Loved seeing Doug Jones without makeup. Felt like classic Trek with the race switching
Well, that was awful. As a pure character-building exercise for Janeway it mostly fails, because the character it focuses on isn't even her. Sure, it's nice for Star Trek to sometimes do something different, but when it does it usually ties in to something important. This doesn't. This is the equivalent of a daydream with no bearing on anything.
It's like the writers wished they were making a completely different show. It could have worked if the story it told was original or interesting. The episode was meant to include Q and Guinan which would have improved it immeasurably.
There wasn't the slightest hint of chemistry between Shannon and Henry.
And again, Tom Paris' original character set up continues to be destroyed by making him an obscure history buff whose knowledge now expands to all Earth history, not just cars of the 1950s.
"Let's fly??!!!" That's "Korny" with a "K!"
It was a good ending. Not a great one, but a good one.
Is that the ticket please guy?
Well, just the stub.
TOO SOON!!!!!
I knew he’d show up but not that version!
I have been sooo excited for this for a long time, waiting for the big cameo, after credits that will blow my mind and expecting an outstanding episode with exceptional vfx acting and writing. was it as fucking amazing as me and I'm sure a lot of other people expected????
no not really but the costume was kinda cool I guess
Owen Wilson is in this?
wow
You don’t have to wait for the after credits it just says Loki will return in season 2
Good end to the season that was.
Oh my days! That was a brutal and sad episode! I knew Doris was gonna end up taking the pill and I knew she wouldn't have the talent to join her husband and daughter. But how horrible was her daughter Alma coercing her into taking the pill, knowing what it was likely to do? I think though that next week we're gonna see things go bad for the rest of the Gardner family. If I'm right, I'm not gonna feel too bad for them. I just hope the baby ends up being ok.
I also really enjoyed the storyline with Karen and Mickey. That was sad as Mickey obviously has genuine feeling for Karen but he's so wrapped up in his new found success that he's ignoring the fact that she doesn't want a part of that. And for good reason! Very sad ending to their story on the beach at the end but I saw that coming given Karen's feelings on the pill and what it does.
My favourite episode so far this season.
That was satisfying!!
Brilliant use of every single thing ever created by the MCU, We are The Watchers and We loved it!!!
Don’t forget to watch the small post credit scene!...
A good final episode, but really hard to take the fight with Ultron seriously. He had all the stones but didn't even really use them? He literally has the power to just stop/reverse time. He's an insanely smart AI, yet somehow he doesn't even think to create some sort of timeloop like Strange has in the past? That's literally just one of the stones, he had all of them! Seems really absurd that this team were able to do anything at all to Ultron, especially considering that the Watcher couldn't even beat him.
I wish I could slow it down, I find myself asking, what did she just say. Not understanding the fast paced, everything is so exciting or end of the world pace of this doctor. Wondering what happened to the moon and the sun?
All I wanted for Christmas was for Hawkeye to make it home.
Wow, this was actually a very good Episode.
Good Writing and Aisling Bea (Sarah) is just amazing.
Kind of sad, that Chibnail is only lowering his virtue signaling crap now that he is basically already out the door...
Finally, this episode solidified my understanding of the mythology. It's taken this long but the exposition cram sessions provided by this and the previous episode ("Two Fathers") finally set things straight for me. Not the most entertaining episode, but definitely critical to understanding the mess of details associated with the previous seasons.
Secondary characters in this episode: Kersh, CSM, Agent Spender, Diana, Krycek, Bill Mulder, Lone Gunmen, Syndicate, Cassandra, Marita Covarrubius
haha a lotta dog jokes and puns here; but more importantly, 1999 was just the time when online dating or meeting someone from the internet grew, so it's nice that they incorporated that into the show
This is episode he got back his "I want to believe!" Poster.
"dear diary: today my heart leapt when agent scully suggested spontaneous human combustion"
A bit more background on Mulder's past, so that was good... but the episode overall was a bit boring
Scully: "What else do you want to do or find?"
Mulder: "My sister."
PHRASING!
This must've been the premise for what would become the 2012 movie, Chronicle. I would also assume that the bullet scene was inspired by the popularity of The Matrix earlier that year, 1999.
One of my favorite episodes! I absolutely loved the fact that this probably aired on FOX while COPS was also on the air. I loved the idea that some people might have actually taken it seriously as a COPS episode due to the intro being basically identical to the actual cop show.
I'm a bit on the fence here about the "new" X-Files. But I do like Dogget!
man, Ray Pearce is a really unfortunate name.
Clearly Scully hasn't learned anything. So there is a conspiracy of doctors to hide alien babies. Where do you seek refuge? From the Army, that it's IN from the beginning? That has secret alien planes and hides aliens? Yep good idea, they will for sure help you!
A very X-Files episode! It really digs into the true mythology of the show.
I loved seeing Mulder really standing up for his beliefs!
I'm very intrigued by Deep Throat
How did no one point out that using pheromones to seduce people into sex is rape? Someone who is under the influence of pheromones that make them attracted to someone can't consent, that's like saying a person who's so drunk they can't see can consent.
Honestly, the rest of Season 9 that I have watched thus far has been such a slog to get through that this episode was a breath of fresh air. The use of music and the highly stylistic cinematography were highly enjoyable; I love when a piece of media isn't afraid to play with the medium. It will definitely be going on my list of favorite The X-Files episodes.
