You know, what kind of name is Mulder, anyway? What is that, like, Jewish?

This except he's actually an evil ghost on an alien chip in Mulder's left rear end cheek

Not even an evil alien conspiracy would dare blemish those cheeks.

It's Scully in disguise to motivate Mulder.

so how important is it that i finish the xfiles before these new episodes because i'm kind of burning out at season 7

Not very. You should listen to The X Files Files though. Especially the ones for Jose Chung is From Outer Space and Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose.

honestly its hard to imagine there being a worse xfiles episode than that video game one in season 7

That ep had a pretty weak feminist message that shoots itself in the foot.

It could have been done a lot better but Duchovny and Anderson in paintball gear look pretty sweet.

Of course a bunch of suits and their bean counters almost sink this glorious return because they wanted to short a woman on her pay.

You guys hype? I'm sensibly hyped. :)

But we've seen The Syndicate talk about Aliens colonizing planets. We've seen gigantic Alien ships filled with human beings with Aliens inside of them.

And of course, we've seen warring Alien races lighting each other on fire.

Relatively new to X-Files, started watching the new episodes and was not impressed. Is the editing generally this poor in prior seasons?

Yes. Whatever you do, skip the pilot, best season is 7. You can start there really.

For goodness sake don't watch Squeeze of Tooms! These people have been drinking the x-files conspiracy koolaid, if you catch my meaning.

Well, before it would be just him talking and sounding like a lunatic. This time though it had a bunch of stock video stuff for every beat like a bad youtube video

And you think that's not exactly what Fox is into?

I am pretty sure they have done the same with a couple of Fox's voiceovers in the original series.

The original series was amateurish and pointless.

I just wish at some point in the first episode this would have been acknowledged, even just one line of dialogue would have done it. Like, "Wow Mulder, remember that time you thought UFO abductions were a government sponsored distraction? Maybe you weren't so off-base after all!"

And they should have mentioned that nest of gundarks they fell into. Boy was that a sticky situation!

Don't forget the lovable ghost couple who give sage advice after Mulder loses his way.

Those the same ghosts that tried to get Skully and Molder to kill each other?

They were cool.

He's supposed to sound crazy, right? Like he's an addict who just took a hit? I didn't think we were supposed to take that scene completely seriously, but that it was supposed to make us worry about his state of mind.

Yes. Scully is the audience in that scene.

Works in theory, but in practice what ended up happening was more like:

"Dear Lord, Carter, have you been hitting the phenazepam?"

He needs to keep hitting it hard and hitting it deep.

I really wish they'd done something more with Mulder's fear of fire (Pyrophobia).
