With the original conspiracy plot arc having fallen into a muddle of loose ends, once-hungry lead actors on the verge of big-screen careers and making demands for more time off or shots at writing and directing, and the initial wish list of monsters-of-the-week long exhausted, it's a miracle that by its seventh season The X-Files was still making its airdates, let alone managing something pretty good every other show and something outstanding at least once every four episodes. The season opens with a dreary two-parter ("Sixth Extinction" and "Amor Fati") and winds up with the traditional incomprehensible cliffhanger ("Requiem"), but along the way includes a clutch of episodes that may not match the originality of earlier seasons but still effortlessly equal any other fantasy-horror sci-fi on television. The highlights: "Hungry," a brain-eating mutant story told from the point of view of a monster who tries to control his appetite by going to eating disorder self-help groups; "The Goldberg Variation," a crime comedy about a weasely little man who has the gift of incredible good luck, which means Wile E. Coyote-style doom for anyone who crosses him; "The Amazing Maleeni," guest-starring Ricky Jay in a rare nonfantastic crime story about a feud between stage magicians that turns out to be a cover for a heist; "X-Cops," a brilliant skit on the TV docusoap Cops with Mulder and Scully caught on camera as they track an apparent werewolf in Los Angeles (season-best acting from David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson); "Theef," a complex revenge drama with gaunt Billy Drago as a hillbilly medicine man stalking a slick doctor; "Brand X," a horror-comic tale of corruption in the tobacco industry; "Hollywood AD" (written and directed by Duchovny), in which Tea Leoni (Duchovny's wife) and Garry Shandling are cast as Scully and Mulder in a crass movie version of a real-life X-file; and "Je Souhaite," a deadpan comedy about a wry, cynical genie at the mercy of trailer-trash masters who haven't an idea what to wish for. --Kim Newman

 It's the X-Files February 1, 2010
Tina Granzo (Portland, OR)
There's not much to say about this. Either you love the X-Files or you don't. Some seasons were better overall than others, but I love them all. Excellent dvd set.
Classic X-Files Thrills February 1, 2010
M. Birk Abitz (Sheboygan, WI, USA)
I'm never disappointed with the X-Files. Couldn't get by these winter months in between season premieres without this.
xcops episode January 5, 2010
A. Butler (the big D)
i thought this episode would be bad, but i loved it! they did a great job in merging xfiles and cops. what you would think would be an impossible feat became a quite cleaver episode. funny, but still staying with the xfile theme and characters. can't wait to check out more episodes ....

If you've liked all the other seasons of X-Files, then of course you'll like this one. Lots of good 'to be continued' episodes, and one where "Cops" and X-files come together for some interesting one-liners! Unforgettable. There's even a crazy video game episode where Scully embraces her inner gamer girl and kicks some serious butt.
