Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: By its third season, The X-Files had grown from a cult hit to a global phenomenon, becoming the most popular show in many countries outside the U.S. Armed with the knowledge that the show was here to stay, series creator Chris Carter expanded its mythology, and the 24 episodes in this boxed set represent arguably the strongest of all the X-Files seasons. As usual, stand-alone episodes explored the paranormal and sometimes terrifying possibilities in mythology, pop culture, and religion. Darin Morgan helps the show to mature by expanding its use of humor, directing classic episodes such as "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose" (featuring a fabulous performance from Peter Boyle) and "Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space.'" Meanwhile, two-part episodes continue to delve into the X-Files own mythology, introducing the alien black oil, the implant in Scully's neck, the mysterious Agent X, and the shape-shifting Jeremiah Smith. But following the complex mythology is not crucial to enjoying the show. The strength of the X-Files lies not in resolution but in feeding the paranoia of its rabid audience by revealing conspiracies that linger in the mind as unanswered questions. Series creator Carter realized wisely that fans did not look to the X-Files to explain the unexplained, but to question that which they thought they understood. The third season was effective because it hinted that while the truth was out there, it was more complex, sinister, and amazing than even Mulder had imagined.
Commentaries and deleted scenes are available for some of the 24 episodes, and the last disc in the set contains numerous TV spots and interviews with the creators about the filming of the third season. --Eugene Wei

I must say that the first season gets off to a bit of a slow start. I have never gone back and watched a series and failed to see kinks needing to be worked out in the actors portrayal of the characters, i.e. Spock's goofy (at times) acting in the pilot episode of Star Trek. What I have noticed as I have revisited the series is that the clumsiness of Duchnovy is just about done after the first episode and completely worked out a few episodes after that. I have noticed that with Gillian Anderson (I ... Read More

The last 3 episodes to this show is sure to keep you interested, which only gets better when you get to the next disc for some blindsided tales....

If you are a fan of Fringe, you will love X-Files. Even if you've seen the show, watch it again! It's soooo good. The slim case for the season is very convenient. The only issue is a lack of special features, but nobody thought about special features when this was filmed so it's forgivable haha. This is a must-have.
