I agree with you. It wasn't my favorite season at all, but this finale was pretty good. If only the overall season had a bit of this tempo and seriousness. I liked how they incorporated all those characters here. I think one of the reasons that they didn't show Mulder and Scully as a couple here was, that Scullys reveal at the end wouldn't have been such a shocking twist then. So they only left some hints, like their kiss in "Millennium" or the "All things" episode and all that subtle flirting. Great callback to the pilot episode by the way.

My 2 questions would be: Is there any chance we see you both reacting to the short Lone Gunmen SpinOff series right after season 8? This would really complete the journey. Second question is a classic. What do you expect, or let's say, what are your wishes for season 8?

I always and immediately assumed it's Mulder's baby because 1. They made a point of showing Mulder and Scully being very affectionate and snuggly with each other post "all things" and 2. Scully was happy (nobody would be happy to be inexplicably pregnant).

I don't have any interesting questions, so I'll just share trivia tidbits. -- Since this episode harks back to the pilot, did you know Scully originally had a boyfriend? Yep, some guy named Ethan, who was so pointless that they could cut his scenes out and nothing was lost. So that's what they did. He exists now only as a footnote and a few deleted scenes (in case you care to see -- www.youtube.com/watch?v=SS_Fb0uXkMU). -- Did you know they originally had the idea of making Scully's sister a love interest for Mulder? That was the intention when she was first introduced but they abandoned the idea later on (thank God. I would NOT have liked that AT ALL). -- I just found out that apparently David Duchovny used to date Maggie Wheeler, who played Chandler's girlfriend Janice on Friends, and had a guest spot on The X-Files in season 1 (episode 22 "Born Again"), but that was a few years after they had dated. (I never really watched "Friends" much so I have trouble separating her in my brain from Fran Drescher...) HAPPY NEW YEAR and let's go season 8 Shelley and Emily! :)

Wow, it was really a joy to watch your reaction. :) Season seven, despite having some fantastic episodes, remains one of my least favorites for many reasons, but the finale is spectacular. By "least favorite" I'm only talking about the original series though, not the revival. And a quite unpopular opinion: season eight is actually one of my favorites. Now a couple of points regarding "Requiem"... - Scully's theory about why Mulder is in danger of being taken, is because these particular Oregon abductees all experienced the same brain activity that Mulder had in Biogenesis/The Sixth Extinction. That's also why, according to her, she was rejected by that energy field in the woods. - Billy Miles, his father, and Teresa were all from the pilot episode. The road where the "X" is marked is also from the pilot, where Mulder and Scully experience "missing time". - It is not clear exactly why Krycek was in prison, but I assume, just like you, that it was because of the disk. - It was revealed that Scully is barren in "Memento Mori", and it was then revisited in "Christmas Carol". - It is assumed, based on what CSM has said to Scully in the past, that his illness is the result of the brain surgery. Happy 2024 to both of you, and I hope you enjoy season eight as much as I do, although, tastes and priorities differ from fan to fan. My advice is to avoid spoilers for future episodes and seasons, but I know that this is impossible, especially on YouTube where people post all kinds of spoilers. Take care!

Oh guys, I was so excited for this one. This episode is really a turning point in the series and I will not say anyting else, but you will see. The scene with all the characters...I mean, perfect! There´s a shot of all of them at the scene, it´s an amazing picture! As always, great reactions girls! Love it and let´s go to season 8! Happy New Year!

By the way, it was mentioned in "Memento Mori" season 4, when Mulder figured out, that they harvested her eggs during the abduction, that she is barren. (Makes it even more to wonder about her pregnancy) Mulder kept it a secret, because Scully was diagnosed with cancer. He only told her in the Emily Twoparter (season 5) That egg harvest procedure also caused cancer, cause they exposed her to high radiation during this procedure.

happy new year! this was a really fun watch. my questions are: 1- do you think all things was their first time or no? and if not, when did you think it happened (if it did lol) 2- what do you imagine it's gonna be the vibe for season 8? 3- had you girls read fanfics about them or you don't want to spoil yourself/don't read fic? Not a question but i can't wait for you to finish the nine original season so before you get into the newest stuff you watch and react (pretty please) to the paley panel, it's like actually gold.

I don't know if folks remember this or not. But this was how the show was going end. When Requiem aired, there was no guarantee that an 8th Season was coming, So we almost had the show end on cliffhanger which would have been crazy.
