When you're online, Mulder looks like he has a green bullet hole smack through the middle of his forehead.

That was my first thought too when I saw it. I'll use this one instead.
Better. I thought you might be eliminating the competition, but Scully's a little old for you.

Scully is like a fine wine. Boiiinnnggg.
Getting pretty excited. I rewatched S10 min series. It's actually pretty on par with the original series, 4 winners, 2 meh...
If we get that mix for 10 episodes I'll be thrilled.
I heard Gillian wants season 11 to be her last. I also understand agents Einstein and Miller will return this season:
Might they get the lead roles in season 12?

No X-files without Mulder and Scully, just like there shouldn't be 24 without Jack Bauer.I heard Gillian wants season 11 to be her last. I also understand agents Einstein and Miller will return this season:

I don't think it's bad, just don't know what is going on. Was the last episode of last season all a hallucination/vision of Scully's?

These guys are no-shows so far.
I'm really loving Season 10 and 11 combined. Nostalgia can poison the mind and there are people out there acting like all 9 seasons were gold...they weren't.
My own ranking of X-Files quality is now:
1. S3-S4-S5 arc (even then there was a clunker here or there)
1A. Fight the Future Movie
2. S1 and S2
bit of a gap here
3. S10 and S11
4. S6 and S7 (debatable, but for me I am enjoying the energy of 10/11 much more)
5. I Want to Believe Movie
another big gap
6. S8 and S9
These 16 episodes, unless there's a nose dive, are going to be the best X-Files since the "golden age" of S3-S5.
That's crazy that I had the same experience losing track of it about that same time when I started at ISU. It was harder to keep up with shows then...in middle school and high school I'd set a tape to watch/rewatch my favorite shows (X-Files, SNL, Seinfeld) because I didn't have much else to do especially when we were living in a really boring town in Nebraska and the internet was just a baby. The X-Files could beat out a Friday night in a town I couldn't stand, couldn't beat out almost any night of college especially after it lost something.
I rewatched straight through in '05 mostly by myself...and then again around '10 when I got my wife hooked into it (shipper gets them). There's something after 5/movie where it just loses steam. 6 and 7 aren't "bad", still way better than 99% of network TV. But it just didn't have it.
I actually think of the 11 new episodes we've gotten that about 4-5 of them really have the best of the old feel...which is to say not as good as the S3-S5 heyday, but better than the later years.
Have no clue what is going on right now. It's not coming in very good. Only channel that is like this, started right at 7:00.
Yeah, I tend to agree but thought it was still solid. I mean, that scene with William in the hotel room when the bad guys rush in? Damn! That was awesome.
