Customer Ratings & Reviews

Sci-fi is one of my favorite subjects and this hit series just hits the bullseye!

I bought this for a birthday gift! He is a big fan of x files

I've always been a fan of the X-Files! I'm glad it returned to prime time TV.

this is X-Files Season 1. If you'll like this, you probably already know it.

Good tv show. It's a classic! Everyone should get into the Xfiles!

THIS WAS A START TO A GREAT 10+ YEARS SERIES OF SYFY MYSTERIES.

It reminds me of why I liked it when it was on tv.

If you a fan of this series you have to own this tape.

The first season of the science fiction television series The X-Files commenced airing on the Fox network in the United States on September 10, 1993, and concluded on the same channel on May 13, 1994, after airing all 24 episodes. The first season introduced main characters of the series, including Fox Mulder and Dana Scully who were portrayed by David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson respectively, and recurring characters Deep Throat, Walter Skinner and Cigarette Smoking Man. The season introduced the series' main concept, revolving around the investigation of paranormal or supernatural cases, known as X-Files, by the Federal Bureau of Investigation; it also began to lay the groundwork for the series' overarching mythology. Initially influenced by Kolchak: The Night Stalker and The Twilight Zone, series creator Chris Carter pitched the idea for the series to Fox twice before it was accepted for production. The season saw the series quickly gaining popularity, with ratings rising steadily throughout its run; and garnered generally positive reviews from critics and the media. It helped to make stars of its two lead roles, and several of its taglines and catchphrases have since become cultural staples. Used to own on VHS and DVD. Has ALL features from Season 1 and the various Compilation DVDs for this Season. Featured in 1.78:1 which the original broadcast was 1.33:1 TV ratio. For those who'd rather have both aspect ratios, it's recommended to keep the DVD when having the Blu-ray disc.

This is the season where it all begins. Although Scully was sent to debunk Mulder's work on the X-Files, the chemistry between the two characters are enthralling. For only knowing each other for such a short amount of time, they place complete trust in one another. The pilot is an excellent episode, setting the stage by saying it is based on actual events. The viewer sees the work and dedication Mulder and Scully put into the X-Files, even if it's just to be covered up by mysterious government agents. The season itself is filled with aliens, mutants, and government conspiracies. We get a lot of information on Mulder's background, making him a sympathetic character. Scully makes a great female lead because she knows how to kick butt. For a Sci/Fi show, the X-Files is pretty realistic. People who die stay dead, unless their body was never found. And even some of the supernatural events are based on real claims.

It's been a real long time but finally its out on Blu-ray! The X-Files in 16:9 high definition Blu ray! Been a huge fan since season 1 and i finally get to re live these massive TV moments in awesome detail and quality! Being a believer of the paranormal and government conspiracies i instantly got turned on to this excellent show! In most episodes, Mulder and Scully investigate paranormal happenings that defy the laws of nature or the universe. Scully proves to be ever the skeptic she set out to be, never being convinced of Mulder's work. Should you pick this up if you are a fan? Absolutely. Is it worth it? Positively! I will be slowly collecting the whole series!

Great release of a sci-fi classic series. I recommend grabbing the individual seasons and getting the rest as you watch, thus saving you money over investing into the entire set at once. Very fun show, albeit a bit "retro/oldschool" compared to modern shows

Love the x-files, and watching them on blu-ray is the absolute best! Thank you Best Buy for having this and at a really great price.

I bought the first season to get a feel for the quality of the Bluray release and was really pleased with it. Great entertainment.

Enjoy watching this show. Great to have all the seasons to watch whenever I get the chance.

X-Files the way it was to supposed to be viewed. Clarity and color are superb!!

Love this series. Never gets old. Bestbuy also has best price

I'm so happy I found it on sale AND blu Ray!!!!!!!

Good season but looks like lesser season after future seasons like 3 and 5 and 6. Love widescreen Blu-ray transfers--they look so much better than so-so DVD transfers.

And its finally on blu ray. Yay! And at what a deal!
