The X-Files - Season 8

First aired Nov 5, 2000Season 8

After Mulder’s disappearance, Scully returns to FBI headquarters to find Special Agent John Doggett heading up a FBI manhunt for her partner. Knowing that type of search will prove futile, Scully and Skinner turn to the Lone Gunmen in hopes of uncovering information about additional UFO activity around the time of Mulder’s disappearance. Although such information leads them to Gibson Praise, the man with Gibson, a man who appears to be Mulder, is in fact an alien bounty hunter. Finally realizing that Mulder will not be found so easily, Agent Doggett is officially assigned to the X-Files. Now, after all she has been through with Mulder, it is Scully who is “the believer” and who must find a way to work with “the skeptic,” John Doggett.

I can't believe I'm the only idiot writing an X-Files review here. Anyway, I still don't understand Piper Maru, it was a good episode but not really worth the praise it gets, and let's be honest, the Monster of the Week episodes were always better than the Mytharc ones... ... mostly better. There was were some pretty darn good mythology episodes, and there were ones like Piper Maru that were OK but not great. It was probably the ultimate television drama and an influence to everyone that wanted to achieve greatness on the small screen. It really showed what you could do with a one hour time slot and we were all blessed to have this done, not only because it was done so well, acted so well, and written in a way that invested the audience, but because it pathed the way for people that wanted to achieve that level of greatness. Television got better because of the X-Files, movies got better... and then politics came and it all sucks now, but for a little while, the X-Files raised the bar for everything.

Newly appointed Deputy Director Kersh organizes a manhunt for Mulder and assigns Agent John Doggett to head the team. Scully and Skinner go along with the investigation but are warned by Kersh that they will be fired if anything is said about aliens. Scully, along with the Lone Gunmen, surmise that the Bounty Hunter is trying to erase all evidence of abductions, and they realize that he may be going after Gibson Praise, who is now living at a school in Arizona. Agent Doggett comes to the same conclusion and his team race Scully and Skinner to the school where they find Mulder trying to kidnap Gibson.
