UNCUT - The X-Files S1E10 - Fallen Angel

"Quaid...start the reactor!" the colonial was the host to Kuato in Total Recall probably his most recognizable role. Can't stop won't stop now the show only gets better from here! Let's keep it going! Some really stellar episodes still to come this season can't quit at 13!

Let's go for the Long Haul everyone.

One of the best of season 1. The next episode, Eve, is one of the best of the series!

'el government' is spanish for 'the government' it was hiding in plain sight the whole time

I also like the officious military prick saying to Scully we‘ RE not in the emergency room anymore Not because he’s being a prick in that scene, But he is justifying the viewpoint that everyone has of him as limited in scale and intellectual stature

I love it with a officious military prick gets put in his place by professionals doing their job such as Doctor Oppenheim

i love the x files reactions

The colonel also played a general in Starship Troopers

I'm in it for the long haul with the X Files

So many amazing on fire lines in this episode, absolute fire! My favorite, "And no one, no government agency has jurisdiction over the truth" Damn right!

I signed up for these dumb asses reacting to DS9 but I think I actually prefer these dumb asses reacting to X-Files.

Your Mulder and Scully impressions are so on point most of the time

I will stay a Patreon member after deep space nine if you guys keep on the X-Files

love it. keep it going

I want to believe, that you have no plans to quit this series.

Rewatching these episodes with you guys, it's striking what a high level Chris Carter and his writers were already working at in season one, especially with the Mulder / Scully relationship. And as much as Duchovny and Anderson were great casting, the guest star actors are consistently of a high caliber as well. The best thing: the show only gets better from here.

Had The X-Files been cancelled, this would have made a satisfying conclusion.

"Think he's a Bob Marley fan?" Yo, that is definitely what Mulder would say about the Predator

W Reaction

Yess!! Can't wait to watch this when I get home.

Please keep watching!!!

Great episode! It's S tier for me. I like the back & forth between Mulder and Scully also the fact that regardless of what Mulder believes Scully still stands by him.

A great episode. Episodes like this nail what I love about the show. And there's more to come!

Just read that this episode although a great episode...was actually ratings wise was the lowest viewed episode of the entire series

I love the score in this episode. Mark Snow composed some great music for this show.

I also did not like Miri from TOS season 1 but from this point forward on X-Files it is all getting better....keep pushing forward

If the alien through-line is your thing, all I will say is "Buckle up boys, you're in for a serious and satisfying ride". 90%-95% of the "monster of the week" episodes are crazy good, too. Out of the first 7 seasons, 161 episodes, I would give 80 episodes an "A-" rating or higher. There are only 10 episodes that I would give a low rating. I am really looking forward to sharing some fun and Xciting X-Files viewing with you.

Screw MNF, we have MNXF with Alex & Josh, SO much better.

I have this on a DVD set that in included a behind the scenes feature on the special effects. It showed that the invisible creature was a man wearing a very weird orange body suit. It had no arms. I found it interesting, and some what amusing.

One of my favourite episodes from the first season. And, Josh, stop teasing. You're going to stick with the X-Files, you hear me!? ;) Seriously, guys. You won't regret it. And I'm having a blast rewatching with you both.

One of the highlights of this season! Right after what is considered the worst episode of S1, some say even the entire show. But this one here is great in all departments. Continues the alien plot, keeps enough open for your own imagination, gives a glimpse of what might be and what might come dispite the fact still just being in S1. Happy you two liked it, too. Keep it coming, guys. I really hope we make it past ep13 all the way to the end.

That low-angle fisheye lens accomplished a whole lot in terms of creepiness. I'm impressed. I also love the restraint in the storytelling — they gave us enough details to satisfy without overexplaining and ruining it. On another note, please keep watching this series. If it seems like too much work to give it the Star Trek treatment, then don't. Just watch it and give us a few minutes of commentary and call it a day. Works for me!

I believe sending the military into Wisconsin this way is a violation of the posse comitatus act but I’m pretty sure that this is an example of the ends, justify the means and to hell with the constitution

MUFON is a real UFO research network run by individuals who join it was created in 1969 and predates The X-Files
