They meet someone who&#8217;s the opposite of a werewolf &#8212; he was a creature, a man bit him, and now he sometimes turns into a man. They track a creature who protects homeless people &#8212; and can tear a person apart with its bare hands. They try outside-the-box ideas to talk to a brain-dead terrorist to find out where his group is striking next.<\/p>\n<p>The previous season of the show was 14 years ago and the last movie was 8 years ago.<\/p>\n<p>I was very excited about this when it was announced. When the first episode aired, I was a bit disappointed. It was OK &#8212; if it had been the first of 26 it would have been fine. But there are only 6 episodes so you don&#8217;t have time to waste on anything that isn&#8217;t brilliant.<\/p>\n<p>There are 2 things I would have done differently. I would have kept Mulder and Scully as a couple &#8212; it took them so long to get there and they should have stayed that way. I wouldn&#8217;t have brought the Cigarette Smoking Man back from the dead &#8212; too many people come back from the dead in science fiction, and this was unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p>It seems like they didn&#8217;t have a big plan to bring <strong>The X-Files<\/strong> back &#8212; it was just a random idea. For best results, don&#8217;t think of these 6 episodes as a season &#8212; think of them as a teaser for more episodes to come.<\/p>\n<p>One more warning: it ends on a cliffhanger.<\/p>\n<p>It didn&#8217;t quite live up to my high expectations, but I enjoyed most of each episode &#8212; if and when it returns, I&#8217;ll be watching.<\/p>\n<p>Stars Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{4\/5} &#8220;I believe that you will find all of your answers&#8230; and I will be there when you do.&#8221; The X-Files season 10, aired in 2016 Skinner asks Mulder and Scully to return to the FBI and the X-Files.
