The series finale features Mulder chasing William, while other baddies chase Mulder. Then Scully starts chasing William. Later, the Cigarette-Smoking Man joins in the chase. There's lots of chasing and for me, lots of eye rolling, squirming on my couch, and watching the progress bar on my TV wondering why after 11 seasons, I'm still not sure what the Hell is going on.
The global contagion story line seemed to have been entirely forgotten about, a massive story hole if there ever was one. A lot of secondary characters get knocked off in this, and I suppose that's for shock value. Somehow, Scully manages to easily brush off that William ever existed because she's pregnant with Mulder's baby.
This is really bad. It wraps up the mythology half of the series appropriately because it was always a mess, but it pays a total disservice to the fun, anthology, "monster-of-the-week" episodes that made the series great.
Secondary characters in this episode: CSM, Tad O'Malley, Kersh, Reyes, William
