television in current retrospect

[seperis]

I just discovered Roswell for free on Amazon Prime. The only reason I was ever interested in watching it was to get context for jengrrrl's Michael/Maria, and that was in the day that you could not download episodes or stream them so I had to watch current episodes and read summaries.

...God, how did we survive? I mean, there were mailed tapes, but I just realized I don't own a VCR anymore. Okay, digression, moving on.

One, I'm weirded out by how many of my favorite songs are on here. I mean, I resigned myself to a terrifying amount of SV and Dawson's Creek related playlists, but there's a really uncomfortable realization that the WB was far more insidious than I ever expected; I have a horrible feeling that if I were to check soundtracks for WB shows from when WB opened until, oh, today, a terrifying amount of my most played music was played on one of their shows or introduced by them.

Also, Max and Michael are ungodly hot. Are their cheekbones made of razors or something?

Wait, does Amazon Prime have the original music, or the music from the DVDs? Cause the DVDs changed it.


WHAT EPISODES ARE YOU WATCHING? I WOULD LIKE TO WATCH ALONG.

Changing the Michael/Maria scene in the rain in Independence Day from "Run" by Collective Soul to whatever inferior song on the DVD was just a slap across my memories. I rewound that scene so many many times back in the day, I just cannot wrap my head around any other music there.
