It's sad ending for one of the best broadcast television shows. The whole dream sequences of life with their child ruined the other episodes. I'm still not sure why they had that fight scene, are they going to sell a Kung Fu action gripe Mulder doll?
The season finale sucked. Nothing carried any weight, problems were much too easily discerned and resolutions too easy and too fast. It all seemed glaringly staged.
It did feel more like a trailer than an episode. Duchovney has said in interviews he doesn't think he and Anderson are up to doing a full length season but I'm really not sure why. He looks like he's in great shape. The Twin Peaks revival's going to be nearly twenty episodes and the stars of that show have aged just as much. But maybe that's just David Lynch being more committed to what needs to be done for his story.
What I'm not happy with is that Chris Carter squeezed an epic story of global apocalypse into 87 minutes, the apocalypse we were warned about way back...well, way back.
It felt horridly rushed, whether meant to end the series once and for all or to tease something possibly yet to come. To have had any new X-Files at all was amazing, but that quick arc of leaps and reasoning was almost a disservice to the character of Scully in an episode clearly meant to honor her history and that of the show.
