This episode answered the burning question that nobody was asking: what does Jack’s tattoo mean? Also, Kate and Sawyer make it back to The Island, though not to their camp right yet. They send Karl off to find Alex on his own. And Jack and all The Others in the prison/cage area [...]

Bob Dylan’s fifth Theme Time Radio Hour was on coffee. It seems that coffee is a popular topic for blues songs.
1. Prince “Starfish and Coffee”
2. Roger McGuinn “One More Cup Of Coffee”
3. Can “Bring Me Coffee Or Tea”
4. Mississippi John Hurt “Coffee Blues”
5. Bill Strength “Black Coffee Blues”
6. The Dandy Warhols “The Coffee And [...]

“Conduit” was an okay story, about a girl being abducted out of her trailer by The Aliens. Mulder was attracted to the case because it was remarkably similar to the story of his sister’s abduction. I think that was pretty much the point behind this episode. They mentioned his sister earlier once, [...]

“Squeeze” is the first monster episode of The X-Files! And a pretty good one. It was very creepy, and did a good balance of Scully Explanations with Mulder Explanations.
A series of murders where the victim’s liver was taken out are discovered, with no visible point of entry into the room by the murderer. [...]

Errr uh OK, so much to wrap your head around in this one. Desmond has, as I said earlier, been having flashes of the future. This helps him save Claire from drowning. Then there’s a flashback (maybe a flashforward?) where Desmond is living in London, and keeps having flashbacks (flashforwards?) to his [...]

Not In Portland! This episode seems to have a ton of things to think about, more than usual lately, and so I do not know where to begin thinking about them.
The flashback was for Juliet, who was some genius fertility doctor, being recruited by some shady medical research group–who I can only assume from [...]

Yes! After the last episode which I found added nothing new and wasn’t really all that dramatic (except for the end when Eko died), this one… this one rocked.
The flashbacks continue with the theme I’ve noticed of this season, where the characters are twisted in unexpected settings. Here, Kate was a [...]

This was an intriguing episode, based around UFOs and government conspiracies. In other words, cornerstones of The X-Files style. It wasn’t as creepy as the pilot was, but it was fairly interesting. Mulder finds a case in Idaho of a man reported kidnapped, which “smells like the paranormal.” He gets warned [...]

I dunno, this episode was boring. Flashbacks were about Eko and him trying to pick up where his brother left off as a priest, until killing some men who wanted to kill him for some reason I don’t know. Then on the island, Eko was seeing visions of his brother (again) and following [...]
