Just finished watching the first series on DVD. Entertainingly bonkers.

[PAH]

Is it worth watching, or is it a poor X-Files imitation, or goes too silly in a Lost kind of way?

its a more modern take on x-files but after the first season a very strong story line is established which allows the writers to break away from self contained episode stories.

It is however, very entertaining, which is all it needs to do really. Olivia Dunham is also a good reason for watching

Was rather good.

Walter was as demented as ever.

And everyone seems to have forgotten Peter.

I think the concept is that he never existed - hence they don't remember him, or something ......


Maybe he'll come back in series 6, wake up in the shower or something as plausable

Not convinced by this series so far. Get the distinct impression that they are working round a constraint of some sort, like the lead guy actor being unavailable for the first 6 episodes of filming, so are having to get even more creative with the scripts to cover this.

I gave up on it after a couple of espisodes of the last ever series.

S5 was disappointing.

Though it did eventually get around to explaining some stuff.

If anyone was still interested.

S5 is the final season isn't it?

Loved the first 4 seasons it stopped me from going insane here

[Spacecadet]

Season 5 WTF???!!

I have a feeling that the writers have spent 4 seasons digging themselves a hole they can't get out of
