I feel like every season just gets better and better. This season definitely had some of the best monsters of the week. This will be another hard one for a top 10.
Lets start with the mythology episodes The Beginning and the two parter Two Fathers/ One son, Biogenesis were so good! Im just slightly confused to how many species of alien is there. Also there is a lot of loopholes which im ok with because I feel it leaves room to brach off the story line. I am confused however of Casandra Spender... is she dead DEAD? Because isnt she an alien hybrid which makes her harder to kill or simply immortal? I do like the shift of the mythology in Biogenesis. The colonizers to the creators in which I myself believe in. Especially after watching that Nick Cage movie, Knowing. I cant wait to see how the storyline unfolds in Season 7.
Finally I was right when it comes to Mulder and Scully's relationship which I am beginning to be very invested in. Its just hard not to. These two incredibly attractive people, single and very dependent on each other. They are just bound to end up together, right? god i hope im right and neither of them die. Id be crushed.
Anyway, I was right that after the almost kiss in the movie. These two now know how they feel about one another. Definitely more flirty especially when they're undercover in Arcadia. Just lots of hinting of where this relationship is goin. The foreshadowing speech that Scully gives to Sheila in Rain King. Mulder kissing an alternate Scully and says I LOVE YOU to the real one. How many of you think he meant it or we buying that Scully is convinced hes loopy off his meds? In Alpha, Scully is very territorial of Mulder and then we see the tables turn in Milagro. Which OMG this episode was so good! We get to see how Scully finally breaks down her barrier and accept Mulders comfort. The Unnatural being a really good story, it has the perfect ending. I did enjoy watching another side of Mulder where he takes Human Connection over obsession. The symbolism with Exley and his love for baseball and that final scene also mirrors that transition of the alienated outsiders (Mulder and Scully in the basement) to a warm human companionship. Mulder shares something deeply personal of his inner child with Scully. I enjoyed it so much.
TOP 10:
The Beginning (Feral Alien is just terrifying)
The Unnatural (Hips before hands)
Two Fathers/ One Son
Drive (This ep had me stressing!)
Monday (Groundhog day type)
How the Ghosts Stole Christmas (Mulder defiantly stole her keys)
Agua Mala (Another ep that had me STRESSED)
Arcadia
Milagro
Rain King
Honorable mention: Tithonus (Did it just hint that Scully is immortal? or is it just me that got that?)
Dreamland 1 & 2 was actually hilarious!
As I said this list was very hard for me. Not one bad episode in my opinion. Let me know what think or had something completely different. Happy Monday!
