I agree. I remember when they first introduced "Samantha" as an adult in "Colony" (I think), it was a HUGE shocker, even though she was a clone. But then we re-met her in "Herrenvolk"… and then in "Redux II"… and then there were random flashback episodes ("Paper Hearts", "Dreamland II", etc.)

I love season 7 for some reason (as I do for 6 and 8). That's probably why I enjoy "Signs & Wonders". The whole concept of tolerating other religions is really analyzed in a different and interesting angle in the episode. And it's pretty scary.

I agree with the "Closure" bit. The plot doesn't make really any sense (although it has a small callback to season two's "Red Museum" which is kinda cool), but the conclusion really does give the characters (and the viewer!) some nice closure.

Angels never saved Samantha…

I lot of people dislike the episode because they feel Scully shouldn't have killed some one in cold blood. Maybe I'm just a bad person (And, to defend myself, I don't usually think the ends justify the means), but I feel that Pfaster got what he deserved and Scully needed to pull that trigger. Not only did it give

I never got the impression that Mulder was a total atheist. I always thought he was just really, really anti-organized religion.

A LOT of people that watched the series when it aired really love "Rush", and I don't exactly know why. Maybe because it was one of the first "return to basics" of season seven. It's a fun episode, but it wouldn't stand out as my favorite.

That's a good point. I guess I just enjoy it from a "enjoyment" standpoint alone. While that's probably a pretty good reason as to why it shouldn't be an A episode, I do find it pretty awesome. But a "B" grade is fine with me.

While my favorite season of ''The X-Files'' are the sixth and seventh (I love the experimentation), season seven doesn't have as many "Gold" episodes as other seasons. That being said, I think "Hungry" is a really great late-series entry. It, along with "X-Cops" and a few others, really make the seventh season a good

This was a really good episode; potentially the best in 2-3 seasons. It was a little loony, but understandably so. I loved the tower subplot and the fact that the Dunder-Mifflinites don't really care about losing customers anymore. The whole "Hitman" subplot was cute, too, and incredibly goofy, but it came across as

Yeah, that part of the mythos I never bought. Considering Scully and Mulder went up against angels and shit all the time! :P
