Monday 9 pm. Oh yes i am excited ๐
Been watching a load of old episodes in preparation ๐
I'm 6 episodes in to the full nine series box set ๐
Will record the new series and watch it when we finish these !
Reopened. ๐ณ
It's OK after tomorrow's episode it probably won't be spoiler free, you should close it then ๐

I'm saying nothing.
I'm just about to watch episode 3. Erm, because I'm in America, of course.
It's a Darin Morgan episode, I can't wait. I'm expecting this to be very silly.
<mod edit - I've amended the thread title to differentiate from the other one.>
I've just discovered the full series on Amazon Prime. I'm going to save the new series for a while.
I've seen all the new episodes because erm in in Englad and I have the Internet
and a eye patch ๐
What channel? Can't find it on C5 website listing..
edit: found it
nice touch with the fox in 3
I'm cautiously looking forward to this tonight...
I'm not sure I'll like it though, I used to love X-Files, but as the series wore on I liked it less, I preferred the one-offs about spooky shit in backwoods places, as it became more about this big conspiracy, men in black, super solders and all that goo stuff it was less for me.
I think the new ones are a continuation of that, but I'm trying to stay open minded.
You won't be disappointed P-Jay.
We've been steadily working our way through the lot, it feels like we've been doing it for years, there are so many of them!
Reading about the whole alien conspiracy malarkey suggests that they stopped it because it had got so complicated nobody really understood what was going on any more...
Watched the first 2 episodes last night, got the third to watch tonight.
Was too impatient to wait, but it's grabbed me again and I was very sceptical.

Now I know that, it makes that episode not so shit! ๐
I hear its only going to have 6 episodes and I didn't think much of the first 3.
The 3rd one was bloody great even if you didn't know who wrote it. Funny as hell the main guy played the part fantastically.
It's set to record for me, again a huge fan BITD but I'll record them and watch a few in sequence like I do with EXTANT.
I'm also *cough* in America so have not been using any illicit means to watch the first three episodes of the new series.
Good: Gillian Anderson (still gorgeous after all these years). Some very clever and funny moments taking the mickey out of current political and technological developments.
Bad: Nostalgic memories of being young and carefree, staying up late watching X Files and being scared out of my skin on more than one occasion. Watching it has made me feel very old.
I'm also slowly cracking through the old ones from the beginning. Currently at episode 19 of series 2, gonna be a while before I get to the new ones!
This guy still gives me the heebie jeebies...
An interesting article [url= http://www.denofgeek.com/x-files/93704/10_people_you_probably_didnt_know_were_in_the_xfiles.html ]here[/url] with some people you probably don't remember being in it. Like Jack Black.
Eugene tombs that guy scared the crap out of me but I was 13 at the time lol I can't wait not long now.
Not sure how well it will work on me now errrrmm, certain subtances are no longer eaten/smoked/drunk.
Is this for real?
I'm witnessing the most wooden acted, cliche ridden horridly scripted bunch of junk I think I've ever laid eyes and ears on.
Anderson is doing her best to remain professional, but Duchovny is clearly taking the piss out of the script writers, surely??!
I'm quite enjoying it
No offence, but you are easily pleased. It's utter tripe
That was f-ing ridiculous.
Disappointed .
3/10
Being generous. Shame, the early stuff with the freaks was brilliant before it too conspiracy heavy.
Guff, but great. Series linked!
I'm almost offended that they dared to make and bother to release such a half arsed attempt. Wrong on so many levels.
Duchovny never could act.
its's a conspiracy.
no it isn't
yes it is
no it isn't
yes it is
(repeat ad-infinitum till series ends)
Duchovny was great in Californication though
Mulder is his character from Californication just minus the sex.
It was ok, was a big fan back in the day so will see how this one goes as in I hope it gets better ๐
Duchovny was great in Californication though
That's exactly what the Mrs said during this episode, hence me wondering if he was genuinely hamming it up on purpose - some kind of statement of shiteness.
With some decent writing and production quality (the soundtrack was dire!) they have the basis for some classy sci-fi. Instead they appear to have just taken the uber easy option.
Whoever 'they' are...
episode 3 tho - Rhys Darby is amazing
I'll give till episode six if no improvement I'll be out.
Luckily, Mulder and rich conspiratist bloke explained the whole series plot to Gilliam Anderson towards the end of this first episode, (she probably didn't bother reading the script after it got so stupid) so I won't need to do one more, never mind 5.
Rhys Darby is in it ? My second favourite kiwi actor - I'm in.
Yup and he's brilliant in it.
OMG Episode 4 is blooming fantastic.
(See. No spoilers)
On tonight's watch list.
You were right much more like it. Even has torches in dark corridors.
the script was terrible.
