What with the new season of The X-Files, it was only natural that I would choose to feature Apt. 42 Revisited‘s review of the first episode of Season 10, an episode that has generated a lot of conversation and disagreement between hard-core fans and a lot of confusion among casual ones. I like the realistic,… Read More Apt. 42’s Review of The X-Files, Season 10, Episode 1: ‘My Struggle’
The hurried and packed nature of first episode of The X-Files revival left me feeling both incredibly happy and a little harried; the second episode left me happy and intrigued; the third episode left me laughing and elated. A brilliant Darin Morgan script was brought to life through great acting from our usual dynamic duo,… Read More TV Review: The X-Files, Season 10, Episode 3: ‘Mulder & Scully Meet the Were-Monster’
It was so nice seeing a new episode of The X-Files with the season opener, “My Struggle”. But while it revived something I had feared long dead (do you know the number of petitions I signed?) it was also an episode so crammed and cramped it left me feeling dissatisfied—kind of like when you overeat… Read More TV Review: The X-Files, Season 10, Episode 2: ‘Founder’s Mutation’
With his first new episode of The X-Files in over a decade, Chris Carter jumped straight back into the thick of things, giving viewers next to no time to catch-up or even to breathe. Which isn’t a bad thing. It just means that fans are going to have to do a lot of the guesswork… Read More TV Review: The X-Files, Season 10, Episode 1: ‘My Struggle’
It comes as no surprise to long-term readers of my blog that I love The X-Files. Reviewing every episode has been a long-term project of mine, second only to my X-Files Facebook Project. And so, until I have finished said project, I am lucky to have been given permission to share my friend Max’ reviews… Read More Apt. 42’s Review of The X-Files, Season 2, Episode 22: ‘F. Emasculata’
The reviews of episodes of The X-Files done by both Max at Apt. 42 Revisited and Darren at The M0vie Blog are almost as good as watching the episode’s themselves, each for their own reason. Darren’s reviews are well researched thesis-like essays that are a pleasure to plunge into. I have to admit that my… Read More The M0vie Blog’s Review of The X-Files, Season 3, Episode 1: ‘The Blessing Way’

Thursday 10 September 2015 marked the 22nd anniversary of the premiere of a show that was going to change television forever. Yes, smarty pants, I’m referring to The X-Files. In celebration, I put back up my top ten posts from The X-Files Facebook Project, and found it à propos to post Apt. 42 Revisited’s review… Read More Apt. 42’s Review of The X-Files, Season 1, Episode 24: ‘The Erlenmeyer Flask’
Two weeks ago, I featured post from the wonderful website Apt. 42 Revisited. X-Philes of course know that’s Fox Mulder apartment number. The team of Apt. 42 has done an amazing job of putting together a review of every episode of the show that are currently available (yay for Season 10 starting in January 2016!)… Read More The M0vie Blog’s Review of The X-Files, Season 2, Episode 15: ‘Fresh Bones’
Do you remember Kelly Kapoor from The Office? I always looked forward to seeing her on screen and wished for her to be more present, despite the fact that I found her character so gratingly annoying. It reminded me of my love-hate relationship with George Costanza on Seinfeld. It was the acting made the character… Read More TV Review: Season 1 of The Mindy Project
