Well I just finished season 8 of the X-Files last night. Damn what a great season. With Mulder basically being replaced by Dogget I honestly wasn't expecting to like it much but I just loved it. The stand alone episodes were as creative and fun as usual and the main story arc eps were the best they've been since Two Fathers/One Son. Well here's my top 5 of the season...
Within/Without - This was just a great season opener and a great way to introduce Dogget and get the season started. And the alien bounty hunters are always fun. ![]()
Roadrunners - Fun, creepy episode.
Redrum - A brilliant episode about a guy going backwards in time slowly seeing the pieces come together and seeing how his wife got killed and eventually saving her, I loved it!
This Is Not Happening/DeadAlive - Great, month spanning two parter that brought Mulder back for the rest of the season. Loved Mulder saying "who are you?" to Scully when he woke up. Hated Scully's cheesy "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" ![]()
Existence/Essence - Just an awesome, exciting season finale. I was actually scared those Super Soldiers were gonna take Scully's baby. I'm not sure why they didn't. Maybe he really isn't what they thought he was, who knows. It's a bit sad that Krycek is dead, I just loved to hate that guy, ya know?
Well only 20 episodes left for me to see, I can't wait to see how it ends. ![]()

Surekill
Salvage
