season2 - the best season FULL SKULL BABY!

if you aren't a fan of the x-files but would like to get into the show! this is the box set to get! i consider it the best season of the x-files! with better and improved packaging than the first box set, the x-files season 2 dvds are just as wonderful, if not better because FOX actually listened to consumers. FOX improved the sturdiness of the box and also the dvd holders, they are easier to handle than before where u have to pry them from the case.

New "The Truth About Season Two" Documentary Chris Carter talks about 12 episodes from Season Two nothing major, i wish it was longer and we had comments from the actors/etc ppl too.

Special effects clips Behind-the-scenes clips Deleted scenes

alot more than what was seen on the first season set. good to see how the sets, etc were built and what difficulties they faced.

9 "Behind-the-truth" spots from F/X 49 promotional television spots Full-screen format if you are a x-files fan, you probably already have seen the F/X spots online. not alot of good additions, but nonetheless still good to include these. i dont like the fact that FOX put these old videos on the DVD, but oh well.

OVERALL, very much worth the money for the package!

Lots of time to save for this set hehehe ... FULL SKULL BABY!
Whoopee! Glad they're coming out with Season 2 later this year. That means I have roughly 6 months to save for this set!

As one may gather, I'm obviously an x-phile - how else can one explain a five-star rating for a dvd boxed set which isn't even available yet? Heck, I'm still waiting for my Season 1 gift set order from amazon to arrive.

Here's a rundown of the second season episodes:

1) Takes off from the season one finale. After the X-Files have been shut down, Mulder & Scully journey to Puerto Rico. 2) Introduces fan-favorite The Flukeman, a genetic mutation living in the New Jersey sewer system. 3) Residents in a small community suddenly become violent, apparently urged on by digital readouts ordering them to kill. 4) Introduces Alex Krycek (Nicholas Lea). 5) Mulder is in the middle of a hostage negotiation involving alien-abductee Duane Barry. 6) Continues from the previous; Mulder pursues Barry who has kidnapped Scully. 7) My personal favorite! Vampire-themed episode featuring Duchovny's then real-life girlfriend Perrey Reeves. 8) Scully is found, albeit in a coma. 9) Deadly lifeform living in a volcano. 10) Agents investigate a possible connection between several teenager disappearances and a religious cult. 11) Strange unseen attacks in a nursing home. 12) The personality of a serial killer is transferred to his granddaughter 13) An "escalating fetishist" episode, where one's relatively harmless "hobby" turns homicidal. 14) Satan worshippers pay for their laxity! 15) Voodoo episode. 16) Features horror genre fan-fave Brian Thompson (Fright Night, Kindred) as the alien boutny hunter. Mulder meets long-lost sister Samantha (or does he?). 17) Continues from previous. 18) Animal abductions from a zoo near a major UFO hotspot. 19) Partly inspired by "The Philadelphia Experiment". 20) Great episode featuring circus acts, Jim Rose, and the Conundrum! 21) Possession story featuring the Romanian holymen the Calusari. 22) Plague-like epidemic sweeps a prison facility. 23) Killer shadows. For Marvel comics fans this recalls powers of characters such as Cloak and The Shroud. 24) A town hides a terrible secret. Hint - read up on the New Guinea Jale tribe. 25) Cliffhanger episode. Hacker obtains all the Defense Department's files on UFO's - encrypted in Navajo!

NO BRAINER - Get this set of one of the most fascinating sci-fi TV series of all time!

Anohter Outstanding Collection FULL SKULL BABY!
Fox Video continues their outstanding DVD box set collections with the second season of X-Files. Like the first season, we get 7 DVD's with 4 episodes each and a DVD with extras. The way they package their X-Files collections should make other companies think twice on how they release episodes of their series. The second season of X-Files continues many of the ongoing story lines of the first season and really starts to get into the conspiracy story arc. The second season also shows how brave Chris Carter is. While it is still science fiction, episodes like 'The Host' start pushing the limits of what kinds of violence they can show on TV. If you are squeamish, I would avoid that episode. But, the most important series of episodes on the third reason is the Duane Berry story arc. It carries a story about alien abduction over a 4 (really 3, but one has an impact of the 3) episode span. It really kept fans hanging on. As an X-Files newbie, I can't say which season is the best, but the second season is strong. This, as well as future releases of these collections, are "must haves."
