Scully coma x files3/12/2023 ![]() Everyone is telling him to drop the case, to let Deputy Director Kersh off the hook, but a new lead opens up when an EPA official, ostensibly about to blow the whistle on an additive in drinking water, is found killed in a car wreck. Protection is more important than revelation, which is why his key witness, Mulder, has vanished again, this time to protect little William. Nothing Important Happened Today Nothing Important Happened Today II At the end of the previous season, Agent Doggett seemed poised to root out the corruption in the FBI following the events surrounding the birth of Scully’s baby, but now in the cold light of day, cooler heads are beginning to prevail. 20 episodes of the X Files Season 9 are presented across five discs, along with two bonus discs replete with extra features. But events will spiral to an ultimate conclusion where the truth really will out. But the conspiracies are still out there, as is the truth, and uncovering them will be harder than ever. ![]() That doesn’t last for long, as he gets a new partner full time in the form of Agent Monica Reyes. That leaves Doggett all alone in the X Files, the last man you’d ever expect to head up a department investigating the unexplained and unexplainable. Add to that Scully has transferred to Quantico as an instructor to spend more time with William. This leaves Doggett without a key witness in his investigation into corruption in the FBI. When little baby William is potentially the focus of the alien conspiracy, then keeping him safe is paramount, which is why at the start of season 9, Mulder has dropped out of sight. Mulder didn’t stick around long to play happy families. ![]() That was not to be, and after all this time, it’ll be interesting to see just why. Season 9 would be Gillian Anderson’s final season if the new central pair of Doggett and Reyes had bedded in, and the networks decided to take the X Files into Season 10 and beyond. Quite frankly, when it came to season 8, I preferred the stand-alone episodes with Doggett and Scully, and when Mulder returned the show’s quality began to dip again. Could the X Files work without Mulder and Scully and the original mythology? The combination of the three really did falter in season 7, while season 8, ostensibly David Duchovny’s final season as Mulder, had enough without him to give some idea of how good the show could be again. Season 9 really was the last chance for the X Files, but they had everything in place to make it work, new main characters, and new conspiracies, and a back to basics vibe that toned down on the comedy. Unfortunately, I decided with Season 6 that I would see the X Files through, and give it the belated reviewer going over that I ought to have done way back when I watched the first five seasons. Introduction There comes a point where watching a show stops being fun, and starts being a chore, and that’s when you should find something else to watch.
