Over the weekend Fox announced that it is in discussions to bring back the cult 90s TV series The X-Files for a 24: Live Another Day-style revival, and now David Duchovny has spoken about the prospect of returning as FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder, stating that he’s “more than happy” to do so. “[I’m] more […]
The X-Files Season 11 Finale Review – ‘My Struggle IV’
Matt Rodgers reviews the season finale of The X-Files season 11… We’ve been here before, the end I mean. Saying goodbye to Mulder and Scully has always been an experience tinged with frustration and sadness. The quintessential, “they should have ended it sooner” show, originally, erm, ended in 2002, with a two hour, 201st and […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 9 Review – ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’
Matt Rodgers reviews the ninth episode of The X-Files season 11… It goes without saying that this week’s episode of The X-Files should not be watched with your dinner, especially if you’re partial to a mixed grill. Mulder and Scully have investigated cults before – ‘Red Museum’ (season 2 episode 10, ‘The Field Where I […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 8 Review – ‘Familiar’
Matt Rodgers reviews the eighth episode of The X-Files season 11… Opening with a sequence that draws inevitable comparisons with Stephen King’s IT, this installment of The X-Files sets out to scare the pressed suit pants off you with a monster-of-the-week prologue that’ll haunt your dreams. A young boy is playing on a roundabout, singing […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 7 Review – ‘Rm9sbG93ZXJz’
Matt Rodgers reviews the seventh episode of The X-Files season 11… It’s date night for Mulder and Scully in this standalone episode of The X-Files swan-song series, one that attempts to do a Black Mirror with its humorous on-the-nose technological foreboding, but excels by taking an Inside No. 9 – A Quiet Night, dialogue light approach […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 6 Review – ‘Kitten’
Matt Rodgers reviews the sixth episode of The X-Files season 11… If this really is to be the final run of The X-Files, then ‘Kitten’ is either breadcrumb dropping for a Walter Skinner spin-off series (highly unlikely) or giving Mitch Pileggi’s long suffering, shadow-dwelling AD the send-off he deserves. Only ever afforded a single episode, […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 5 Review – ‘Ghouli’
Matt Rodgers reviews the fifth episode of The X-Files season 11… After the nostalgic high of The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat, The-X-Files comes back down to earth with a bump this week with the exposition heavy ‘Ghouli’. The title refers to a Slender Man invoking internet meme monster called Ghouli, who appears to be […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 4 Review – ‘The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat’
Matt Rodgers reviews the fourth episode of The X-Files season 11… At the heart of Darin Morgan’s X-Files episode ‘The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat’ is the theory of Mandela effect; fondly remembering something from the past that was just a little off. It’s a notion that could be easily attributed to not only the […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 3 Review – ‘Plus One’
Matt Rodgers reviews the third episode of The X-Files season 11… In an episode bookended by a playful David Duchovny at his smirking best, Plus One is season eleven’s first freak-of-the-week hour-long, and a return to scripting duties for series creator, Chris Carter. This feels like one of those mid-season filler episodes from peak X-Files […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 2 Review – ‘This’
Matt Rodgers reviews the second episode of The X-Files season 11… After last week’s polarising season premiere of The X-Files, an episode that while clunky, was at the higher end of the Chris Carter installment spectrum, Mulder and Scully are well and truly back to their best in this Glen Morgan written and directed hour-long. Known […]
