2bias 3 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Best programme ever. Getting a bit dated but still great to watch, If you watch through the whole nine series there is about 3 actors who appear as 2-3 different characters lol. One including Terry O'Quinn who played Lock in Lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 The last couple of seasons faded badly (although there were still some great eps) but before that it was brilliant. Still can't decide whether I prefered the monster of the week episodes or the ones with the smoking man, Krycek, deep throat, Mr X etc in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Mulder wasn't in the last couple of series much (although never truly gone especially as Duchovny directed a few episodes). That's when it struggled a bit although the T1000 came in as his replacement and was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 38815 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 T1000? Eh? I was never an avid watcher after the first few series, did they replace him with a fucking Terminator ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) Well Robert Patrick who played the T1000 came in as agent Doggett. He was pretty good and they did a bit of a role reversal where Scully was the one who believed and Doggett the skeptic. The problem was just that they ran out of steam somewhat in terms of one off episodes and the conspiracy arc after they killed off most of the main players in it.

Monkeys Fist 38815 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Ah, I see. If it had been an actual Terminator I might have hunted them out. Don't think I'll bother. Game of Thrones season 1 is warming up nicely, Ned Stark has just been stabbed in the knee for his wife kidnapping the midget, ( who is by far the best character so far). More tonight. Edit; spoilered just in case anyone else hasn't seen it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bias 3 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I liked the last few seasons, I got bored with the "monster of the week" episodes and you can actually buy just the mythology episodes. Agent Reyes was HOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) Not as hot as Scully! They were ok but I thought the whole super soldier bit was handled badly and killing off CGB and Krycek were big mistakes. I still enjoyed it when I watched them (I didn't actually see them when they were on originally) but no where near as much as those that went before. I do think when I go back to them I'll probably just pick out the mythology episodes and watch all them in a row.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Whatever happens credit to some great writing. The whole things being a cut above but this season there are so many potentials things that could happen. Also building up a massive list of possible candidates for a Tony clipping.

Gemmill 34606 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 except for the fact it was a cop out and only like that as i said before because of the behind the scenes issues That explanation doesn't make any sense though. And at best, it's speculation that fits for you cos you didn't like the ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it was the case, necessity often leads to much better results. The shark in Jaws would have been on screen much more given the choice....but because it looked like a floating turd they replaced it with a classic soundtrack and the power of suggestion to make the biggest money spinner of all-time up to that point.
