Wikipedia Episodes



I had only come across it by accident & saw it on the BBC America livestream late last Mon & tuned in when i could over the next few nites & the ep was aptly called "Darkness Falls" & looked it up on the wikipedia site & found out the next ep was Tooms

The character of Eugene Tooms has also attracted positive criticism. Author Neil Gaiman listed the character of Eugene Tooms as one of his favourite monsters in a guest column for Entertainment Weekly's 1,000th issue;[18] whilst UGO Networks listed the character as one of their "Best TV Serial Killers", describing Hutchison's acting as "uber-creepy".[19] Writing for Den of Geek, John Moore listed Eugene Tooms as his "Top 10 X-Files Baddies", noting that the popularity of both "Squeeze" and "Tooms" proved to be "largely responsible for shifting the emphasis of the show" away from dwelling solely on alien conspiracy-based mythology episodes.[20]

It also featured Mitch Pileggi's first time as Walter Skinner!

Although not the ideal ep to watch before goin to bed
So i watched Ronald as well

But they only showed the last four ep of Season 9 & skipped over the aptly named "Jumping the Shark"

It's a long time i remember some of the going's on in Season 9
With Scully pregnant & both Scully & Mulder an item

After 25 yrs some stand the test of time, some sadly don't,

What do you's think?

You do know they brought it back for a short run not too long ago.

Best TV series I've ever watched.

It was one of those rare shows that people discussed at school and in the workplace the next morning.

Very well produced. Great plots and writing.

Chris Carter said he was inspired and captivated by the supernatural 'Kolchak' series of the 1970s... which was also excellent.

Still one of my favs, every couple of years I give it a watch through.

the entire series and the season 10 are on amazon prime, just finished season 9...mostly it holds up despite getting a bit convoluted....Robert Patrick was a good addition imho

The first 4 or 5 seasons were great and then it just began to lose the run of itself a bit, Robert Patrick as Doggett was good just not as good as Mulder.

Still one of my favourite shows I loved the Darkness Falls and Ice episodes which I think are both in the first season.

Must really give it a watch again.
