The X-Files: Tempus Fugit (1997)
Season 4, Episode 17
9/10
We've seen it before...
25 November 2011
This is a very good mythological episode of the X-Files and its part of a two parter. Its got everything a good episode of the X-Files has, Mulder trying to solve a mystery and he's sure aliens are involved. Scully denying him at every turn, government trying to cover it all up. The problem is we've seen all this before and I haven't seen the next episode yet but i'm sure its going to end the same way all X-Files episodes do. Nothing is answered and there's a thousand more questions. They can't even build suspense with the aliens anymore because we've already seen aliens all over the show. We've seen dead aliens, people being abducted by aliens, aliens being attacked by other aliens, we've seen aliens do just about everything. We've already seen their ship in past episodes. I mean one of the things about this show is the mystery that it builds around the aliens but this far into it the mysteries pretty much gone just because we've seen so much of the aliens. Still a very good episode and I like the story of Mulder and Scully trying to keep the government agent alive. Acting is great per usual and it does a good build to the next episode.
