Comments: The third season of The X-Files is definitely the best up to this point. The mysteries are better, there's more episodes pertaining to the government and other mythologies central to the show, and Mulder and Scully show more chemistry together (lots of touching and loving gazes). Sure, there's a few duds ("Teso dos Bichos" springs to mind), but for the most part, even the self-contained episodes are intriguing. There's even a few comedy-centered plots ("War of the Coprophages" and "Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space'" are great) to spice up the show. While I remember many episodes from my youth, most of what's left in the show will be new to me. Seasons 4 and 5 (along with 3) are generally regarded to be the best, so I'm definitely looking forward to them.
