Hello All!   

Welcoming in a new show to the roster, The X Files! This is a mighty franchise to delve into and a little daunting but I'm so excited to see this show with all of you. Episode 2 felt like a continuation of the pilot to me. Scully is a none believer and Mulder is welcoming the unknown and enjoying exploring it - trying to prove what he believes to be true. This episode confirms what's out there but mainly to emphasise that the government do NOT want the general public to know about their discoveries. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE folks...Please let me know if you think I should do a watch list of key episodes while watching the more 'unpopular' filler eps on my own time OR if I should upload every ep here on patreon and combine multiple episodes together over on youtube. I will post a poll shortly and would love you input.

Much love & many thanks

Having trouble watching this video? Please follow the below steps:

- Please make sure you are signed into your Google Account to watch the google drive links. The links are temperamental if you are not signed in.

- If for whatever reason the links still aren't working for you, please try an alternative browser. For example, if you are using Microsoft edge please try google chrome. Again though, you must be signed into your google account.

- The above should solve your issues, in the odd case it doesn't, I can only put it down to it being a fresh upload and too many people are accessing the link...on this occasion I typically leave a temporary link at the bottom of the description. This lasts for 4 weeks after my initial posting. The exceeded views does reset so please be patient & try again on another day.

One of the things I've always loved about Mulder is his determination to find tangible evidence of these events. He is firmly in the category of "believer" but he wants to prove it. I feel that even if he were to be sat down and given a complete and honest answer to every question he has, he would not be satisfied until he could prove it to others.

Thadman

I always loved and wanted his poster "I WANT TO BELIEVE."😁

Love me some X-Files, this is going to be a long haul with 218 episodes and 2 movies. Can not wait for episode 3 as it is one of my favourite, and yes I WANT TO BELIEVE.

Gabriela Popescu

I think this show is perfect for you - the dynamic between Mulder and Scully is the heart of the show IMO. I’m a child of the 90s too and this always gives me the fuzzy feels. Excited you’re watching it! Loved all your reactions to my fave shows!

Brian Dworak

I would hope for Patreon that you react to every episode in full. Yes, there are a lot of episodes, but Supernatural had 110 more. Just like any show there will be filler episodes, but they're all part of the overarching story. Fingers crossed.

Wreath

Very good reaction!

Considering there are only 5-10 main plot episodes depending on the season, I'd definitely recommend watching every episode. I don't think there are really any Filler episodes with the show because the cases are the show. There are some episodes I don't care for on rewatch but they are few and far between. Each case is a fun mini-movie even if it's not moving the needle on the overall plot forward. The X-Files is more of an anthology series that happens to have it's own story sometimes. This is my favorite tv series and I can't wait to watch along with you.

Robert

Yes most of the episodes will be stand alone, in that you won't need to have seen the show before to enjoy them; not necessarily fillers though. Yo will fall in love with the show, though. There's a reason that Mulder and Scully are almost as famous a team as Batman and Robin. Also you'll love the introduction of the cigarette smoking man(Yes that's how he's referred to, even in the script.) and The Lone Gunman, a group that you will have to see to believe.

DakaraJayne

Omn1! So great to see you. As a reactor veteran, what would you suggest for YouTube? Merging eps together if they seem a little 'empty' or keeping all separate amd if they're shorter videos then they're shorter videos

Thadman

You were not really that off when you called those guys "Men in Black." They weren't invented for the movie (nor the comic it was based on). They've been part of UFO lore for decades and decades. People weren't sure if they were human or alien, but they'd be seen at UFO sites and evidence of it would gone within a day, so it was speculated that they were there to cover things up and they looked like non-descript government agents who rarely spoke.

Thadman

This episode would not be considered filler. It's a slower episode, but it moves the main story of the series forward. Like you said, it's a continuation. When people talk about filler, I think they're talking about the one-offs. Also, one-offs (monster of the week) are some of the best episodes of the series.

Omn1Media

I think combining them might do better overall engagement wise, I just don't do it myself that often because it feels less daunting when I spread them out while editing! haha

An interesting thing about the theme. When they were editing for the series, one of the recording sound engineers accidentally goofed in his recording and there's like a boom (sort of) at the beginning and they liked the effect so much they decided to leave it in. Also, the wife you see at the beginning I believe was the psychiatrist who interviewed Olivia Dunham (twice, lol) in Fringe.

I asked ChatGTP: ""using the synopsis of "X Files" episodes, please make a list of the 8 most relevant episodes on each season, in regards to the main arc of the whole TV show for someone that wants to concentrate on watching those episodes. You can also classify them with percentages as to how relevant is each episode to the overall arc of them show" (And for some reason it excluded seasons 10 and 11) ChatGPT said: Got it — you want a "Mythology Path" guide through The X-Files: the most important arc-driven episodes (a.k.a. “mytharc” episodes), filtered season by season, so that someone who just wants to follow the core arc can do so without the monster-of-the-week detours. The showrunners (Carter, Spotnitz, Gilligan) often distinguished between “mytharc” and “standalone” — but not every mytharc episode is equally essential. Below I’ll list up to 8 per season, ranked with a relevance percentage (100% = indispensable, 60–70% = worth it but skippable if rushed). 📺 The X-Files Mytharc Essentials Season 1 S01E01 – (90%) S01E02 – (80%) S01E04 – (65%) S01E10 – (85%) S01E17 – (95%) S01E24 – (100%) Season 2 S02E01 – (80%) S02E05 – (95%) S02E06 – (100%) S02E08 – (100%) S02E16 – (90%) S02E17 – (95%) S02E25 – (100%) Season 3 S03E01 – (95%) S03E02 – (100%) S03E09 – (95%) S03E10 – (95%) S03E16 – (90%) S03E15 – (90%) S03E24 – (95%) Season 4 S04E01 – (95%) S04E09 – (100%) S04E10 – (95%) S04E14 – (90%) S04E17 – (85%) S04E18 – (85%) S04E21 – (70%) S04E24 – (100%) Season 5 S05E01 – (95%) S05E02 – (100%) S05E13 – (95%) S05E14 – (100%) S05E20 – (95%) Season 6 S06E01 – (90%) S06E10 – (70%) S06E11 – (100%) S06E12 – (100%) S06E22 – (95%) Season 7 S07E01 – (95%) S07E02 – (100%) S07E10 – (70%) S07E11 – (100%) S07E22 – (95%) Season 8 S08E01 – (90%) S08E02 – (90%) S08E13 – (85%) S08E14 – (100%) S08E15 – (95%) S08E16 – (85%) S08E20 – (95%) S08E21 – (100%) Season 9 S09E01 & S09E02 – (85%) S09E06 – (70%) S09E10 – (85%) S09E16 – (90%) ✅ Total streamlined path: ~65 episodes (vs 218 total). ✅ Cuts out most monster-of-the-week while preserving the full conspiracy arc.

Please delete this comment. Posting blatant plot spoilers isn't a good idea.

Let's gooo! I love this damn show so much. Can't wait for you to fall in love with Mulder and Scully. Thank you for picking it up Dak! Also, that comment about Mrs. Budahas looking like Michael Sheen absolutely sent me. 🤣

PongPong31

Thanks for that man! I'm sure we're all gonna love sharing this journey with Dak. Cheers!

For me, watch and post everything on Patreon.

I am SO behind on things I'm subscribed to due to moving to a new place to live. I can't wait to finish Fringe and dive right in with you to the show that I was obsessed with for most of the nineties.

DakaraJayne

Great to see you back and I hope you enjoy the binge 😀

Seasons 1-6 are generally considered the best, with seasons 2-4 being absolute peak. So I would recommend filming throughout this period—though season 1 can be a bit ropey as the show finds its feet The monster-of-the-week episodes are generally my favourite, particularly when they lean into the comedy
