Product Description:
Casting an irreverent eye over the series, including seasons four and five which were not covered before, this book looks into such weighty matters as: Weird-Looking Actors, Ooze, Trenchcoat Use, and the tendency for characters not to make it through the pre-titles sequence. It presents a complete episode guide, a special feature on the movie, a survey of the media impact of the program, and features on the show's nuts and bolts.

I think this book is very cool - I bought the first edition, and then bought this "expanded" version which includes everything up to the end of season 5, plus the movie. I'm not holding my breath for the authors to come out with an "even more expanded" version - they indicate on the last page of this edition that this is their last book, although they did say that in the first edition too!

This is the only X-Files guide that I own. Consequently, I don't get the show at all after the movie because this is where the book ENDS. I am DYING for a new version! It's still immensly helpful and wildly enjoyable to read.

OK, if there was ever a case of don't judge a book by it's cover, this was it! I bought this book over 5 years ago and everytime I pick it up it's still as fresh and entertaining as the day I discovered it. Filled with EVERYTHING you could ever want or need to know about the X-Files (or TV in general!), it's quite simply THE greatest companion of all time to any TV show or movie ever written and certainly the most worthwhile £5.99 I've ever spent!

As many of the previous reviewers stated, this book is the *perfect* companion to any X-Files fan. It makes me chuckle out loud each time I reread it, often with one eye tuned to the FX rerun of choice. I reference it constantly. And so, all I ask is, PLEASE do an updated edition! Four seasons short now, and there are a LOT of questions they could help answer...and it ought to be messieurs Cornell, Day, and Topping again, for their wit and insight are what made the book.

This is undoubtedly the best work on the X Files I have read. It has an infectious analytical structure and is immensely readable. I can understand how many fans can be put off by the highly personal viewpoints of the authors, but true fans should appreciate its subjective nature. I disagreed with many of their verdicts, but that isn't the point. The X Files is an entirely human series, not exempt from mistakes or weaknesses. The authors highlight its fallible nature, causing the reader to become ... Read More
