The X-Files is back on Fox tonight after the football game (around 10p), and the show still scores a touchdown nearly 14 years after it went off the air. I have seen the first three episodes of the six episode event, and there is something for all the fans of the show and for people who have never seen it.
Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) have gone their separate ways. He is still looking into controversies and she is back to being a doctor. Then when Tad O’Malley (Joel McHale), an online conspiracist, is taken seriously by many people, Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) gets the two of them together again. O’Malley takes the two of them to meet with someone they have met before and she is still being visited by the aliens. When Mulder doesn’t believe something about her story, what she reveals to him, when they are alone, changes everything. Now he believes her and truth is scarier than he thought.
Tomorrow night at 8p, they are back to investigating a strange occurrences. One that is more on the serious side of The X-Files, while next Monday’s episode is more on the fun side. I always preferred the latter type of episodes and I think next week’s show is close to perfection.
I know I am not saying much, but that is because I think fans need to experience this show as it happens and not have someone spoil it for them. So like I said at the top, there is a little something for everyone and because of that everyone will enjoy it.
