‘The X-Files’ 11×04 Review: To Find Each Other

Well, that was weird, and out there and still so much better than Chris Carter’s platonic musings or medical rape, because at this point, anything and everything is better than the BS Carter is still trying to feed us twenty…

Guest Post: A Brief History of Fangirling by Author Sara Holland

All authors were readers before they were writers. I’m pretty sure this has been the case since the beginning of time, but it’s especially obvious now that social media allows us to get a glimpse into the lives of our…

It’s too late to Fix the Floriana Lima Mistake, So Don’t Bring Maggie Back

Big disclaimer here: I’m speaking as a Latina woman who absolutely hates not just the fake representation that Floriana Lima gives me, but the fact that she has spoken about this fact in a less than sensitive way. I understand…

‘The X-Files’ 11×03 Review: Platonic my arse

I’m going to start this review with a caveat, and I want to be really, really clear here. Just because you’re coming across a mostly positive review about a pretty decent episode of a show that changed my life, introduced…

‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Roundtable: The Good, The Bad and the Ships

It’s been almost a month since Star Wars: The Last Jedi premiered. We’d had time to process. We’d had time to re-watch. We’ve (presumably, at least), come to terms with our feelings.  And we’re ready to articulate them for you.…

‘The X-Files’ 11×01 Review: Our Struggle

Chris Carter has a thing for repeating titles, as “My Struggle III” will attest to (and Redux II, The Sixth Extinction II, Nothing Important Happened Today II, etc). He also has a thing for complicated plot lines no one cares…

David Duchovny Talks ‘The X-Files’ Season 11 and a World that’s Receptive to Mulder

Fox Mulder was always an outsider. That was not just part of his charm, that was one of the things that made the show feel so distinctly sci-fi twenty something years ago, when our faith in the government and its…

Gillian Anderson Talks a Fun Season 11 of ‘The X-Files’

Gillian Anderson has embodied Dana Scully in such a way for so long that, despite the fact that she’s been anything but quiet the last few years, most of us tend to identify her with the character she made iconic.…
