Star-Crossed

Star-crossed provided an a very good introduction to the main plot and whats at state the world. It stars Aimee Teegarden from Friday Night lights and Matt Lanter who as leads hold there own.

The rest of the cast is also great. While we are introduced to a lot characters you can tell that we have barely began to see their back story which influences us to watch more of it. As a viewer I cant wait until the next episode to be shown this promises to be a strong show.

I found the story simple and I found it really enjoyable to watch. I would really recommend this show and suggest this is one of better shows that the CW have made. So keep watching it.

In 2014, an alien spaceship crash lands on earth in the small town of Edendale. The initial contact goes badly as many Atrians are killed. Young Roman escapes and finds shelter in Emery's backyard shed. Roman is shot and recaptured. Ten years later, seven teen Atrians are integrated into the local high school. There is an immediate backlash. Emery Whitehill (Aimee Teegarden) realizes that Roman (Matt Lanter) is one of the seven. Her friend Julia Yeung (Malese Jow) is dying from cancer. Roman uses a secret alien plant to cure her. The Atrians are being harassed by a human group called Red Hawks. Roman's peace-loving father and Atrian leader is accidentally shot to death by Emery's security chief father. The Trags are extremist Atrians bent on destroying the human race.

It's a teen high school melodrama that is always on the edge of overloading the show with too much sci-fi. The fact that it got canceled so quickly probably saved it from disintegrating from too many convoluted story points. The young cast is fine and they grew on me. The show really throws a lot into the story. I would have like for the show to settle down a bit more.

I'm not too into writing reviews for shows but when I see negative reviews on a show that is worth more than that, I feel it's my duty to write a positive one. I thought the pilot to be extremely exuberant and enticing. I love the chemistry between the two lead characters and find the story to be familiar in some ways but at the same time, I sincerely see it as a breath of fresh air. I think it is more original than many scifi-oriented shows out at the moment and I think people shouldn't judge it so harshly. I think this show has something for everyone and all should give it a watch. I hope it does well as I look forward to seeing more!

Love this show from the PILOT episode I was hooked! It gets better every episode and seeing the story develop and if Roman and Emery manage to get together as humans versus aliens stand in there way!

Pilot had a great pace and as far as Roswell similarities I think they did it better. Heal scene was a lot more heart warming cause it saved the life of someone that Emery cared about. The music in the show is really good just like Roswell was!

Monday's 8pm on CW is the only place to be!! Can't wait for tomorrow's episode it's gonna be epic! :-)

Star-Crossed is the best show on TV!

This is a very addictive show with amazing chemistry among the characters (especially Matt Lanter's Roman and pretty much everyone he comes in contact with). The show shouldn't be made to suffer and get axed due to poor marketing. Shows like the Vampire Diaries had the same base in the first season (teenagers, high school, new 'beings' and all...) but because it was marketed well, it reached the target audience. Please market this show and give it a chance!! The show takes a very different approach to an alien/human plot. Though for teenagers, it is just as addictive for adults with a fondness for romance, sci-fi and an interest in a very relevant political problem in our society.
