TV show description:
A science fiction Romeo and Juliet television series, this show revolves around the romance between a human girl and an alien boy when he and six others of his kind are integrated into a suburban high school.
When Emery Whitehill (Aimee Teegarden) was six-years-old, an alien spacecraft crash-landed in her small town. Whether they came in peace or with more sinister intentions didn’t matter — a fierce battle erupted as humans fought for control over their new rivals, an alien species called the Atrians.
In the midst of the conflict, Roman (Matt Lanter), a six-year-old Atrian boy, found his way to a shed behind Emery’s house. There, she protected him from harm, brought him food, gave him comfort – and friendship. In their brief time together, Emery and Roman forged a deep bond, but the authorities wasted no time in tracking Roman down and capturing him in a violent confrontation. Emery grew up believing that Roman had been killed that day.
Some 10 years later, the Atrians have been acclimated to life on Earth, however they’re interned in a heavily-guarded camp (the Sector) to keep them separate from humans. Now, for the first time, a group of Atrian teens will enroll in a suburban human high school, with the goal of testing the feasibility of human/alien integration. The eyes of the nation and the whole world are fixed on this historical social experiment, an endeavor fraught with suspicion and fear.
In the mayhem of the first day, Emery is amazed to learn that Roman was not killed by the authorities and is, in fact, one of the Atrian students. Their childhood bond is quickly rekindled. In a school and a society that distrusts everything about the Atrians, Emery and Roman have found each other again. However, their relationship is threatened by the small-mindedness of their respective communities and the political agendas of people in power.
While the world around them rages with anger and prejudice, their bond becomes increasingly strong and increasingly dangerous. Then, a violent encounter between Roman’s father and Emery’s father occurs in the Sector. Can Roman and Emery’s love survive? Can there be true peace between humans and Atrians?
Episode #13 — “Passion Lends Them Power”
After Roman is badly hurt, Emery turns to an unexpected ally for help. Meanwhile, Grayson , Drake , Sophia, and Lukas race to find the stolen Suvek before the Trags can activate it. However, Vega (guest star Merle Dandridge) is a step ahead of them and sets off the Suvek in the middle of a Marti Gras parade. Teri is shocked when she overhears Vega ordering the death of her friends. Gloria discovers Taylor’s secret and shares one of her own.
First aired: May 12, 2014.
What do you think? Do you like the Star-Crossed TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
they need to renew if for nothing more then to finish it the right way . I would watch it over and over
Just watched and would have loved if it had been brought back for a second (&more)season! A great watch and SO disappointing to know it was cancelled!
They should have renewed it for a second season even if they would have ended it. Atleast you wouldn’t be so upset with the little shows that people actually enjoy! Re watched the whole season in a night just to be upset with it again! I don’t like being disappointed in people and their decisions but I am in this case
Loved it!
Yes I think they should’ve brought it back because it ended in a bad way. It ended showing the war ships coming to earth, and the people from earth died.
I was so upset an mad when i found out that it was over (canceld) that I toled my man an even he sed he wonted it to come back.
PLEAS BRING IT BACK!!!!!
So much fun waching this show, cuting it off was not the best ida.
Just started watching and can’t get enough. Several episodes brought me to tears and only good shows to that for me. Are you guys kidding? Please please bring it back! It’s gonna be stuck in my head until I find out what happens with the Atrians and humans integrating. I especially love the romance between Roman and Emery, its makes you want to want to watch the next episode. OMG! I’m hooked! I’m gonna watch it again!
Bring it back! Bring it back! Season 2! Make it happen!
I just started watching this show and I see this show being big. I really enjoy this show and I would like to see a second season. BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!
I really enjoyed the show, and I would really like to know that happens next.
Bring it back best new show out there.
This Series was enjoyable & the actore who played Roman & Miss Yeung were the best
I am very disappointed – there was no 2nd Season
I think that is should not be canceled because people who watched star-crossed wanna know what is gonna happe. in the last episode a lot of things happened and the people who watch star-crossed want to know what happens in the next episode. If people are going to cancel one tv show then they should cancel every show they have have because that not fair to their fans who watch star-crossed
Please bring back star crossed! It deserves a fair chance, not just 13 episodes and then giving up.
I agree with you it needs to be brought back!
This rilly stinks ening this show wa a rill let down and I only wish thatI had seen it befor they ended it completly. I would do any thing for another season or at least 8 more. Pleas pleas pleas bring it back !!
