Which would you choose then? I don't know. Its been a while. But I would probably go with one of the alien conspiracy episodes since those tended to be the best ones.

New season has been incredible. Each episode has been a different facet of the show - full on alien abduction, silly monster-of-the-week, super-scary horror monster-of-the-week, supernatural sci-fi people with abilities. I've loved that it took all the different kinds of episodes we got with the series, and gave us some more of each. I really hope this continues, because it has more than made up for the atrocity that was the last two seasons of the original show.

There were a couple of decent stand along episodes but that's when it really became clear that the Alien/mythos episodes were always a complete mess and that they were never going anywhere.

The End - child chess progeny in danger Yeah. That's the last one I saw. That episode and the movie were supposed to wrap up The X-Files. From my understanding, season 6 is a soft reboot of the series. They even moved production from Vancouver to Los Angeles.

Mulder's departure was a big downfall for the show. As much as I like Robert Patrick, his arrival was when the show started dwindling in quality. I watched for the sake of watching the entire series, but I did not enjoy watching those last couple of seasons like I did the rest of the show.

No shit, did anyone else feel like that finale came out of nowhere? Bleh.
That'd be funny if the series ends like that.

I hate fanboys and I hate being associated with them. Their opinions are so radical they do more harm than good. Was the revival of The X-Files a piece of shit? Sort of. Were the later seasons of The X-Files a piece of shit? Probably. But that doesn't give people the right to reconstruct history. The X-Files, in its prime, was not a piece of shit. And Chris Carter, in his prime, wasn't a piece of shit either. The X-Files wasn't "90's good". It was good - period. I'll take X-Files in its prime over some of today's so-called "great television" like True Detective. Then again, I'm an old man. So what the fuck do I know?
