The X-Files : Season X (Spoilers!)
- Thread starter Sto-Vo-Kory
- Start date
Just think of it as a really big hiatus between seasons 9 and 10.
A good start. It's been a long time since I've seen a mythology episode but it felt like they were making at least a little headway rather than spinning their wheels. Not much mind you but a little. And the powers that be are appropriately menacing and anger inducing. The X-Files is definitely back!
Ok, episode has some flaws but don't forget that this episode must be like pilot and like contiunation after 14 fuckin years. Overall, this is fine job and smoking man OMG hahahahha.
For nostalgia
The newer badges looked too polish for the last seasons. Too glossy
There sure was a lot packed into this episode. This premiere captured the spirit and essence of the show when it was at its best, and I can't wait until tomorrow night to see the next one.
Nice to see Julian Assange and Edward Snowden in the flash cuts, and good old element 115...thanks Bob Lazar.

I thought that was awesome.
Wait. This is on again tomorrow (Monday) night? I thought Ep. 2 was next Sundaay.
Tomorrow is moster of the week episode (sf horor) by veteran James Wong and then next week is most talented writer, Darin Morgan (Jose Chung, Clye Bruckman, Humbug).
I think they premiered the show today because they were trying to take advantage of the NFC Championship game. The remainder of the show will air on Mondays starting tomorrow.
Tomorrow night it is.
I'm curious if FOX (and in Canada CTV) will have the episodes online the day after like many networks seem to do now. I often miss shows like Murdoch Mysteries and Supergirl on their broadcast nights so I watch them online the day after.
Excellent premiere, and it looks very promising, unlike Heroes Resurrected (which should stay dead). Mulder and Scully are back and are up against a conspiracy of men working against humanity itself. This time they have an ally in a conservative political pundit who also believes in UFOs and government cover-ups. The truth is still out there.
Second episode airs Monday night, which I'm looking forward to.

My two favorite callbacks:
*Scully still works at the same hospital (Our Lady of Sorrows) that she worked at in I Want to Believe.
*When the old doctor calls Roswell "a smokescreen," Mulder replies "so I've heard" -- most likely referring to Deep Throat's own dismissal of the Roswell crash from waaaay back in the second episode of the series.

Appropriately named just for Scully.
I thought it was pretty impressive considering it had to act as both a follow up AND a pilot. A little silly at times? Of course. But it always was. I really dug it.
