DVD Reviews of The X-Files - The Complete Sixth Season (Slim Set)
DVD Review: Best Season
Summary: 4 Stars
From the highly imaginative "Dreamland" complete with the Marx Bros Mirror scene to alien baseball, Halloween Christmas style to the beginning of the UFO madness, this has got to be the best X-Files season while the Scully and Mulder team were together full force. There are no bad or even mediocre episodes in this collection. Well worth the price.DVD Review: Progressively sillier
Summary: 4 Stars
After season 3 The X-Files seemed to go down hill in story quality, but especially after season 5 the silliness of the characters and the stories has increased dramatically. Despite this criticism, this is still a great series and a good season 6. Duchovney and Anderson continue to deliver superb acting, and there are many must-see episodes.DVD Review: Six of the best
Summary: 5 Stars
Season six packs an emotional wallop unlike any other series! Especially true of "Milagro", "Field Trip", "Monday" and the myth-arc "finale", "Two Fathers"/"One Son". Also, Dreamland is a treat; Michael McKean & David Duchovny are vaudevillians par excellence.
The blend of humour & horror can be a little choppy, but this season has a weight lacking in most of the earlier seasons.
One bone to pick: Scully's truculent scepticism started to grate, although, thankfully, Mulder gave her pause to rethink this in "Field Trip".
The shift in locale to the Western U.S. also added to the show's visual and dramatic scope: episodes such as "Drive", "Dreamland" and "Arcadia" were well suited to, and enhanced by, the arid settings.
Favourite eps: "Milagro", "Monday", "Dreamland", "Field Trip" (aptly titled) & "Triangle"
DVD Review: I can understand why this season is considered to be the beginning of the end of X-Files
Summary: 4 Stars
While I still enjoyed this season, there are some reasons why it wasn't as good as previous seasons:
1. Moving to California definitely changed the look of the series. It suddenly became so sunny and clear, the dimness and spookiness of Canada was gone! And it took a while to find good lighting for Scully, for most of the season she looked old.
2. Too many comedy episodes in the beginning of the season. At some point I started thinking it became some kind of parody of X-Files, not actual X-Files.
3. The main mytharc was totally finished off, and very quickly. I was very sad to see this story line go. So many years to build it and then 2 episodes and it's all over. Where do X-Files go from here?
4. Finally, I got really tired of all the flirting between Scully and Mulder. Like many, I wanted them to be together, but I didn't want to be teased. Either go all the way, or let their relationship be the way it used to before, I say.
That being said, it was still great season, just a little thin on really great episodes.
DVD Review: first BAD season
Summary: 2 Stars
A new fan of these series I fell in love with the show becoming addicted to it, talking about nothing but The X Files, etc. The movies was great. However the return to the show was very disappointing. I really enjoyed that once in a while there would be a "comedy" X Files episode to have some variety, but on this season they over did it. Most of this season is comedy, and some of them very cheesy comedy. Only a few episodes are serious like the good old classic X Files episodes, and even some of those "serious" episodes have some moments of cheesy comedy that turn you off.
The 2nd disappointment is something on the "Mulder/Scully" subject (don't wanna go in detail to give any spoilers). Something unexpected is happening with their partnership in the movie. It doesn't get solved in the movie which made me think it was a very smart way to make people watch this season hoping this matter was solved or at least talked about. Wrong, I'm still waiting for that conversation between the 2 of them. This season makes it seem like that moment of the movie (my fav part) never even happened.
As most fans I used to think "wouldn't it be nice if they did the show again?", but it is seasons like this that make you go "nah, just leave it the way it is".
I would definitely try to rent this season before wasting your money, unless you are a collector and you must have all the DVDs.
Description of The X-Files - The Complete Sixth Season (Slim Set)
Studio: Tcfhe Release Date: 12/02/2008 Run time: 820 minutes Rating: NrFollowing the X-Files feature film in the summer of 1998, "The Beginning" quickly crowbars an attempt at fitting the film into the TV chronology before it picks up plot points left dangling from the fifth-season finale, "The End" (note the guard asleep at the nuclear power plant console is named Homer!). Between arc threads are several pleasing excursions: time travel to a Bermuda Triangle boatload of Nazis ("Triangle"), further temporal escapades akin to Groundhog Day ("Monday"), a demonic baby case featuring genre stalwart Bruce Campbell ("Terms of Endearment"), and Duchovny being able to play someone else via personality switching ("The Dreamland, Parts 1 and 2"). Back in the real scheme of things, Mulder chases "S.R. 819," a Senate resolution tying conspiracies together. "Two Fathers" and "One Son" indicate that the abductee experiments are intended to cure the black oil disease. The year finishes with "BioGenesis," in which we're asked to ponder, are we from Mars? A beach-buried UFO leaves Scully wondering. --Paul Tonks
