i just finish review all 9 season of the x file ( while watch the 8th and 9th season for the first time ) and i guess that my comment be not only about the last episode but also about both last season . the first thing that i realize be that at least for me the show be base on agent mulder and his special non romantic relationship with sculley and the last 2 season totally ruin that and mulder mostly isn not there and when he be the he deal with the romance with sculley and their baby . although i think robert patrick ( agent dogget ) be quite good he be still no match for david duchovny a an actor . i find the last 2 season lack the great acting and the great sense of humor there be in the first season ( especially 1 6 ) . the last 2 season really turn one of the great series to just another sci fi series and and thats why i think it would be much good the show would end with the end of the 7th season ( mulders abduction by the alien ) . that would save u the 2 season that take the show down and also would be a great point to a sequel movie if there be ever gon na be one .
