Sebastian L @RT53077800 01/13/2024 There really seems to be an X-files before and after the first movie. Apart from the season and mid-season finales season six seems to be a hodgepodge of wacky leftover ideas. Although some of them are indeed entertaining, the show has stopped taking itself seriously. Ironically Duchovny is maturing as an actor and the chemistry between him and Anderson is better than ever. See more Bruno V @RT13830604 03/30/2023 Temporada horrorosa, arrastada e tudo de ruim. Será um divisor para o fim? Será que compensa continuar? See more Tim L @RT73328012 08/11/2021 This season keeps giving.

Fortunately, beyond the obvious merit of the dynamic between Mulder and Scully, the sixth season of The X-Files definitely has enough good episodes to outweigh the more underwhelming ones that stand out in their own different ways. The "Speed" episode, without which Breaking Bad wouldn't exist in the way we know it today. The episode with Bruce Campbell who delivers a terrific performance that could've lead to him playing John Doggett. And of course, "Triangle", full of excellent camerawork and seamless editing to give off the impression all four segments are one long take each. The penultimate episode was pretty effective too. Attempts to change the status quo felt somewhat pointless since 12 episodes later, Mulder & Scully are back working on them without fear of repercussions as if the last couple of episodes didn't happen. Especially since anybody who only watches the MOTW episodes will be confused by why "Skinner" is black now. As well as the fact that the first episode relies on you having seen the movie to understand just what the hell everybody's on about. The sixth season marked the point where the show wasn't going to be earning the same level of acclaim the first five seasons but there was still enough competence from Chris Carter and co. to make the first non-Vancouver season a pretty enjoyable new beginning.
