Description:
Now you can own the entire seventh season of THE X-FILES™. ALL 22 classic episodes from David Duchovny's last full season as Agent Fox Muler are available for the first time in this exclusive 6-disc collector's edition. From Scully discovering the alien spacecraft in 'The Sixth Extinction' and Mulder finally learning the truth about his sister in 'Closure,' to Mulder's own disappearance and Scully's miraculous pregnancy in 'Requiem,' these Season Seven episodes are a must for every X-Files fan!
Amazon.com:
With the original conspiracy plot arc having fallen into a muddle of loose ends, once-hungry lead actors on the verge of big-screen careers and making demands for more time off or shots at writing and directing, and the initial wish list of monsters-of-the-week long exhausted, it's a miracle that by its seventh season The X-Files was still making its airdates, let alone managing something pretty good every other show and something outstanding at least once every four episodes. The season opens with a dreary two-parter ('Sixth Extinction' and 'Amor Fati') and winds up with the traditional incomprehensible cliffhanger ('Requiem'), but along the way includes a clutch of episodes that may not match the originality of earlier seasons but still effortlessly equal any other fantasy-horror sci-fi on television.
The highlights: 'Hungry,' a brain-eating mutant story told from the point of view of a monster who tries to control his appetite by going to eating disorder self-help groups; 'The Goldberg Variation,' a crime comedy about a weasely little man who has the gift of incredible good luck, which means Wile E. Coyote-style doom for anyone who crosses him; 'The Amazing Maleeni,' guest-starring Ricky Jay in a rare nonfantastic crime story about a feud between stage magicians that turns out to be a cover for a heist; 'X-Cops,' a brilliant skit on the TV docusoap Cops with Mulder and Scully caught on camera as they track an apparent werewolf in Los Angeles (season-best acting from David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson); 'Theef,' a complex revenge drama with gaunt Billy Drago as a hillbilly medicine man stalking a slick doctor; 'Brand X,' a horror-comic tale of corruption in the tobacco industry; 'Hollywood AD' (written and directed by Duchovny), in which Tea Leoni (Duchovny's wife) and Garry Shandling are cast as Scully and Mulder in a crass movie version of a real-life X-file; and 'Je Souhaite,' a deadpan comedy about a wry, cynical genie at the mercy of trailer-trash masters who haven't an idea what to wish for. --Kim Newman

Rating: - The Last True Season of The X-Files
Technically, the show went on to season 9, but every fan knows the X-Files of old only made it to season 7. Bouncing back from the heavilly comedic season 6, S7 is perhaps the most self-aware and somber of the series. Here, Mulder and Scully have basically conquered the alien conspiracy and defeated their primary enemy. So what's left? Self exploration is the tone of this season, Mulder looks inward to find what really happened to his sister, and the answer is quite inspiring (if a bit too in tune ... Read More
Rating: - An Emotional Season
The Seventh Season of the X-Files is all about emotion. Whether taking the form of developing the Mulder-Scully romantic relationship or providing long-awaited closure to key plotlines, this season packs an emotional punch. Though perhaps beginning to stretch themselves a bit thin in the stand-alone episode department, this season still receives five stars from me due to its handling of some of the show's most intimate topics. Let's quickly look at how emotions played a big role in this season: ... Read More
Rating: - Season seven: the best season of the entire nine year run
Season seven is, without a doubt, the best X-Files season of all. Some favorite episodes from this season:
Hungy: A boy has an unusual eating disorder that is causing him a lot of distress.
Millennium: Mulder and Scully are brought in to deal w/ the Millennium group. And the greatly anticipated first Mulder/Scully onscreen kiss also takes place in this episode.
The Goldberg Variation: A man has a very unusal streak of good luck, though his luck normally causes bad luck to the people ... Read More
Rating: - If You Want To Believe
I never got the chance to see the X Files when it aired originally. I tuned into it when it first aired in syndication on TNT around the 4th season and didn't think too much of it at first due to the silly stand alone episodes. I began watching it again a few months later and got caught up in it. Subsequently I ended up buying every season and paying top dollar for each. I was rather dismayed when the entire collection dropped dramatically in price a little more than 6 months later. That said, I don't ... Read More
