He'll also direct and co-write (but not appear in) an episode to premiere in late April. The final five eps all deal with the mythology thread." I'm looking forward to it. I'm hoping that the final round of episodes can wash the taste out of my mouth from this season. I know Carter & Co have it in them...

  1. Should have ended sooner... by NanoGator · · Score: 4, Informative

    X-Files was dragged along a little too long. I think the whole 'alien conspiracy' thing went on for too long, and really didn't tie up anything. It's like the show was grasping so hard to keep that little secret, it was unwilling to give it up for fear of prematurely ending the show.

    They really would have been better off ending it after the movie. Or maybe even ending it with a movie, I don't know.

    I would have been hyped about seeing it's finale in Season 5, but today it's like "uhh... people are excited about it?"

    I'm not trying to bash X-Files, I like the show. But now I understand why some series are ended with the explanation of 'we want to stop while it is still exciting.", kind of like they did with Deep Space Nine.
