Finally got around to watching episode three. I understand why some hate it, but I totally loved it. It had me cracking up the whole time plus there were some really great character moments IMHO.
Plus extra points for the tranny crack whore. :P I'm completely sold on the show coming back now. More after these please!

I have mixed feelings about episode 4. There was some decent character development on the Scully side of things and the concept of the monster was cool, but I found myself wanting more coverage of the monster / investigation in Philly.
And the theme of well-cast guest stars continues. I was excited to see Tim Armstrong from Rancid in this one.

Yeah they have something called Foxnow. It was something they had on commercials.

I agree this last episode was okay but let stellar compared to the others. I get it,
They way they harp on it so heavily obviously they are going to resolve it in some way by the end of this miniseries.
Preview of the next episode looked amusing though, who knows.

My thoughts are pretty similar- William's storyline pretty much has to be resolved in order to pay off the obnoxious segments focusing on him/his adoption/ghost William playing with Fox/etc in order to pay off this junk.
Shitty episode that doesn't give me much hope for the last few. Seems like this will be a failed experiment.

The whole William storyline from seasons 8-9 was awful to begin with. I wish they would have just dropped it this time around. I'm still enjoying the new episodes. Episode 3 was great.
Seasons 1 - 9 came out on Blu Ray back in December. The picture quality is a drastic improvement over the DVDs.

Yeah, I picked it up a couple weeks back, and my wife and I just started re-watching everything (it's been a few years since we last watched the series). X-Files is like a drug. It's so easy to lose a night doing little else.

Yeah, pretty much, but there's some decent monster of the week episodes in the later seasons.

Theres dozens of these shows.
This one was just over the top:

Ok so 2 story arc episodes and 2 monster of the weeks.
I really doubt they're going to wrap this all up in another 2 episodes.

No doubt its been asked...
After Anderson's pay dispute, would a further continuation see the light of day?

I'm fairly certain they're setting up a spinoff for agents Miller and Einstein, so they can continue the concept but pay the actors peanuts. I won't keep watching if that's the case.

The last episode made me think the same, but they are too much like carbon copies of Mulder and Scully for that to be the case.

Thing is its a new generation of viewers they may aim for in which case since no one these days really cares about the old series, they could just pull it off and shake off any associated controversy. I personally feel these new guys are too bland.
