Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
While the first season of The X-Files introduced us to Scully and Mulder, the second season finds the show confidently hitting its stride. Building on its earlier success, the show evolves, and in these 25 episodes, a glimpse is shown of a longer-running story line (which will continue through subsequent seasons) that is woven into the usual stand-alone episodes of the paranormal. These so-called mythology episodes hint at a global conspiracy involving sinister government agents, UFOs, alien abductions, genetic engineering, the ever-lurking Cigarette Smoking Man, and Fox Mulder's father. Season 2 fleshes out Mulder's family history, including the childhood abduction of his sister Samantha, an event that would shape him for life. Actress Gillian Anderson (Scully) became unexpectedly pregnant during season 2, but series creator Chris Carter managed to dance nimbly around her absence and even integrate it into the show. As in season 1, Mulder and Scully are surrounded by a strong supporting cast, which adds a suspicious new agent named Alex Krycek, an informant named X, and a seemingly indestructible alien bounty hunter.

Among the standout episodes are "The Host," "Duane Barry/Ascension," "Humbug," "Dod Kalm," "Colony/End Game," and "Anasazi." These episodes are a powerful reminder that The X-Files, like no other show on television, can span horror, suspense, mystery, romance, drama, and comedy, sometimes all in the same episode, and always with the production values of a major feature film. --Eugene Wei

5 out of 5 stars X-Files Season 2   October 6, 2008
LuvtheElves (Rustbelt, USA)
It's great to have whole seasons on DVD- no commercials :) Still one of the best TV shows I've ever seen.


4 out of 5 stars Missing Episode   September 28, 2008

I've read here that only Amazon.com sold or still sells the season with the last episode missing, I just want to let people know that I bought this season at Best Buy a couple months ago and the season finale is missing. I was very frustrated. I am going to take it back next week and exchange it. I am going to have them put the new 6th disc in a dvd player to make sure it contains the final episode. Great season, though!


4 out of 5 stars Good Season, No Missing Episodes   September 19, 2008

My review is simple. I just received my copy of this season and "Anasazi" the episode that many claim is missing, is included on Disc 6 and plays without difficulty. For any non-fans out there, I will put in my two cents and say that The X-Files is a good show and as most of the reviews below state, this is a pretty good season. If you're looking for great science-fiction, here it is, just make sure to start with the first season (as if that wasn't obvious anyway).


5 out of 5 stars ARE YOU GUYS STUPID????????   July 28, 2008

I've been hearing a lot of people bitching and moaning, going "OMG TEH SLIM SET DOESN'T HAVE ANASAZI!!!!11!!1!". Well guess what? MY SLIM SET HAS IT!!!!!! Just because it's missing a disc, doesn't mean it's missing Anasazi. I even checked Disc 6 to see if you guys were correct and what's the last episode listed on the menu??? ANASAZI!!!!!! For crying out loud, if you guys even had this slim set, you wouldn't be bitching about it! So shut up unless you guys know what you're talking about! But anyways, this is a great season, one of the better seasons, and definitely one that picks up the pace.

Although Amazon is well-aware that the Second-Season Slim Set is missing a dvd (disc 7 with the season finale "Anasazi"), it continues to be sold. Scroll down and you will see the complaints of the other frustrated customers who have paid full-price for a not-full set. If you complain to Amazon, they will quickly send you a replacement - of the exact same set which is missing a disc.

Don't buy season 2 from Amazon.

Other than that the X-Files is awesome and season 2 is one of the best seasons.
