    This guy builds worlds with words and whiskey.  He has contributed to PDI Press’ first two Noirlanthotep anthologies as well as the punk rock dystopian short story collection American Carnage.   He has authored The Perilous Journeys of Pericles, a misbegotten science fiction adaptation of a misbegotten Shakespeare play (available on Amazon for Kindle).  He is currently pulling his hair out over a novel that just never seems to get any closer to completion.  He lives in Jersey, but is usually only willing to admit it when the conversation turns to pizza and/or access to great record shops. If you buy him a couple of drinks, he’ll show you his irredeemably nerdy tattoo.

    The X-Files 10.05 “Babylon”

    Sure, it’s something of a “Ripped from the Headlines”/“Very Special Episode” of the X-Files, but the feel is loose and jaunty enough to separate it from the tired tropes of the countless acronym procedurals over on the other stations.

    The X-Files 10.04 “Home Again”

    I’ll admit I was caught a little flat-footed going into this episode of The X-Files.

    I’m just going to damn it all, embrace the love and rave for a bit. Because this was an hour of The X-Files I didn’t want to end.

    The X-Files 10.02 “Founder’s Mutation”

    This was the X-Files we were hoping for when this project was announced.

    Ultimately, having the X-Files back is a great thing.

    In the end, The X-Files: I Want to Believe is worth a second visit, even if you were disappointed the first time around.

    If this were truly the end of the X-Files, it would have been a bittersweet yet completely satisfying conclusion.

    I beat on this horse quite often in this forum, but I can’t help but consider Breaking Bad to be in some small ways, a part of the legacy of the X-Files.

    I’m not sure I’d consider the ninth season of the X-Files to be a reboot as much as it was an act of gentrification.

    The “Mulder and Scully Era” of the X-Files was winding down, which necessitated the introduction of Annabeth Gish’s Agent Monica Reyes.

    Throne of Blood (1957)

    But, everything else aside, Throne of Blood is an actor’s film.

    This is actually the pivotal fifth season episode of The X-Files we never got to see.

    In my opinion, X-Files creator Chris Carter rather successfully performed a soft reboot of his own show.

    This was a tremendous season finale, and a perfect bridge into a brand new era for the X-Files, but it would have made a disappointing series finale.

    Is it just me, or does this season sort of feel like the dumping ground for story ideas that would have been used in the fourth season of Millennium had it not been cancelled?

    The X-Files entered its seventh season on something of a sour note.

    Chris Carter knew it was time to shift the X-Files' attention toward another facet of extraterrestrials’ presence on our planet.

    Judgement day had come for Walter Skinner. In the new paradigm of the X-Files, he had become an expendable element.

    It might be easy to dismiss the first part of this season as evidence that the X-Files had gone Hollywood.

    As it is a central thematic statement of the film and I happen to dig it, The X-Files (1998) will hereby be called “Fight the Future.”
