  1. My pleasure! I'm happy to keep it going, and if I'm late with it then anyone who wanna continue, feel free to do so :) Deep Throat was killed off and The Erlenmeyer Flask killed Deep Throat. Only seven left! Pilot Squeeze Ice Eve Beyond the Sea Darkness Falls Tooms Still vote for the two that are your least favourite. (I'm thinking this for two more rounds, then simply voting for your favourite of last three. Sound good?)
  2. Stealing mstakens thunder here, but we've already missed a day! Keeping the ball rolling. We lost Fire and E.B.E.. I'm surprised it was so close between the former and Erlenmeyer Flask. Exciting! The remaining suspects are: Pilot Deep Throat Squeeze Ice Eve Beyond the Sea Darkness Falls Tooms The Erlenmeyer Flask
  3. I'm down with that. I expect the season/actor/mytharc threads will reappear in the front anyways. I'm pumped to get started! However little I might have to say about the eps myself...
  4. If they gotta do the red carpet celeb challenge then I'm always glad it's a Heidi dress. I love watching her in the workroom. She loves her PR, she loves being there, judging, and it shows, and it makes watching PR a much more fun experience than it could have been. LOVED Sean's dress. So glad it won. First time this season where my definite top look won. Did not get Amanda being in the top again. She took Fäde's spot. Again. I thought Emily had a chance of being on top, not that she should've been, but I figured Heidi would be like a moth to a flame looking at that short dress. Korina should've been sent home over Kristine. At least Kristine had a speck of an idea in there, but Korina's was just nothing. One of the few times when I said to myself that I actually could have done that myself, and I can't sow for shit. She must've been safe for the potential drama. I loved Char's "You go, girl" talking head about Sandhiya's borrowing money. I thought the same thing.
  5. E.B.E and Deep Throat. I have trouble remembering it, and I like Fire, so
  6. I saw Free Fall the other day. A new German one about a couple of cops who get it on. One is married with a baby on the way and deeply closeted. Very angsty, as these movies are, and it didn't really bring anything new to the conversation, but these movies are still relevant and as such I really liked it. Well acted, beautiful photography, good script. The hot leads didn't hurt either.
  7. Yep, Sean bring the pretty this season, and I love the accent. He better make it halfway through for that alone. I really liked his deconstructed outfit. I get some of the critique but it was way, way harsh. I thought it was pretty and should've been safe.
  8. I see. I'm so used to reading/posting in series of the past, like X Files, Buffy, Angel, Lost, where no one ever seem to spoiler tag when mentioning other seasons so didn't think about that being a rule.
  9. Yeah, I agree that separate episode threads would be kind of unnecessary, considering they presumably won't be posted extensively in. It's only I feel that the spoiler tagging would ruin the existing season threads. A compromise could be a "Season 1/2/3 REWATCH" thread. Or... ... we forget about the spoiler tagging. I agree with this Taryn74. I mean, would anyone know about the rewatch besides us anyway? Or will it be advertised somewhere else on Previously? I don't know how these things commonly work.
  10. Gillian wrote a book! http://www.avclub.com/article/gillian-anderson-wrote-novel-about-rational-woman--207967 Sounds interesting and X-Files-y.
  11. See, selfishly, I'd rather group watch the eliminated ones (except Space, my god, I wouldn't want anyone to suffer through that). But I get if I'm alone in that so I'm good with the suggested ones (including the three controversal ones + Lazarus... and possibly Shadows and Fire too) Those mytharc ones I haven't watched in forever so those I would look forward to. I think the first few seasons are gonna be the most difficult to decide which episodes not to watch! It would be fun if people who haven't seen The X Files before joined in but if everyone have already watched then spoiler tagging is gonna be a bitch for the mytharc eps! But a rule's a rule. If we're going with spoiler tagging then we should definitely have episode threads so we can talk freely in the Season threads.
  12. This could be an UO but I don't really care that much about the Lone Gunmen either way. I mean, I like them fine, but they never enhanced an episode for me (I think, from what I remember, maybe they're just not in that many episodes that are on my rewatch rotation roster) But, you know, I don't mind them either, but I never ever missed them. They're just sort of there for me.
  13. So do I! I rewatched it not too long ago and I remember thinking some (or a lot) of the "magic" had gone, but now that we're voting I hesitate to vote against it! Yep. The only thing I remember about E.B.E is that there was a truck with a supposed alien in the back and then they talked to Deep Throat at the end and he told them about an autopsy. I was gonna vote for Lazarus but now that I think about which one of the two I'd rather watch, I'd watch Lazarus. Fallen Angel E.B.E
  14. I'm with nosleepforme for the most of it on this one except I think I liked it much more. Yeah, the stand alones were weak (sometimes extremely weak, hello Numero Cinco, Why We Fight) but I liked Harm's Way (and Harmony in general) Lineage and Life of the Party, and Soul Purpose and onwards I thought was great and sometimes superb (besides the aforementioned WWF). AHITW/Shells still gets to me and I love Illyria. I liked Gunn more than I had for years and I learned to tolerate Spike and rarely being bothered by him (which was a big step up from hate with the passion of a thousand suns in Buffy season 6-7). I have a hard time ranking season 1, 4 and 5 they all being so different and I like them in such different ways, tho season 1 is easily the one I rewatch the most. Season 2 is still my favourite and season 3, for me, is the worst (Lilah elevates the season a lot but it's still the worst).
  15. They most definitely made a mistake by killing her off. By the end of season 3 she had become my favourite character too. Stephanie Romanov was marvellous. I don't know why she ever stopped acting (if it was by choice). Then they replaced her with that teenager who slept with Angel and was Lindsey's partner in crime. Bah! I can't ever remember her name! Imagine getting Lilah and Lindsey rivalry again in season 5? That would have been wonderful.
  16. Jesse Eisenberg. I've only seen him play uninteresting assholes and something's telling me he's an asshole in real life too. Ben Affleck. Like Keanu Reeves, a charisma vakuum, but Keanu I find sort of endearing. Ben Affleck just makes me want to punch myself in the face so I wake up.
  17. She took Herbology at Korean Hogwarts before being found out as a muggle.
  18. I have trouble seeing how it could. It will be a hit (in regards to ticket sales) and unless his performance is absolutely awful I doubt he'll get blamed for the quality of the film.
  19. I think we were supposed to infer that the incident caused the baby problem. Massive amounts of radiation or electromagnetism or... something. I think the only thing we're certain of is that it wasn't it problem before the incident. As for Sun, just because she was rich and spoiled doesn't mean she didn't have interests. She never seemed more shallow than anyone else to me. I don't know anything about Korean culture but I wouldn't be surprised if natural medicin is more common knowledge there than in Western countries.
  20. Dexter suicide bombing the precinct killing them all, including Harrison, for no particular reason, would've been better than what we got.
  21. This sounds like fun! I've never been part of a rewatch before, but I'm worried about me following through as well, heh. I read a bunch of what you guys write here but then I either forget to respond of can't think of anything to add. Ah well. I'd certainly be up for trying. As for which episodes, if we're being selective, personally I'd be more interested in watching the good AND the bad. The greats I've watched so, so many times, that I think it would be fun to watch some "bad" ones as well just because I haven't watched those nearly as much and it's fun to pick on episodes that just don't work more than fawning over just the good stuff, you know? Divisive episodes, might be more what I'm going for here. Like, everyone loves Ice, so for me, rewatching Jersey Devil or Fire or Born Again would be more fun, I think. Idk, just an idea. Not that Ice couldn't be rewatched as well! Just an example.
  22. Aw, I like Young at Heart and Born Again. Shame I didn't see this thread til just now! Ghost in the Machine (meh) Fallen Angel (can't stand Max) Miracle Man (zzz)
