TV X-Files

[ECA]

New Season has started!

 

[caLLous]

I was fully intending to re-watch the first 9 seasons before this one but that hasn't happened. I guess I will archive it and hope to avoid spoilers before I get round to watching.

 

[Talivar]

I has same plan but only got up to S6 Episode 5

 

[LoopyLee]

Oh my god! SOOOO happy

 

[Moriath]

Are the new ones any good though?

 

[Wij]

Fuck no.

Scully: "Look Mulder. A puddle of water in the street. I suppose that was caused by the rain earlier."
Mulder: "You might think that but it could just as well have been left by Aliens from the planet Bowlarkz whose time-travelling robo-dinosaur ships leave behind water-trails. Let's see which is right."

Mulder turns out to be right. Every time. It's like William of Occam's missus nicked his razor to do her fanny and never gave it back.

 

[Trem]

Is Scully in the new ones? She has aged very well.

Hnnngh.

 

[Zarjazz]

Well that was bizarre ..

Mulder looks and acts like he's walked in straight from the set of Californication. Scully looks and acts like she's walked in straight from the set of Hannibal. Guess they both need time to remember their characters again.

What is the bloke from Community doing in this show? Seriously?!

"I was wrong about everything that happened before, there was no alien conspiracy." - But there are aliens and humans and a conspiracy and it's all very confusing and similar. Help!​

I can't tell if it wasn't very good or I just need time to readjust. But hey, its The X-Files, I'll keep watching.

 

[old.Osy]

I heard it's shit.

 

[Raven]

Was OK, if a little bizarre. Will watch a few and see how it goes

 

[Lakih]

It was odd seeing both of them again, the plot is so far... far fetched, but hooked into modern techno-paranoia... but all the old players seems to make some kind of appearance so there's that.
They sure jumped straight into it, no sneaking around hiding in bushes, building up to some "omg moment". It's X-files from act 1, scene 1, enter stage left.

 

[fettoken]

Going with the direction of present time, popular-culture references and what not, was a giant fail from Chris Carters side. The first episode lacks any finesse with regards to dialogue, scenery, character interaction etc.

Also, that guy from Community needs to go.

 

[Deebs]

Watched it, thought it was a bit meh.

Got excited when

Spoiler

they showed the zero point wormhole capable spaceship, want one ta.

Also

Spoiler

what where they scanning Nina (The Americans) for before they blew the shit out of her?

 

[ECA]

First ep was ok, second ep was better. Hopefully improves as it goes along.

 

[throdgrain]

Why is nothing on pb anymore?

 

[Scouse]

I heard it's shit.

I've heard it starts off shit but picks up steam.

Why is nothing on pb anymore?

EZTV?

 

[Zarjazz]

Why is nothing on pb anymore?

Isn't it all on kat.cr these days?

 

[throdgrain]

I was looking for Ripper St but not a sign :/

 

[Lamp]

Always liked the smoking man character

 

[ECA]

This weeks episode is hilariously ridiculous.

 

[throdgrain]

I cba with it

 

[Zarjazz]

This weeks episode is hilariously ridiculous.

That was one crazy and totally bonkers episode. It was like they were taking the piss out of themselves for some of the preposterous monster-of-the-week episodes they had in the original series.

 

[ECA]

I cba with it

You're missing quality plot.

 

[Moriath]

Gillian is fine

 

[throdgrain]

I've changed my mind.

 

[TdC]

sooooo...they're already playing the gratuitous bewbz card? not that I complain, but isn't it a bit early in the season? :-(

 

[Deebs]

I just watched the latest episode and I thought I was watching Supernatural with two new lead characters.

Well to be fair X-Files did do those kooky kind of episodes long before Supernatural even started

Yes, but still with some finesse. The whole series so far has been one long popular-reference challenge. Please stop it you fuckers. It's ruining the immersion and actually breaking the fourth wall. Possibly the worst mistake you can make.

I don't remember the original series being a comedy, actually I cannot remember watching an episode quite like number 3 in the original series. Could be that my memory is failing but truthfully, I thought it was utter bollox and didn't enjoy it one bit, get back to the seriousness and conspiracy theories as I am sure that was in the original series.
