Overview

[Season 1] / [Season 2] / [Season 3] / [Season 4] / [Season 5] / [Season 6] / [Season 7] / [Season 8] / [Season 9]

Season 8 is probably the weakest X Files season for me. Doggett was always kind of stoic and dull for me. I was a Monica Reyes fan and loved Annabeth Gish's more open minded agent who nevertheless was a good investigator. The stories were unmemorable. Reading these episode titles, I can barely remember the plot of any of them apart from the introduciton of Reyes episode. Definitely flagging
