By its third season, The X-Files had grown from a cult hit to a global phenomenon, becoming the most popular show in many countries outside the U.S. Armed with the knowledge that the show was here to stay, series creator Chris Carter expanded its mythology, and the 24 episodes in this boxed set represent arguably the strongest of all the X-Files seasons. As usual, stand-alone episodes explored the paranormal and sometimes terrifying possibilities in mythology, pop culture, and religion. Darin Morgan helps the show to mature by expanding its use of humor, directing classic episodes such as 'Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose' (featuring a fabulous performance from Peter Boyle) and 'Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space.'' Meanwhile, two-part episodes continue to delve into the X-Files own mythology, introducing the alien black oil, the implant in Scully's neck, the mysterious Agent X, and the shape-shifting Jeremiah Smith. But following the complex mythology is not crucial to enjoying the show. The strength of the X-Files lies not in resolution but in feeding the paranoia of its rabid audience by revealing conspiracies that linger in the mind as unanswered questions. Series creator Carter realized wisely that fans did not look to the X-Files to explain the unexplained, but to question that which they thought they understood. The third season was effective because it hinted that while the truth was out there, it was more complex, sinister, and amazing than even Mulder had imagined.
Commentaries and deleted scenes are available for some of the 24 episodes, and the last disc in the set contains numerous TV spots and interviews with the creators about the filming of the third season. --Eugene Wei

Rating:  - The Best Three Episodes from the X-Files!
Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space'.. War of the Coprophages.. and Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose by the amazing Darin Morgan are found in the third season! This alone was the worth of this purchase.
Rating:  - The beginning of a true classic!!
You can't rank any TV show as "excellent" if you haven't watched this!! This is the beginning of the story, and a thrilling/exciting story it will be -for another 8 season and 2 movies, so far-.
Meet Agents Mulder and Scully and get involved in their quest for the Truth (yeah, with a capital letter) and see how "The Partnership" is formed and developed (yeah, theirs is "the partnership", the one and only, many times imitated, never succesfully reproduced).

Rating: - A Very Good Season, Not THE Best Though...
X-Files season 3. Ah, bliss. The show had not yet become overly complicated, and the dismal days of Doggett and Reyes were far off. Just Mulder and Scully and some good old fashioned recurring conspiracy characters for ya!
I like this season. It is one of the top four I would say, and many people will disagree, calling it the best set of episodes the series has to offer. I couldn't argue with that, it just all has to do with personal preference.
Season 3 is actually pretty lighthearted, ... Read More

I got into watching X-Files because a few people on my first ship were watching it. I watched it religously and when it came out on DVD, I was in HEVEAN.
