a risk, given how beloved the original version's Michael/Maria pairing was, but it's proved these risks pay off and that reboots benefit from not imitating their predecessors or taking new routes to the same endgame.

That's not to say it's perfect, of course. Roswell has a knack for intriguing side characters, but with 13-episode seasons, it's inevitable that there's a bit of a letdown because they don't get the screen time and development we'd like. Season two has given much more screen time to Maria (Heather Hemmens) but has also attempted an ill-advised love-triangle plot that's distracted from her journey of self-discovery and turned the crackling energy between Michael and Alex into an exhausting cycle of "it's over" declarations. Still, it's a smart and witty show whose best moments are truly great and, more importantly, truly its own. Other reboots should take notes.

Honestly, when you have the electric chemistry that Vlamburn does and such a rich, epic love story, how could anything else even come close to comparing?

So when I was giffing Maria this morning from episode 1x02, I noticed something interesting in her scene with Liz that has me wondering about a spoiler we have inadvertently gotten. I’m probably massively reading into this, but I’m putting it behind the cut, just in case. 

So anyway, on Wednesday, Heather Hemmens posted a picture on Instagram on her in the iconic 1x02 outfit. At the time, I just assumed it was a throwback photo...until she deleted the photo. Which definitely had me speculating about why, but at the same time, I wasn’t going to read too much into it. 

Then when I was giffing 1x02 this morning, I noticed something interesting about this shot of Maria: 

This is right after Liz asks her about the fraudulent zodiac phrase written on Rosa’s hand. If you watch carefully, a shadow passes over Maria’s face. It passes from the top left of the screen, down over her face, and then exits in the same direction it came from.

At first I found it annoying--a lighting mistake that wasn’t caught by production. But then I started wondering what was causing the shadow. If someone just walked in front of the light, why does the shadow move the way it does? 

Then I got to thinking that maybe it was deliberate? Within the context of the scene, it actually makes sense. She’s thinking about Rosa--about the night she died--and a literal shadow crosses over her face. Maybe it’s a hint of her psychic abilities. Maybe it’s foreshadowing Rosa’s return. After all, we’ll see Rosa again in Isobel’s head in the very next episode. And Mimi obviously could sense Rosa wasn’t gone forever in 1x07. So maybe this was a little hint at that. 

BUT...given Heather’s deleted post, I can’t help but wonder if maybe something else happened that night. Something we might get a flashback to next season. Something quite possibly having to do with Rosa. Did Maria have some sort of vision? Does she know something about Rosa that hasn’t been revealed to us yet? Something else?

Am I possibly reading way too much into a lighting mistake and a deleted photo? I mean, probably, but it’s fun to speculate. 

But while you are pondering this, I will leave you with one more observation, caught by @maxortecho: in the episode, Maria is wearing her mother’s necklace in every scene; in the photo Heather posted, the necklace is missing. 

Makes you wonder.

[TASK 102: COSTA RICA]

There’s a masterlist below compiled of over 150+ Costa Rican faceclaims categorised by gender with their occupation and ethnicity denoted if there was a reliable source. If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever character or whichever project you desire.

Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags, @ mention us or send us a messaging linking us to your post!

THE TASK - scroll down for FC’s!

STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!

STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!

STEP 3: Look back on tasks that we have created previously for tutorials on the thing you are creating unless you have whatever it is you are doing mastered - then of course feel free to just get on and do it. :)

STEP 4: Upload and tag with #TASKSWEEKLY! If you didn’t use your own screencaps/images make sure to credit where you got them from as we will not reblog packs which do not credit caps or original gifs from the original maker.
