This week we are doing something a little different and taking a look back at Season 8 and The Lone Gunmen as a whole! We argue about whether or not sloughing off all your skin would be relaxing or not, add Chris Owens to the Famous Chris ranking (naturally), wonder if we need to do a T2 bonus episode, discuss the pros and cons of Mulder and Scully as parents, and have a very controversial ranking of “Patience”. We rank the episodes, recommend a few The Lone Gunmen episodes, answer emails and...
This week we are joining an alien cult to witness the birth of Scully’s baby while we discuss “Existence”! We’re talking aliens parachuting out of a ship in race cars like in The Fast and the Furious, Skinner getting karate chopped in the head in the goofiest way possible, whether or not we’re still on the Crane Train, how Doggett’s Topgolf crew has been defecting all year, how this is Reyes’ fourth rodeo, and the ridiculous amount of Baby Jesus references. We discuss Mulder warning Doggett a...
This week we are wrapping up The Lone Gunmen while we discuss “The Cap’n Toby Show” and “All About Yves”! We’re talking your classic hot dog mascot costume mixup, how grim it is that Jimmy is now living in their creepy warehouse with them, sexy spy fights, how we simply must stop making fun of Langly’s hair, and how we are now massive fans of the half-man half-crab Clarence the Crab. We have a hot debate on whether Morris Fletcher is fun to hate or just hateable, get sad that our Kimmy banish...
This week we are attending a species reveal party for Scully’s baby while we discuss “Essence”! We’re talking Margaret and Scully getting into mortal combat, karate chop decapitation, fake “friends” and “family” at this baby shower, Doggett conducting Doggett Activities (watching NASCAR and cleaning his gun), the strengthening evidence of Mulder’s cat energy, and wonder who can look more sad: Mulder or Doggett? The answer may surprise you. We cheer on the awkward evidence guy, wonder whether ...
This week we are infiltrating a tango competition and tracking down blackmailing brothers while we discuss The Lone Gunmen episodes “Tango de los Pistoleros” and “The Lying Game”! We’re talking baby boy Schnauz, Frohike’s Miami trauma, how the only excitement these boys get is playing catch with toilet paper, how Ella summoned Kimmy back into existence, the Frojack, and secret tango pasts. We welcome back Skinner: the real star of the show, note that Byers has a type (mysterious blonde women ...
This week we are hanging out with annoying coworkers in dank tunnels while we discuss “Alone”! We’re talking how Doggett was ruined by the X-Files in only a few short months, how regifting really loses its charm after the fourth or seventh time, whether there’s a radon leak in the basement office, that Leyla easily could have been another Krycek, how Doggett is always getting himself into Looney Tunes situations, and how we’re mostly excited that we are continuing the travel expenses storylin...
This week we are for some reason breaking into maximum-security prison and hunting down grizzly bear poachers while we discuss The Lone Gunmen episodes “Maximum Byers” and “Diagnosis: Jimmy”! We’re talking Jimmy being put on death row for impersonating Elvis, how we didn’t know Byers was capable of bullying anyone, our favorite character Stronk, Steve Martin’s possible culpability in this evil scheme, and that Jimmy would definitely be a wife guy, and it’s strange that he hasn’t been snatched...
This week we are jumping off an oil rig in slow-motion while we discuss “Vienen”! We’re talking the show’s triumphant return to Boat X-Files, Bo Crowder’s surprise appearance, whether or not the Zodiac Killers is an open X-File, how much Mulder and Doggett hate each other, Skinner not being able to resist eating some delicious caramels off Kersh’s desk, Mulder’s undeniable cat energy, and whether Scully is busy doing a bunch of pranks when she’s teaching at Quantico. We wonder why nobody seem...
This week we are entering a low-resolution virtual reality and helping chimpanzees learn Shakespeare while we discuss The Lone Gunmen episodes “Madam, I’m Adam” and “Planet of the Frohikes”! We’re talking the running bit of The Lone Gunmen newspaper being found in the trash, whether or not Jimmy would be jealous of Mulder’s existence, Frohike getting into a beef with a child, finding goo in EVERY crevice, Yves being TLG’s emergency contact, that evil scientists can be wives too, and get reall...
This week we are taking our faces off to reveal a tinier fiery face while we discuss “Empedocles”! We’re talking Reyes’ girl potential, comfy Scully, how dangerous it is to put two believers on one case, Jeb!, how much we enjoy how much Doggett and Mulder hate each other, and think it’s suspicious that Skinner didn’t show up to Scully’s hospital room. We do a lot of bad Batman voices (sorry in advance), wonder whether Mulder might actually be a ghost, try to stop Doggett from looming over Scu...
This week we are seeking out water-powered cars and being ill-equipped to take care of babies while we discuss The Lone Gunmen episodes “Like Water for Octane” and “Three Men and a Smoking Diaper”! We’re talking how Byers isn’t capable of carrying heavy boxes, question why Jimmy is doing all of their grunt work, add another Robe Wife to the collection, point out Langly’s cow trauma, and admire TLG’s cute little catsuits. We watch Langly go full cartoon mouth, realize that Byers was Suit Guy, ...
This week we are trying our best to get reinstated to our jobs while we discuss “Three Words”! We’re talking our triumphant return to the Mulder-only plot summaries, how much we’ve come to love Kersh and his evil ways, how Scully will still be working cases while she’s in labor, how much Doggett misses his pull tab case, and how much Mulder hates Doggett right off the bat. We laugh at Knowle Rohrer and the most suspicious hoodie of all time, how Scully is BESIDE HERSELF apparently, whether Sk...
This week we are adding another member to the crew and breaking into old women’s houses while we discuss The Lone Gunmen episodes “Bond, Jimmy Bond” and “Eine Kleine Frohike”! We’re talking the ongoing motif of humiliating poor Tom Braidwood, whether or not Yves has a fake British accent, how much we love the evil henchman Mr. Luscious Lips and his signature move of kissing each bullet he shoots, how Langly has no idea how to clean anything, and say hello to Jimmy Bond. We are on the hunt for...
This week we are exhuming dead bodies and redefining the spa experience by sloughing off our entire bodies while we discuss “Deadalive”! We’re talking the dangers of Scully’s membrane rupturing from scary news, how excited we are about the return of the nanobots, how Doggett embodies the “if shit sux hit da bricks” meme, wonder why exactly they’re burying Mulder in North Carolina, and do some star chart and org chart analysis to figure out what Kersh’s deal is. We get embarrassed by Skinner p...
This week we are spending some time with the boys while we discuss The Lone Gunmen “Pilot”! We’re talking how we are living the darkest future of this show, how strange it is that The Lone Gunmen still don’t seem to care about Mulder’s death, how right it is that Frohike still has a VW van from his hippie days, how apparently the entire crew hates poor Tom Braidwood now, how Byers has perma-baby face, and of course, the long-awaited “closely averting 9/11” plotline. We add Papa Byers to the B...
This week we are trying to recover Mulder from a Nike Cult while we discuss “This Is Not Happening”! We’re talking how Theresa Hosey is the original Grunge Teen, how it’s dangerous to let Doggett emote on a plane, that Skinner may not be helpful in this investigation but he does have a great chest to cry into, how Scully and Skinner are like under-socialized dogs meeting a new dog at the park, and celebrate that Annabeth Gish has finally arrived! We worry that Doggett is getting outnumbered b...
This week we are hoping a government conspiracy hasn’t gotten involved in Scully’s pregnancy again while we discuss “Per Manum”! We’re talking how we can no longer ignore the fact that Scully is pregnant no matter how hard we try, wonder where Mulder kept Scully’s ova this entire time (hopefully not his freezer next to the ice cream), note that Scully and Doggett’s icy-blue eyes are too scary when combined, how Scully would love to reproduce asexually if she could, and how Doggett needs a big...
This week we are tracking an infectious disease through the Boston subway system while we discuss “Medusa”! We’re talking the very-real Jason Staham cameo, how Dr. Kelso from Scrubs will keep these trains running come hell or high water, wonder if it’s worth it to get infected by flesh-eating creatures if it means you can catch your train home on time, how Doggett is definitely a lover of the New York subway and as a result hates the fair city of Boston, and laugh at a Hazmat team running awa...
This week we are looking into troubling secrets and barfing creatures while we discuss “The Gift”! We’re talking whether or not Scully has any hobbies, how there’s no way Skinner reads any of their case reports, some Geico Caveman kissing ASMR, and how Mulder is screaming at witnesses. He’s back, baby! We’re happy to see Mulder, but we’re troubled by his actions, and isn’t that just like coming home? We discover that Skinner troublingly doesn’t know Mulder at all, how much Mulder hates wife-e...
This week we are avoiding squeaky carts in public bathrooms while we discuss “Badlaa”! We’re talking Doggett’s ever-deepening New Yahk accent, how Scully is always late to the scene because she has to exchange insurance information with all the cars she’s hit, sloppy vampires, how Scully is terrified at being the believer, that Skinner would make a great test proctor, and how it only took us ten episodes to create an absolutely unrecognizable version of Doggett in our minds. Gemini King Skinn...
