X-Files will always be one of my all times favorites, even if it did lose itself in a really bad way toward the end (I felt the last few seasons were beyond unwatchable at times). I'd really like to see another movie made. I Want to Believe was extremely disappointing when it came out, I think I was expecting something bit more big budget and significant. Watching it again years later, it felt like I was watching a really good episode of the earlier seasons of the show. I wouldn't mind having that to look forward to every few years. Maybe a made for TV movies would be a safer route for something like this?

Just finished The Venture Brothers last week. Good stuff, it is really dense too, not something I've come to expect from adult oriented cartoons. Had a good friend who constantly tried to get me into it right after it first started, but I had zero interest. For some reason I finally gave it a shot, and I'm glad I did.

Have two episodes left of The Walking Dead. Season three started off a lot better than season two was, but I feel like it has slumped into meandering and going nowhere fast. We aren't working on character growth, and we aren't working on pushing the story forward. Really disappointing. Season one was fantastic, I think the six episode length was perfect. It was short but it felt like stuff happened during the season one arch. The storyline of season two could have easily fit into six episodes and benefited from it. And so far it seems like the same case for season three. More isn't always better, I'm all for longer seasons, but not if it means spending hours watching the dramatic equivalent of watching grass grow.
