Delightful. That was the word that popped into my head half-way through this episode as the machines made a slow but effective assault on our heroes. The only other show I can think of that did an almost no-dialogue episodeRead more…
The X-Files: Kitten (aka The One About Skinner)
Dana nailed it when she mused that even though they have known Walter Sergei Skinner for years, they don’t really know him. SAME. This episode clarifies some stuff, and gives us an almost sniff-worthy Aw Moment between our intrepid FBIRead more…
The X-Files: Ghouli
Halfway through the season, and we finally meet William. And he’s got a very groovy power! I was sure they would drag that out until the very end, so Yay for moving things right along. The episode opens on theRead more…
The X-Files: Forehead Sweat

I spent the first minutes of this episode hoping that the praying, PB&J eating Muslin, Shiraz, wasn’t a bomber. Imagine my disappointment when he and his buddy walked into that art gallery and exploded. But did he actually pull theRead more…
X-Files: Ep. 4, Home Again
GAH! This is a hard one, partly because there is a lot in it. But TXF were never really easy, and that is one of the reasons why I love it so. There are two parts to this one, theRead more…
