Bang Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I liked it.. a little corny here and there, and it reminded me just how often I want to tell Sculley to take her depressing drag-ass and hit the road. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zguy28 Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Last night's episode was pretty good. I could have done without showing the fetus crawling out scene and the scene where Goopta mistakes Mulder's intentions. Glad my children weren't around.

Rocky21 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Hyperbole aside, the return of the X Files in 2016 is one of the best developments on the pop culture landscape.  I know that this is for the sake of new viewers to the show but I want to mirror what an earlier poster said, it's like the characters are forgetting things they already knew like that Scully was "abducted" and that she has alien DNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they ever covered the alien DNA aspect previously. I've been watching the previous seasons the past few months and I don't recall alien DNA being discussed. Having alien tech yes, havubg alien hybrid babies yes, but DNA, I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xameil Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Just looked up the Scully abduction story line. She was injected with DNA, but it was never discussed as being alien DNA. It was DNA used to track her along with the device at the base of her skull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonniey Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Well my system managed to record 24 minutes of Post Game and end Xfiles 24 minutes early. Now I'm going to have to look it up online - Damn Direct TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeorama Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I know it's on Hulu Mulder actually mentioned "the Syndicate" by name last night (first time I recall him doing that), but he seems to think all the alien encounters we're just men pretending to be aliens and utilizing alien tech. Â Â IMO, because of the history, it has been back and forth over and over. Â It makes some sense that Mulder would question what he's seen because there were multiple episodes where he saw what seemed like Aliens but turned out to not be. Â Over the course of the show, he's seen so much but has also been shown so much false info as well. Â It would seem that it would be hard to tell apart what was true and what wouldn't be at this point. Also, many times, he's told stuff but its not spelled out for him. Â That would frustrate the hell out of me if this was real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Well my system managed to record 24 minutes of Post Game and end Xfiles 24 minutes early. Now I'm going to have to look it up online - Damn Direct TV.Went through the same exact thing. On Demand has the fast forward disabled so you have to watch it straight from the beginning again.

EvilMonkeyBoy Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 The scene where Goopta mistakes Mulder's intentions. That was a highlight of the episode for me, it's about time that Mulder's tendency to speak in the vaguest terms possible lead him to an extremely awkward situation. I appreciate that the writing this time around is a bit self-aware. I've read that next week will make a few references to how the agents fit into a world with smartphone technology.

justice98 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Mulder actually mentioned "the Syndicate" by name last night (first time I recall him doing that), but he seems to think all the alien encounters we're just men pretending to be aliens and utilizing alien tech. Mulder seemed too dismissive of all that running around the Artic and giant alien spaceship that flew into space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Last night's episode (Were-monster) was amazeballs.  Rhys Darby nailed it.  Mulder and Scully were the Mulder and Scully we all loved. Best episode by far..and maybe one of the top 5 of the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USS Redskins Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Eps are all good so far and the were-monster was good but I don't think it was THAT good... I mean, Men are the real monsters was the theme... That's so original! Still very entertaining. The 2nd ep about the kids was great. Choked up a bit at mulder and scullys fantasies. Hope they pick the series up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
