The X-Files: The Complete Second Season - DVD [6 Discs]

We love the Xfiles and we’re glad to add this season to our collection

Absolutely a wonderful purchase. I could watch them all weekend, Thank you Best By.

Season 2 of the The X-Files was the beginning of the show's transition from cult series to pop culture phenomenon. Picking up from the shocking events of the season one finale, FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully have been separated and the X-Files have been closed. But there are still strange phenomenon to discover...and the growing government conspiracy involving the existence of aliens and connections to Mulder's family. The season is most famous for Scully's abduction (originally done to explain Gillian Anderson's pregnancy, it deepened the alien mythology and set the show on the course of excellent it maintained for most of its run). Upgraded to HD picture and with a widescreen presentation, the show looks better than ever and is aggressively priced. Whether you want to refresh your memory before the new show or are discovering it for the first time, pick it up.

Gillian Anderson's pregnancy is probably the best thing that ever happened to this show, as it forced the writers to think outside the box and ultimately create the arc that centered around Scully's abduction, the catalyst that really drew Mulder & Scully together as the quest for the truth became markedly personal to both of them even as it reached to ever more life-threatening heights. The stand alones are superb in this season, with 'Red Museum', 'Firewalker', 'Humbug' (the show's first foray into comedy), and 'Irresistible' (which introduces one of the creepiest villains ever, Donnie Pfaster), and alongside mythology episodes like 'Colony', 'End Game', and the first true cliffhanger 'Anasazi', season 2 of 'The X-Files' catapulted the show to new heights among television entertainment, making this a must-have season for the true fan!

If you are reading this review then you are an X Files fan. This is hands down one of the best science fiction series out there, I was sad when the series ended. I purchased all 9 seasons on DVD and very happy with the series on DVD with one complaint, the inability to watch each show consecutively. Currently, when an episode ends, I have to select the next one and click play, I don’t know what they were thinking when they created these DVD’s but they are all like this. I want to be able to click play and watch the all episodes on the DVD without being prompted click play just to watch the next episode.
