Loved that show. It's much better if you can get a hold of one of the DVD sets that links all the thematically oriented episodes (abductions, black oil, etc...) together.

It's a shame the movies haven't done too well.

One of my favorites also. I have the first five seasons on disc.

The movies....meh.

Glad to see they got in a flashlights scene -- I remember reading an interview with one of the writers who said that, whenever possible, they would write in a scene that had Mulder & Scully creeping around some dark building with flashlights & weapons.

What about the Peacock family. That one still haunts my thoughts.

I still hesitate to watch that one, Only fictional show/movie i've ever seen that truly rattled me.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Season 4, episode 2, though sometimes listed as episode 3.  Title is,  "Home."   [coffee]

I think I like season 3 the best, particularly the episodes where the X-Files kind of makes fun of itself.  Examples:  Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose, War of the Coprophages, and Jose Chung's "From Outer Space."  Interestingly all written by Darin Morgan, who left the show after the third season.  Yes, I am an X-Files nerd.   8)
