The X-Files - The Complete Sixth Season (Slim Set)

For all of you X-File fans that wish to enjoy each and every episode without all of the bells and whistles, the "Slim Set" is worth your serious consideration.

Season six is one of the best seasons in the whole nine year run of the X-Files.
The beginning: The X-files are to be reopened, but Agent Fowley and Spender are the ones who are assigned to the job. The episode also features the return of Gibson Praise.
Drive: Mulder and Scully come to the aid of a man who must continue to travel west at incredible speed or else his head will explode.
Triangle: Mulder ends up on a ship that has been missing since WWII when he goes searching for it in the Bremuda Triange.
Dreamland I & II: Mulder switches identities w/ a man named Morris Flecher after witnessing a UFO fly past them.
How the Ghosts stole Christmas: A beautifully written story about the true meaning of Chrismas.
Two fathers/one son: The truth about the fifty year long conspiracy is finally revealed. These are perhaps two of the best mythology episodes since Redux and Redux II.
Monday: Kind of a take off of Ground Hogs Day, but is an excellent episode all the same.
Milagro: A thrilling episode about a writer who's novel comes alive.
The unnatural: One of the best episodes in not just this season, but in the whole nine year run. Very heartwarming and entertaing.
Three of a kind: It's the Lone Gunman. What's there to say?

Season 6 is in my opinion possibly the best of them all, it is definitely hands-down the funniest, and contains the most hints about Mulder and Scully being a couple. I love this season. It is a must-have for all X-Files fans!

I never got the chance to see the X Files when it aired originally. I tuned into it when it first aired in syndication on TNT around the 4th season and didn't think too much of it at first due to the silly stand alone episodes. I began watching it again a few months later and got caught up in it. Subsequently I ended up buying every season and paying top dollar for each. I was rather dismayed when the entire collection dropped dramatically in price a little more than 6 months later. That said, I don't regret having the complete X-Files collection as part of my DVD library. Everything about this series, from concept to elaborate sets and special effects was extraordinary. The conspiracy story line was done well enough to cause even a skeptic to question some things. A number of the paranormal episodes were astounding while some other episodes were absolutely hysterical. Some say it ran 2 seasons too long but the acting and scripts were even better after David Duchovny's departure. Robert Patrick and Annabeth Gish's characters were a welcomed relief from the chronic tears of Gillian Anderson and mobid demeanor of David Duchovny for many fans of the show. The 2-part finale was a bit disappointing and it's difficult to tell if that was the fault of the writing team or David Duchovny's lack of interest in the project. Either way it's a piece of perfectly executed, mega budget, TV history and it shows in every episode.

I purchased the first five seasons of The X Files but was so upset that David Duchovny would be leaving the searies I didn't buy the rest. Having recovered, I find the slim set packaging is sold for less than half the price of the orginal DVD collections. The series is great !
