The engaging drama of three teenage aliens struggling to find their purpose and identity on earth returns to DVD for the final time when 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment releases Roswell: Season 3 in August.

Living among the citizens of the infamous New Mexico city of Roswell are four who are not there by choice. They are there to follow a destiny given to them by the members of their dying race, a race that they are someday destined to save. Max Evans, Isabel Evans, Michael Guerin and Tess Harding are teenage humans with extraordinary gifts – gifts that are “not-of-this-earth.” They are human/alien hybrids, sent here as replacements for the royalty of an alien race. Their counterparts have already perished in a war of attrition, thus one day, the ”royal four“ will return to their home planet and save their race. Before a fateful day in 1999, the teens hid their gifts. The event that forever changed their lives was when Max healed Liz Parker (a classmate) after she was fatally shot in the stomach in a
dispute between two customers at the restaurant where she was a waitress. A close relationship then developed between Max and Liz. ”Roswell” is a distinctly science-fiction based show built on the relationships between humans and aliens.

The DVD set will feature anamorphic widescreen versions of the episodes with 5.1 channel Dolby Digital audio. Extras that will be includedo n the release are Commentary Tracks on selected episodes, a Featurette called “Classs of 2002” and “Shiri Appleby’s DVD Tour to Japan” Featurette and new cutting-edge songs selected by the original Roswell music team.

Coming on five discs on August 9, “Roswell: Season 3” will be in stores for $59.98.
