What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

In those innocent days, I didn't even know episodes had titles.

Me neither.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The one that drives me mad is Home. Which, I'm pretty sure is not called Family.

Or Family, which is probably called Home.

It confuses.

Everybody loves Morgan and Wong... or should, I'd say.

But look at CC's list of episodes, I liked most of them a lot. Even counting only the ones he wrote alone. So he did pretty well for me.

Really, I like to pretend the show ends with season eight. I hate all the stupid retconning and overall "nobody cares anymore" lameness of S9. S8 had some of that, but also had a great point of closure at the end for me, so I'll take it anyway.

The incestuous cannibals one? The one that won the Halloween FX marathon that one time? It didn't do much for me.

Totally. And Final Destination was actually pretty cool.

But look at CC's list of episodes, I liked most of them a lot.

Hey, he wrote "Syzygy." I love that one.

No, I mean the name. I can never keep track of what it's called.

It also grossed me out, but that's not what I meant.

Nah, CC was "truth? what truth? you're expecting a truth just because I said it was out there? huh."

I can't get past that. Vampires that can be choked or went looking for souls or too many potentials can never trump that.

Up with the sun

I should start renting them, I guess, I keep forgetting I can do that.

I don't exactly forget, but I'm never in a "wanting to see the X-Files" mood and a "renting TV on DVD" mood at the same time.

Plus, I never really understood or liked the mythology arc, so there are a tremendous number of episodes I have no desire to ever see again. Agree that Je Souhaite was pretty good for a genie story, and my favorite episode of the series was Jose Chung's.

It was Home, ita, but I get the confusion (plus - ME bleedover, though both of those came later). The Johnny Mathis murder scene was hella disturbing.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I think CC did some good individual episodes. However, I think he really screwed up when decided to act like there was a reason behind it all when there really wasn't and he just kept throwing twists in to keep everyone guessing. I think I finally figured this out around season 6 but I kept with it to the bitter end for reasons I don't quite understand. There was some good stand alone episodes in the last 3 seasons, but the arcs were absolute drek.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I was never an XFiles fan. People were raving about it, but when I finally got around to seeing it, it was the "gross" season, so I wasn't really interested. I saw a few great eps, though, like the one about the guy who knew how everyone was going to die, or my favorite, the one with the crazy suburban homeowner's association (crazy and homeowner's association being a bit redundant)
