Yeah, that’s a fucking rad painting. If that guy wanted to paint me, I’d let him throw as much sperm on there as he wanted. He could put my head on a sperm and I’d be like, hey, guy, you do you.

Any phrase starting with “Sean Hannity thinks....” or “Sean Hannity says....” holds the same weight among people who aren’t fucking imbeciles as “My dog thinks....” or “My hamster says....”

It’s a stretch though. I mean, could also be a melted ladle, a baited fish hook, a vein in a man’s head (okay it actually is this one), a map to the place where Nic Cage can find the declaration of Independence...

“Pete Davidson has no business being on SNL—no characters, imitations, stage presence or acting abilities”

Was already eye-rolling your aggressively angry comment about a TV show and then you used the term “betas” and it all made sense. Carry on being an embarrassing trash person.

There are other reviewers that seem fine with this episode.

Even after last season I’m still greatly offended by his use of the title “My Struggle” which is a direct translation of the title of Hitler’s screed “Mein Kampf”. You can claim that its merely a coincidence but the phrase ‘My Struggle’ has nothing to do with either episode. Its not descriptive of anything. So why did…

I’m guessing that back in the heyday there was a writer’s room. I’m guessing that now, with these 6 ep seasons, Chris and whomever two or three others barely meet. They write these things completely alone in their separate corners of California, never meet until production time, and only then give each other…

I remember literally nothing about last season except that one Darin Morgan episode. At this point there’s just nothing else you can squeeze from the conspiracy storyline that’ll make any kind of impact. They’ve turned that screw so many times that it’s completely stripped. I’ll still watch this for the…

So there is a Skinner-centric episode coming up - including backstory. Not sure which episode it is offhand, but it’s coming.

As for the dialogue, I imagine CC stands in front of a mirror all day teaching himself how to spout exposition without actually saying anything that has meaning to the words.

I’ll never understand why they love sidelining Anderson so much when she’s definitely the strongest actor they have.

I almost wish that reveal wasn’t there because it seems to be distracting people from how badly executed everything else in the episode was.

Nope. Just nope.

at this point, i think bottle episodes are the only thing that can work any more. there were so many reversals & revelations that i don’t know how anyone can remember what the through-storyline is anymore - were there ever aliens? were they good or bad? did the government make them up? it’s like when your…

Great, looking forward to a few good episodes moving forward. I did not watch this and I will not be watching any Carter penned episode. The episodes last year were so bad that I simply refuse. Smoking Man, Virus, destroy the world to recreate it (so a bond villain now). Here’s to episode 2!

No. I’m sorry, but just no. Any redeeming qualities this episode my have had were immediately erased the second they revealed CSM raped Scully. I don’t care if it was physical assault or he “impregnated her with science” (as Chris Carter told EW). I’m shaking with rage. Scully is a character women have looked up to…

Carter, you’ve lost your damn mind.

Clearly, the missing piece to the X-Files in Chris Carter’s mind was rape babies, I guess.
