DVD Reviews of The X-Files - The Complete Eighth Season (Slim Set)

DVD Review: What Happened?!?!?!?!
Summary: 1 Stars

I have been watching all seasons on DVD and enjoying them thoroughly. Season 8, however, is not very good in comparison to the prior seasons. Very disappointing.
The only thing that was worse than Season 8, was season 9. Holy canollies! Rubish... seriously.
If you are dying to see either Season 8 or 9, do youself a favor and just read a synopsis of what happened on-line. If you watch these two seasons, you will never get those hours of your life back...
I would, however, recommend seasons 1-7. Those were very enjoyable and quite creative.

DVD Review: Ended up better than I thought
Summary: 5 Stars

I like others here are truly devoted to the X-files. When this season started out I had a hard time with Robert Patrick, not because I don't like him but he isn't Mulder. The character's attitude was almost too much and too opposite to take in the beginning but he did come around and in fact showed why he was picked for this job and how good the writers were. I liked how the writers move in agent Reyes with Doggett and I agree if they wanted to go maybe a couple or so more years they could have done it even without the Scully character. That doesn't mean Scully wasn't great but in fact that the new actors were holding their own. After Mulder comes back and then you have Mulder, Scully, Reyes, Doggett and of course A.D. Skinner you can really see how good those actors were in this series and how well cast they were. But after watching 8 out of 9 seasons in succession one funny thing that I related to was that the characters were trying to do their jobs amidst of all the political stuff of the FBI, which was not unlike my 12 year careeer in the Navy. Even though I liked all the seasons I particularly like following the alien abduction and or colinization parts, but I also know that without the other "side stories" it may have gotten old fast.

DVD Review: Still interesting even without Mulder
Summary: 5 Stars

Well, I thought for sure it would be sunk without Mulder, but it's still hanging on. The new guy is interesting in a different way, even though the chemistry is different between the two. I have to admit I do not like the new girl at all, though. I grimace whenever she comes on screen, but many of the stories are interesting and Scully, Skinner, and Scully's new partner still keep me engaged.

DVD Review: Different x files
Summary: 4 Stars

I enjoyed the x files from start to finish mainly because it was smart, hip ,engrossing, and intelligent. I also finally got the eight season and am very pleased with it. I must disagree with those who say that Robert Patrick can/did fill David Duchovny's shoes and was just as compelling as Duchovny. Patrick , while a solid actor,has none of the charisma and sex appeal of Duchovny. I actually found him to be plodding at times. The x files was truly built around the relationship between the mulder and scully characters and its gradual blossoming over the run of the show. The loss of Duchovny in the eight season just heightens ones awareness of this fact.His absence from the show , however,was made less poignant because his name was mentioned frequently. Duchovny also brought a vulnerability to the fox mulder character that robert patrick simply could not match. I did enjoy " release"- not so much for the acting ( with the possible exception of cary elwes and the young actor who played the cadet) but for the beautiful, haunting, mark snow music. Just great! it was definitely a different season for the x files but still better than most of the shows on tv today.

DVD Review: Good Purchase
Summary: 5 Stars

Quick service, good price and good quality product. Very pleased with purchase and seller!
