Just skip the majority of the plot episodes unless they involve The Lone Gunmen or Mr. X.

The show has really good monster of the week episodes. The plot/lore has some good parts but is mostly WHERE IS MY SISTER > ALIEN CLONES ? > SUPER SOLDIERS ?? > SCULLY'S ALIEN DNA BABY!~ > SYNDICATE POWER PLAYS > EVEN MORE SUPER SOLIDERS > X-Files Reboot plot episodes that are even more terrible / mostly recap.

Even Season 8-9 have some decent monster of the week episodes, even though Mulder is gone.

Also, I actually think the second movie is good. Its a long episode unlike the first one which is plot poo poo.

Humbug
Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose
War of the Coprophages
Jose Chung's From Outer Space
Home
Unusual Suspects
The Post-Modern Prometheus
Bad Blood
How the Ghost Stole Christmas
Arcadia
X-Cops
Hollywood A.D.
Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster

Its mostly the comedy episodes. But every time x-files comes up in gbs it is people talking about jose chung (which is a good episode though).


I like Fallen Angel is season 1 a lot. As it sets the tone for x-files really well.

Mr. X being a unhinged assassin and Krycek being the worlds worst assassin is probably not true to the show but thats how I remember it.

I never watched it. Is is a serial or can you watch any episode at any time? Is it on Netflix?


It has a lot of motw episodes that can be watched whenever. Plot episodes are typically the first and last 2 of a season, until you get near season 7 - 9 which are mostly plot.

I always like the episodes with Michael McKean as the sleazy Area 51 guy

That episode has some good mulder moments. Dancing in his underwear in front of a mirror. Waking up to his not-wife yelling at him for having porn on.

I think they are referring to 3 which is about a vampire cult thing where there are 3 vampires in a 'unholy trinity' or something.

3 was definitely written by a nerd. Vampire dance clubs; woman vamp that gets the hots for mulder; 'blood sports' instead of 'water sports' (lol)
