Includes such important episodes as the series pilot, in which agents Mulder and Scully meet for the first time; "Deep Throat," in which the duo investigate mysterious government aircraft; "Beyond the Sea," in which Scully's dead father may be trying to communicate with her; and the season finale, "The Erlenmeyer Flask," in which evidence of alien experiments is uncovered. Episodes previously unreleased on video include "Young at Heart" in which Mulder must contend with an old nemesis who seems to have come back from the dead; "Roland," in which a slow-witted janitor seems to be responsible for a series of murders in a jet lab; and many more. Includes interviews with series creator Chris Carter, interactive DVD-Rom material, and other special features. A must for any fan of the series. [More]

The first and by far the best season of the groundbreaking X-Files TV series.

Before it became an icon and spiraled down into irrelevance, The X-Files gave us some of the best moments on television.

A creepy blend of suspense, intrigue, horror, science fiction and humour.
