The X-Files: Season Four product reviews

Season Four sets off with the Bounty Hunter on the move again with Mulder trying to find a way to save his 'sister'. About eight episodes in the series concentrate on the 'Alien Mythology' that is running through the series and the rest go by their "monster of the week" episodes, so you don't have to know what the heck Mulder is going on about. Whilst thinking about Mulder, I have to say that a fun episode was "Small Potatoes", particularly when the perp makes a run for it and Mulder rolls his eyes... Here we go again... The "Leonard Betts" episode, whilst a stand alone episode is rather inegral to the series due to a revelation for Scully.

The acting in this series has only been getting better and whilst there are still moments where Mulder really, and I mean really, gets on my nerves, the flow between Mulder and Scully has found its sure footing and there are some great moments with the two of them. The settings are well done, one episoe puports to be the most expensive set desigined for the series. I do like that the entire series didn't focus solely on aliens but I would have been happier with a few more monster of the week stories. The season finale cliffhanger is crap, but given that most of the season was pretty good I shall forgive it its bad script.
