    murder spree ...LOL and it ruined one of my favourite songs...

    It took me three sitting to finish episode three. At one point I wanted to skip to the end but with 2/3 of the way through I thought it’s gotta pick up. I was wrong. It was stupid.

    I thought it was great. The original series also did have the odd rather goofy story to mix up things - I saw this as just following in that theme, but taking Mulder's new found realization and putting a little fun twist on it for just one episode. I think the fact that it was broke into three sittings may have been detrimental. Perhaps the style change was unexpected by many, but by 1/2 through I realized what was actually going on (style wise) and was able to accept it for one of "those" episodes, that indeed did occur in the original series.

    My 2 cents. Still have to watch s10 ep4 -- maybe later tonight ...

    I Googled “The creepiest episode of x-files.” The inbred hillbillies popped right up. That was my introduction to X-Files, season 4 episode 2, air date was October 11, 1996.

    The smell of that episode is still with me today.

    My life was at it’s craziest several years prior, so very little TV life. I did see a couple more, but they weren’t silly ones. One other I recall was with someone sealed off for eternity with a space ship. His eyes went weird like the black goo they talk about today. X-Files was too heavy for where I was at back then.

    #4 was almost straight horror - hopefully the remaining two, both written and directed by Chris Carter - will be an improvement. So far, I don't think it's doing well enough to justify a full season revival...

    The only worthwhile episode thus far was episode 1 (waste of an opportunity, imo). They need to get back to the ET stuff.

    Seen the first couple of episodes now - enjoying it so far, but won't offer comment seeing as I'm behind the times lol and for most this is old news now, but one interesting correlation to make, is how the supposed Roswell disk, shown in the crash sequence, resembles the Avrocar.

    Roswell saucer from X-files:

    The Avrocar is/was a declassified military project from the 50s to create a saucer shaped craft with conventional jet-engine techonology, which failed miserably. Note the almost identical centrally mounted jet turbine. One of the themes of the episode was ARVs (Alien Reproduction Vehicles), so I was wondering if there was a subtle connection here, or I don't know, maybe it was just a coincidence. Anyway, interesting design by the special effects designers here, and I thought I'd mention it..

    Just watched Episode-3.

    Probably there are not much "experienced"" X-Files fans here. This was one of the most entertaining episodes of whole X-Files - telling itself in the subtext - with a seemingly silly/impossible story. This is a story that mainstreamers will make fun of. But if you have eyes/ears for realizing a subtle sub-text, this is a tribute to Mulder's open-mind and unstoppable thirst for knowledge. This thirst can make him believe/follow some crazy theories.... like all of us here?

    One step beyond, this is a tribute to all alternative/underground seekers. Let mainstream have their fun with the surface story. You & I know "all the inside".


    P.S: Frankly, it is also a very big disappointment to read Avalonians posts on episode-3. I would have thought.... well nevermind..

    Durn - I wanted to get up 'n dance (with or without majic mushrooms - hilarious)! Here are the 3 songs which appeared in Episode 10.5:

    Miranda Lambert - "Somethin' Bad" (from "Platinum" album) duet with Carrie Underwood



    For the Billy Ray fans... "Achy Breaky Heart"



    and Trace Adkins - "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk"

    I think this 6 episode run has been a waste of time. Started off good with the first episode but then nose dived rather quickly. I realize they've done story lines before that were off the beaten path, but that was when seasons were 20+ episodes long. Only a small amount of time to work with here. Smoking Man only shown very briefly, not really utilized for what he brings to the table. No mention of the ET phenomenon since the beginning (which is what X-Files was built on, initially). Now they are setting us up for Mulder/Scully wannabes. I expect the last episode to get back to the alien agenda, but a little too late for me. Nice seeing them back together again....but a wasted opportunity, imo.

    Can we come back to this episode for a second? I don't know why I just started obsessing over it, I guess part of that is your P.S. above, like I missed something, second is the Reptilian thread. I am a first time watcher of the X-Files and kind of a recent 'researcher' of the other worldly creatures. Whether they dwell in the earth or not, that's just what I will call them for now.
    I really have no where special to lead you with my train of thought regarding the X-Files. It's these 'reptilian people' that I hear mentioned so often that I find to be the real mystery.
    In the end stage of life, in their last hours, many people in the process of dying have said out loud
    that they were seeing alligators, lizards and were rather startled.
    Dying is strange enough, now this?

    This is more like it...LOL....Basically episode 1 & 6 quote most of the alternate
    memes of the last decade and contaminated vaccines caused the epidemic, then
    the quickest vaccine development in history saved the day. This is fun but also
    rushed it would have been better if all 6 episodes stuck to this storyline and
    played it out more coherently , really strange ending ? set up for a sequel ?
    either movie or another season.

    Over all entertaining but far to much material crammed into 40 minute shows
    for me.
