Much better than the first two eps of this season, IMHO. Back to the silliness and Scully seemed more her old self one, though I think in some ways Gillian's forgotten just how to play Scully. It's been many years though so I really can't fault her for it. Nice to see her with her hair red again. I know blonde is Gillian's natural color but those first two eps she looked ill. Anyway this ep reminded me a bit of Supernatural (which reminds me, nice little nod to Kim Manners!) and so that makes me appreciate it on two levels.

It is kind of frustrating to see Gillian playing Scully. All these years of people wanting and begging for a revival, she always seemed more optimistic and excited about the idea than David ever did. Now that the episodes are premiering and they're on the talk show circuit, you can definitely tell that David is the one who is pumped - and Gillian doesn't even look like she wants to be there. She's still doing a decent enough job that I don't dislike her yet though. That's good, right?
Hahaha, the ringtone on Mulder's phone. Great episode.
