The over-arching story and mystery is phenomenal but too many of the 'monster of the week' episodes were just dull and in some cases are just tired and dated now. My favourite ever episode was their blatant rip-off of The Thing though. Cracking episode. The f**k is this? 1 hour ago, NotThePars said: It's a lot gorier than I anticipated. Worth a watch tho even just for the f**k the govt message or how hot Scully and Mulder are. I used to prefer the latter in my TV but I've swung around to the former more recently. I do like the mythology characters in X-Files whose motives and allegiances are uncertain tho like X and Skinner. They're great. Agreed on the monster of the week stuff tho. Any episode involving a random cult or guy quoting scripture are my faves by a distance. The satanists and vegan cults are the first ones I think of or the Vietnam vet enacting vengeance.

My favourite ever episode was their blatant rip-off of The Thing though. Cracking episode. There's two blatant rip offs I've seen so far one involving Antarctica with the excellent Felicity Huffman and another in a volcano that's also really good. I'm on season 3 atm and I'm enjoying it. You're right that the monster of the week varies wildly in quality. Ones involving ghosts are generally bad but then the one with Harriet Samson-Harris and the demonic twin girls is superb. 2 hours ago, renton said: I feel like that one was over rated. I loved the one with the forest and the bugs from season 1. Darkness Falls? Another good episode. 49 minutes ago, Miguel Sanchez said: Hold on, there's more The f**k is this?

NotThePars Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 I do agree with the Alba heads on here in that I don't see why some rando on Twitter is somehow meant to be indicative of what party policy is. Unless "7ANTHEA6" is another Wings burner account. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I don't really see the point of caring about shite like that, as if every party doesn't have equally shitty rockets supporting them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocketman Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 re the X-Files, the monster of the week/stand alone episodes got so much better as the seasons went on and became the highlights whereas the over-arching conspiracy theory arc got dragged out beyond any sense/consistency. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I'd say season 1 had the best monster of the week in Tooms, even if technically, it was the monster of two weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 2 hours ago, NotThePars said: Tooms rocked. The quality control is mental in the first couple of seasons but when it hits it hits. My favourite example of that was this one: Space (The X-Files) - Wikipedia Quote Series creator Chris Carter was inspired to write "Space" after reading about news of the "face on Mars"—an instance of pareidolia wherein a mound in the Cydonia region of Mars was taken to resemble a human face. The episode was conceived as a low-budget bottle episode, due to several earlier episodes having exceeded their budgets. Although the episode made use of a significant amount of inexpensive stock footage from NASA, the construction of the command center set was subject to cost overruns, eventually leading the episode to become the most expensive of the first season. Mulder and Scully serve basically no purpose. They don't do anything, they just turn up and watch one guy have a mental breakdown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These utter fruitloops genuinely believe that young children are instructed in cunnilingus techniques, because they read terrible, terrible newspapers, and choose to believe the contents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
