X-Files - The Complete Second Season

Pros: All the episodes of my very favorite X-Files season -- all in one set!

Cons: There are some great extras, but I still want more!

The Bottom Line: Absolutely the best way to watch an excellent television show! Season two is my very favorite X-Files season, and I cannot recommend these DVDs highly enough.

Review: The Show:

What do you do when your leading lady becomes pregnant? Why, have her get abducted by aliens, of course!

But first the basics -- The X-Files television show followed the investigations of FBI Agents Fox Mulder...

Pros: excellent balance of ongoing stories and stand-alone stories, characters fleshed out, good comic moments

Cons: some episodes weaker than others, the way deleted scenes are presented within the episodes

The Bottom Line:

Gillian Anderson's pregnancy might have been the best thing that could have happened to this series.

Review: After a fantastic first season of The X-Files, new challenges awaited the cast and crew at the start of the second season. For one, co-star Gillian Anderson was pregnant. Although she was sure she would be replaced, the producers chose...

Pros: exceptionally great season, some great story arcs, characters developed further, great finale

Cons: none!

The Bottom Line: Building off the first season, the second set of DVD's from the X-Files vault improved upon every facet of the show, and really set the groundwork for future episodes.

Review: The second season of the hit television show The X-Files finally gave creator and director Chris Carter the chance to stretch his wings creatively, and it afforded him the ability to really flesh out the characters of the show. After the...

Pros: Dark, disturbing, imaginative, gripping stories, improved effects

Cons: A little too ambiguous with some of the endings

The Bottom Line: X Files might just be the best TV show ever. Season 2 is strong with nice TVD offerings.

Review: X Files got off to a great start in its first season. I don t know that season 2 improves so much as it just solidifies the direction that will become essential to the series mostly in beginning the linear progression of the episode to episode...

Pros: Acting, Stories, Character, Effects

Cons: One or two shaky episodes

The Bottom Line: Frightening and fast-paced, the second season of "The X-Files" begins bigger serialized arcs and puts Mulder and Scully in more intriguing danger than before!

Review: Once upon a time, television shows that filled an hour timeslot ran for almost fifty minutes and the television season ran for an indeterminate number of episodes, but unless it was British, it had at least twenty-six episodes. This comes to mind as...

Pros: Great Show. Makes our family spend time together

Cons: Addictive. Not for young children

The Bottom Line: You have to watch several The X-Files episodes to really appreciate them!!! Great Show.

Review: Our family is addicted to the X-Files. Our 14-year-old daughter introduced us to this addiction and family life has never been the same. Sunday's are spent getting prepared to watch the X-files. Family outings, vacations, and parties are planned...

Pros: X-Files Series are the best

Cons: Season 2 DVD may be the cause of a DVD death

The Bottom Line: X-Files, 2nd Season content is truly great. The Quality of the DVD itself may destroy your DVD, really!!!

Review: There are not enough kind things I can say about the X-Files. I have all the seasons on DVD and bought all the tag-along Season books as well. I'm a huge fan and have seen nearly every show.

The problem is that the quality of the DVD for...

Pros: Good video, fun extras

Cons: Difficult to access some extras, strange audio problems

The Bottom Line: Excellent video, fun extras outweigh poor audio. Get a copy, or the flukeman will get you.

Review: "The X-Files" has been, since it was first aired, one of the most consistently interesting and entertaining series on television today. Several years ago, when they first made episodes available on VHS, I was quite pleased, and added several to my...

Pros: Deleted scenes, behind-the-scenes + more bonus features, great quality!

Cons: None at all!

The Bottom Line: My final recommendation is to order this right now! If you even like The X-Files a little bit you will love this!

Review: The X-Files season two gift pack is every bit as good as the first season pack and then some! In contains all of the second season episodes starting with Little Green Men and ending with Anasazi. This is one of the best seasons of The X-Files and is...

Pros: Season 2 yielded some of the series' best writing/directing

Cons: Still waiting for better additional items - interviews, backstage facts, etc.

The Bottom Line: If you love the show, it's a must-have, no question. No amount of clever manual VHS-commercial-clipping will reproduce the quality of this set.

Review: Sure, the Season 1 set was great, as any true-grit XF fanatic will tell you. Clean production, a few foreign language segments, and of course, introduction to the power quartet of Scully, Mulder, Skinner and CSM. But be realistic now - can you...
