Fug The Show: The X-Files Reboot, or You Can’t Go Home Again

Jessica — Tue, 23 Feb 2016 18:00:50 -0800

If you were reading my recaps of the new episodes of The X-Files earlier this month, you may have realized that they suddenly stopped appearing here. And that is because I stopped writing them, because I thought the reboot was terrible -- yes, even the one where the man is a were-lizard or whatever --…

Fug the Show: The X-Files, “Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster”

Jessica — Wed, 03 Feb 2016 18:00:52 -0800

I kind of wish people hadn't waxed so poetic about how great this episode was, because I think my expectations were too high, and I ended up lukewarm on it. Sorry! I'm sure this will cause many people to be enraged with me -- but it will please the commenter who popped by after the…

Fug the Show: The X-Files recap, episode 2, “Founder’s Mutation”

In case you missed it, the recap for Sunday's episode is here! (I thought it was kind of a hot mess. Apparently, fourteen years has not diminished my capacity to make fun of Chris Carter's dialogue.) That said: This Monster-of-the-Week episode was SO MUCH BETTER, although also quite Creepy-Gross in that classic X-Files way. I…

Fug the Show: The X-Files Recap, episode 1, “My Struggle”

Hey! Remember how I thought I wouldn't have time to recap this episode before the second one aired tonight? Apparently, I lied. Here you go! It's my gift from me to you, and it's cranky?

I kind of can't believe I am doing this again. Way back in the day, during The X-Files's first…

Your Afternoon X-Files

They've started filming the new episode of The X-Files in Vancouver, and I thought you might want to be reminded of what Scully's Skeptical Face looks like. Let's also talk about her outfit (it's good) and what we think is happening in this episode (with bonus appearance from Joel McHale), and the fact that I…
