"Ooh, I love this.." Whoops, someone else quoted Garrett's much used catchline. The reviewer who mentioned this as for the whole family's right on, and to that last poster, to each their own opinion, on the show being a waste (the one that said the episodes should be burned in the lake of filming!) I wish Stacey Moseley had become a major big screen star like SMG had,and that Cariksa Dahlbo had made it, like Sarah M.Gellar, Mira Sorvino and Brittany "That 80s Show"/"Sweet Valley High" Daniel did. Very funny and surreal show, as already mentioned by others. No high school mentioned either! Just a pictoresque, Victorian like setting with all kinds of weird stuff happening, and songs like "Talk as Sweet as Honey","Pola Dot Pink", and the theme, "Gotta Grow Up Sometime"., Glad to see so many others rememebered it, and I was already thirty when it aired..:)Fun show for the whole family..

I was 12years when I first saw Swans Crossing. My friends and I would race home after school, grab some snacks and tune in. We would perform the theme song and clown around during the commercial breaks. Fun! I think about Swans Crossing and I get so angry with the networks for canceling such an amazing show with such huge potential. Nowadays we are bombarded with skanky shows like "The O.C" and so forth. Its a shame... At least release it to DVD with the extras that never premiered. My goodness! The theme popped into my head and I couldn't stop thinking about it a couple years ago. I was fortunate enough to find someone who sells episodes on ebay!!! I have signed petitions for it's release as have family and friends of mine. We are all looking forward to the day they get it together and release it. There is no closure for me... Did Garret leave for Paris, will he and Sydney call a truce, will JT and Glory marry and have kids? Is UB2B going to get off the ground, Will the cops catch the baldies, who is Barek, really, is Sandy and Owen's group a success, are Jimmy and Callie officially together? I'm just a mess after all these years, pathetic, huh? In any event, I have copied DVD's if anybody is interested.... Long live Swans!

For the most part, Swan's Crossing was an under-16 "One Life to Live." Sarah Michelle Gellar stood out as the school bitch and the tease for the boys. Mira Sorvino was in it but I don't remember doing what besides being another 'pretty' girl. All the male characters stunk. And the scripts were just so bad. The characters were laughably one-dimensional. 65 episodes was way more than enough, my twin sister often made me watch this and my therapy is almost through now. Hopefully the archives of Swan's Crossing were burned by the lake where they were made. The sad part is that "Dawson's Creek" obviously took scenery and location ideas from this show.

This was by far one of the best-written and best acted shows for teenagers in memory. Sarah Michelle Gellar, Brittany Daniel, and Mira Sorvino all went on to have fabulous careers, and they all did a fine job on this show. SMG blew me away in her scenes where her character Sydney nearly drowned and was in shock. "Nobody helps me! Never!" What a powerful performance (I still believe it was the best scene I have ever seen her do)! It only lasted 13 weeks, not nearly given enough time to build a solid audience plus the timeslots were a little ridiculous. Most of all, the show was somewhat a fantasy, but it was real enough because the characters were going through what normal teenagers go through. The storylines were clever and there was always a surprise on Friday's episode (not many soaps can say that). Too bad the devoted fans will never get to find out how these stories played out. Had this show been given a chance, it might have lasted for years.
