(BONUS #4) Mulder's (Not) Alright, Scully's (Not) Alright: Season 4 In Crisis

This week we’re taking a breather after all this emotional turmoil and taking a look at Season 4 as a whole in this extra-long episode (sorry, guys). We discuss special features, answer some emails/questions, rank the episodes (it gets a little heated in the middle!), and introduce our December Ladness bracket. We’re talking Amanda being personally victimized by Chris Carter, our seasonal insect story, XXX Mulder, none of the cast knowing what a movie is, Mulder loving to be strapped and blasted, how the show refuses to delve into Skinner’s psyche no matter how much we’re clamoring for it, and how Eddie Van Blundht has seen Scully’s tattoo, but Mulder probably hasn’t. Ella expresses enthusiasm for the Bill/CSM/Teena plotline, we discover that Never Again was all about the Wikipedia summarizer sidelining Scully, we recap some of our podcast-centric lore (skip to 2:13:00 if you want the deets!), and we definitively assign ourselves as a Mulder or a Scully.

Note: We will be taking a break next week to catch up on our record schedule. No new episode, but you can participate in our December Ladness minor character bracket over on Instagram! More details to come in a short bonus episode next week, and then back to the regular Season 5 schedule the week after (12/20).
