I didn't stop watching, I just got very sidetracked!

SleeplessThe best line in my notes for this episode is "collective unconscious dream woo woo bullshit," because that's the perfect explanation of this episode's Mulder Moment. You know what I mean. When Mulder says, "But what if it's [incredibly unlikely woo woo explanation]," and everyone ( Read more... )

Episode 21: Tooms
This is one of those episodes that makes softlykarou angry because it has psychologists on TV, and that never ends well.

Episode 9: Space
Murder ghosts weren't bad enough, I guess, so now we need space ghosts!

Watched more X-Files with softlykarou and chronicluscious and I wanted to post about it. Enough so that I made a tag for it. I'm not going to post about every episode--I already missed episodes 1-5, so--but I'll post occasionally.

Episode 6: ShadowsSo I already wrote about how it's a problem that Mulder's always right, but this episode kind of drove that home. Alien ( Read more... )

So yesterday, softlykarou, chronicluscious, and I watched the X-Files, which I have never seen before.
