Casting [Haley Joel] Osment, expert at unnerving creepiness, in a dual role as father and son is a perfect embodiment of the story's themes of stagnancy. Go to Full Review

This episode is (literally) toothless; there's no commentary here on why the government hopes to heighten people's fears in order to incite violence...but in a story with a lot of open ends, Mulder and Scully still make sense. Go to Full Review

Tonight's episode was solid. Not the best of this season, but certainly not the worst. Go to Full Review
