The X-Files (1993) - Review & Commentary

[Mister Obvious]

BAHAHAHAHAH, BIIIIIITCH!!!!!! I FUCKING KNEW CSM WAS MULDER'S FATHER!!!!!!!!!!!! I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dark Dick]

LOL. I've been thinking about "The SEX-Files" for the past few days.

I got the idea for an "In Search Of... The X-Files" episode.

Leonard Nimoy would be interviewing Scully and Mulder about their work.

Also, I think people mostly say "Scully and Mulder" instead of "Mulder and Scully".

[Mister Obvious]

MULLY AND SCULDER

[Mister Obvious]

Besides Mr. X, CSM is my favorite character. His dedicated episode "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man" (S4 E7) was really good, but it was also super sad. It explains who he is and why.

[Mister Obvious]

Most people say seasons 10 & 11 suck, but I actually think they're pretty decent.

I thought a solid 60% of episodes from the original series run were dumb.

I've never seen such ridiculous plotlines be explored in such a semi-serious tone...

But then, I guess that's what made the show so great in its day, so it's fine.

A lot of people like the "Monster of the Week" episodes, but I think they're the worst.

I skip most episodes, I'm really only interested in the ones that involve UFOs.

I read some spoilers that said Daddy Skinner gets straight up shot in the face in the last episode...

That pissed off the viewership and I think that's why seasons 10 & 11 are generally hated.

Skinner looks hot as fuck in the 2017 seasons, I mean the guy aged so well.

I think his character got so much better during the later seasons of the original show...

He sorta started off as a semi-hard assed doubter, but I think they all saw so much shit go down that they couldn't be so skeptical anymore.

If X-Files wasn't such an iconic show (cuz it is) then I would say over all it's pretty dumb.

That's my honest opinion.

Muldy and Sculler are hot, but is that really enough? If it wasn't for the sci-fi theme, it definitely wouldn't be.

All in all, I give the show a solid 6.5 out of 10 stars.

[Mister Obvious]

So Cigarette Man is Mulder's father AND William's father, but we were lead to believe that Mulder was William's father because Scully and Mulder were banging so hard back in the day, that was the natural assumption.

But no, turns out, CSM impregnated Scully "with science" and he's William's father.

So Scully's kid is Mulder's brother, even though Scully should have been having Mulder's kids, but if she ever did, William would be their uncle instead of their brother.

On a lighter note, the fan base agrees that S11 E4 "The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat" is one of the greatest episodes of the entire series.

[Mister Obvious]

I'm watching it right now and so far it's pretty dumb.

[Mister Obvious]

I'd rather fuck Skinner than Mulder, there I said it.

I don't really wanna fuck either one of them but if I HAD to...

Totally going with Daddy Skinner.

This episode has Mulder "Squatching" and apparently it's one of those episodes with a comedic tone to it.

Let's see if I can stay conscious through the whole thing and whether I agree with the fans that it's a great episode.

[Mister Obvious]

"Why aren't people getting probed by aliens anymore?" Lolol. Okay that was funny.

[Mister Obvious]

Ohhhh, shit, this episode is about the Mandela Effect...

This might actually be a good one after all.

[Mister Obvious]

And can I just say, most of the X-Files episode titles are...

Hot garbage.

I've been thinking that for a while, but it was time to say it.

[Mister Obvious]

I've also noticed that the dialogue is wordy as fuck...

Both Mulder and Scully talk pretty much the same and their casual convos consist of these long, laborious diatribes.

It's like dude...

Nobody talks that way. And it's fiction, I get it, it doesn't have to be realistic.

But sometimes it's hard to watch them deliver those lines. I wonder if they fucked up a lot and hard to restart.

[Mister Obvious]

LMFAO...

Okay, this episode is definitely good.

For the X-Files.

[Mister Obvious]

It's definitely a funny episode.

Gillian Anderson is still the best looking fucker in the show, no doubt about it.

They really try to play off her good looks in these last seasons, too.

It's like they knew that was one of the only things it had going for it.

[Mister Obvious]

That's one of the only things the show ever had going for it though, let's be honest.

I think an X-Files style show with Telly Savalas would have been fucking great though.

Apparently Kojak is on Amazon Prime... I should watch that instead.

[Mister Obvious]

I'd definitely hump Mulder though.

[Mister Obvious]

It's totally ridiculous that Scully has always worn high heels though.

I was noticing this while watching CSI: Miami for like 5 seconds the other night too...

They're all wearing suits and the chicks are wearing high heels. Absurd.

[Mister Obvious]

Lol, the poster in the background...

Scully is "Red Hot", and Mulder is "Luke Warm".
