I watched 'Pusher' a little while ago, and one of my favourite moments was Skinner completely resisting the title character's ability and immediately laying in to him.

My favorite Skinner scene was in Hollywood A.D. when all three of them are talking on the phone while taking a bubble bath. Mulder and Scully are insecure and lie about what they're doing, Skinner is just like "gently caress yea I'm taking a bubble bath, what of it?"

Now they just need to announce Nicholas Lea will be coming back as Krycek and I'll know all is right in the world. What. He can be a clone or something. Bonus points in that it would make for a great reunion scene between him and Mitch.

I always loved that Krycek and Mulder's rivalry died down because it turned out Skinner and Krycek hated each other so much more.

He really hosed over all three of them Mulder - killed father Scully - involved with death of sister Skinner - nanites!

I don't know what's more exciting: this, or the reboot. edit: Just fired up the PS4, watching 'Ice' right now. Sure enough, it's in HD. It looks great. I'm so glad this show is finally getting the respect it deserves. I feel like it was ignored for the past decade. Exploder fucked around with this message at 05:26 on Apr 24, 2015 |

Upon close inspection, it appears that only the first 13 episodes of season 1 are in HD. I imagine it's probably a slow rollout. That's fine, I'll watch one or two episodes a week and pace myself until the new stuff comes.

Watching the HD episodes. I think the worst part about "Space" is that it totally wastes Ed Lauter.

Up now to the jersey devil episode, it is indeed kinda strange that they decided that a feral couple were the actual devil instead of something a little less mundane. I have to say that Tooms was an extremely unnerving episode, the way his eyes look out from the darkness was something I found more frightening than most horror movies.

There's an interview out there with a writer of the show who said that Hutchinson kept trying to get Gillian Anderson alone during filming, too, like trying multiple times to go back to her hotel room with her.

I wonder if he was a massive cock on the set of The Green Mile, too. He nailed the part of Percy, that's for sure.

He used to awkwardly say he was always going to come back to life in X-Files, I guess they have several good reasons for not doing that besides it just being dumb.

More of Season 1 seems to be in HD now. There are just a few random episodes right now that aren't (Gender Bender, The Erlenmeyer Flask.)

http://www.avclub.com/article/writer-producers-glen-morgan-and-james-wong-are-re-218719?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=feedsquote:TVLine reports that distinguished X-Files writer-producers Glen Morgan and James Wong have signed on for the show’s six-episode revival. The pair wrote several of the series’ most beloved episodes, including “Squeeze,” “Beyond the Sea,” and “Musings of a Cigarette-Smoking Man.” They are also responsible for the underrated “The Field Where I Died” and “Home,” the episode you put on when your friends think The X-Files is lame and then laugh maniacally as they cover their eyes in fear and disgust.

bull3964 posted:X-FILES STREAMING IN HD ON NETFLIX RIGHT THE gently caress NOW!!!! They had the whole thing up a while ago, but without subtitles which made some of the episodes weird when you couldn't tell what they were saying. Also didn't have "The Truth is Out There" at the end of the title sequence. Hopefully that is fixed in the HD version. Also Amazon Prime has the whole series with subs and everything for those who have that.

I'm not a shipper and this is why Mulder and Scully shouldn't be together. They are partners/soul mates. The Morgan/Wong is great news and I'm cautiously optimistic that this won't suck!

Just maybe formulated a bit wonky.

Stare-Out posted:I don't see why they couldn't keep it going if the response is good. Schedules permitting, anyway. The problem is the people involved are very clearly not into having X-files dominate another decade of their life. Anderson is busier than probably she's ever been in her career, and of all people there's no way Duchovny would be doing this if he thought it would be an extended commitment. If it's a monster success maybe there's a chance we get one more mini-season, but its not going to be a monster success. People will watch it, enjoy it, and then it will be forgotten not unlike Arrested Development's revival season.

Yeah, by schedules permitting I should've specified that I was thinking more along the lines of more "mini-seasons" like this one, not full-on revival of the show. Having it be shorter and more focused would do it more of a service anyway and, again if it's a big enough hit, they could give it a year or so between seasons to make sure no one is too busy.
