Vince Gilligan pens his second X-FIles episode, “Pusher”, and it’s… okay? Then, in “Teso Dos Bichos”, the show falls down a well. Plus! Richard is very excited for “Jose Chung’s From Outer Space”. iTunes RSS
We get another mythology two-parter, but this one is less about shocking revelations and more about emotional growth, as Mulder and Scully work to figure out the events of “Piper Maru” and “Apocrypha.” iTunes RSS
Chris Carter does his own version of a Darin Morgan episode with “Sygyzy”, and Howard Gordon does his own version of a season one episode with “Grotesque”. iTunes RSS
“Revelations” is a spiritual successor (literally) to season one’s “Beyond the Sea”, as Mulder and Scully swap places. Then, Darin Morgan returns with “War of the Coprophages”, a delightfully deep and goofy episode about killer cockroaches. Yes, you read that right. iTunes RSS
The X-Files gives us the rapidly-becoming traditional midseason mythology two-parter with “Nisei” and “731”, and it also doesn’t give us much new information or answer any questions, but it’s certainly gripping! iTunes RSS
The X-Files gets postmodern this week in “The Walk” and “Oubliette”, two episode of the show that are more interested in being about The X-Files than about their plot. But hey, we’re extremely okay with this! iTunes RSS
The X-Files gets somewhat political this week in “The List”, and in “2Shy”, you whippersnappers that listen to this podcast get to experience the internet circa 1996. iTunes RSS
A young Jack Black and a young Giovanni Ribisi guest star in “D.P.O.”, and a older Peter Boyle guest stars in “Clyde Bruckman’s Final Repose”. Also! What is the best pie? iTunes RSS
We kick off season three of The X-Files by talking about the two (three?) parter “The Blessing Way” and “Paper Clip”. It’s exciting, dramatic, a little cheesy, but leaves us really excited for this season. iTunes RSS
We reach the end of season two of The X-Files with “Anasazi”, an alien conspiracy episode that quickly spirals out of control in the most fun way possible. Plus! Who is Skinner, anyway? iTunes RSS
