Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
While the first season of The X-Files introduced us to Scully and Mulder, the second season finds the show confidently hitting its stride. Building on its earlier success, the show evolves, and in these 25 episodes, a glimpse is shown of a longer-running story line (which will continue through subsequent seasons) that is woven into the usual stand-alone episodes of the paranormal. These so-called mythology episodes hint at a global conspiracy involving sinister government agents, UFOs, alien abductions, genetic engineering, the ever-lurking Cigarette Smoking Man, and Fox Mulder's father. Season 2 fleshes out Mulder's family history, including the childhood abduction of his sister Samantha, an event that would shape him for life. Actress Gillian Anderson (Scully) became unexpectedly pregnant during season 2, but series creator Chris Carter managed to dance nimbly around her absence and even integrate it into the show. As in season 1, Mulder and Scully are surrounded by a strong supporting cast, which adds a suspicious new agent named Alex Krycek, an informant named X, and a seemingly indestructible alien bounty hunter.
Among the standout episodes are "The Host," "Duane Barry/Ascension," "Humbug," "Dod Kalm," "Colony/End Game," and "Anasazi." These episodes are a powerful reminder that The X-Files, like no other show on television, can span horror, suspense, mystery, romance, drama, and comedy, sometimes all in the same episode, and always with the production values of a major feature film. --Eugene Wei

Although Amazon is well-aware that the Second-Season Slim Set is missing a dvd (disc 7 with the season finale "Anasazi"), it continues to be sold. Scroll down and you will see the complaints of the other frustrated customers who have paid full-price for a not-full set. If you complain to Amazon, they will quickly send you a replacement - of the exact same set which is missing a disc.
Don't buy season 2 from Amazon.
Other than that the X-Files is awesome and season 2 is ... Read More

I can't believe that this set of discs is missing the last episode of season 2 which continues into the first 2 episodes of season 3. Now I have to save my video tape of the episode. How could they not have corrected this?

In the preceding (first) season of the X-Files, the show was meant to be a scary show. Based off of the old "Kolchak: Night Stalker" television show, the X-Files explored paranormal F.B.I. cases dealing with all sorts of spooky phenomena. The core of the show, however, was Agent Fox Mulder's pursuit of UFO's (as he believed aliens abducted his sister when he was young) and his pairing with the skeptical Agent Dana Scully. Yet, during that first season, there was little to no continuity within the ... Read More

I was very happy with this product, but I also realized that episode 25 was missing. I didn't realize this until I got to the end of disk 6.

Well, this is a MUST for every person who is interested in understanding the X-Files. Ok, so in season 1 Mulder met Scully, but is not until this season that everything started to get complicated (in an alien-UFO-government-conspriracy) kind of way. Highly recommended -even if more than a decade has passed (and the effects aren't that great)-
This show was transcendental in many ways and that's why it must be watched.
