The 6th Day is psyching audiences on futuristic sci-fi. And Roswell is heating up the tube. Make no mistake. This holiday season, aliens are invading.<\/p>\n<p>And we&#8217;d like to say thanks. Thanks to Robert Patrick, for making us miss Mulder a little less. Thank you, Ah-nuld, for not making another End of Days.

As hybrids, the Roswell folks are so much more interesting than your average alien. They&#8217;ve got our problems and alien dilemmas. Of course, one problem they ain&#8217;t got is looks.
