I’m looking forward to it, but I’m not super-excited. I just hope all the loose ends get tied up and Mulder & Scully finally get to live happily ever after.

Me too. I remember watching the last few season as they aired(We had just gotten a fox station for the first time in my area)but to be honest I have no memory of how the series ended, I mean at all so I am expecting to be lost.

Is that strange, the fact that I can so clearly remember watching the series final but I can’t remember one thing that happened in it?

Still I wouldn’t expect all the question to be answered since Carter has said he is ready to make more of these if Fox asks, so they can’t close the book on everything with these six episode. Also Fox did cut the original eight episode order down to six, so that may play a role too.

Despite all this I don’t have cable so this is the TV event I am most looking forward to this year.

Oh and with some christmas money I got the X Files season one on Blu ray and if you can put up with the fact that it was cropped to 16x9(and that is a big if)everything else about this set, from the picture, to the sound, to the fact that there is finally a play all option is a huge improvement over the DvD sets. Too bad they didn’t keep the original aspect ratio. Still for $20, they are a good back up set and given that the X-Files is one of those shows that always looked more like a film then most real films the 16x9 crop doesn’t look as bad or out of place as it could.

I am working my way back through the series now and am really looking forward to this mini series and hope it doesn’t end on a cliffhanger.
