X-Files

It might just be the light-headedness from the cleanse diet, but when I was looking for something different to watch between 10-11 the other night, I picked up an old boxed CD set of the X-Files Season 5. I was on the fence between X-Files, Farscape (geek alert ?) or just listening to music.

I popped in the first disc and watched the season premiere Tuesday, and Part II tonight.

Watching these two episodes, just watching them, how they were filmed, how Mark Snow's music moves the narrative of the story, the chemistry of the actors...

I remember just why I liked this show so much.

Sometimes it's nice to re-discover a novel, a TV show, and old CD you forgot to add to your iTunes library, relax, and enjoy.
