Revisiting The X Files: S03 E13: Syzygy


Season 3:  Episode 13:  Syzygy 

After starting with a very young Ryan Reynolds being led to his death because of his sexual drive, this episode has a great premise, but perhaps just goes a little over indulgent that for my satisfaction.

Scully smoking, Fox drinking, even though as he states he knows he doesn't drink much, just went too far beyond the 'believable unbelievable' for me. I felt the script played for cheap laughs that didn't really beholden to the characters. Not as cleverly written in that respect as the last episode, which used humour in a much better way.

Rating:  Women causing trouble once again.  3.5/5
