"Oh my god, what was that?!? Did anyone else get the idea that we were watching a Mulder-clone? That was *not* our sexy G-Man. But that made the episode downright hilarious. Before you start throwing pies and Chuckie dolls, let me explain myself. I don't think Stephen King knew how to write for Mulder. He did a very good job with scully, but he was really off with Mulder. Plus, the plot line was a lot like 'Syzygy.' Very confusing, and it wasn't totally explained in the end. So the characters and their actions are what the episode revolved around. I'd like to say, and I know I'm just about contradicting myself here, I really like it. In fact, I loved it. I'm jwild about it. But I know there will be some people who think it was a total waste of air space. The same people who disliked 'Syzygy' and 'Jose Chung.' Did anyone detect a little bit of Pendrell-ism in the Sheriff? I think he liked Scully. I liked Scully's outfit at the beginning. The shirt and jeans were cool, and I want those sun glasses. Anyway, I thought the whole conversation about the statistics of decapitation was extremely funny. Poor Mulder, nothing to do except swing on the back of an office chair. He's so completely lost without her. "Marry me" Ok, I'm sure every Phile went absolutely nuts the first time M&S held hands. They probaly had coronaries the first time Mulder kissed Scully's cheek/forehead/whatever. well, here is another great milestone in M&S Shipper History. He's proposed. She didn't give him an answer, that's true. Take that however you want to, I'm not gonna get into that arguement. But the point is...We can now say that Mulder has asked Scully to marry him. The context does not matter. That scene will go down in history. My little sister has a porcelain doll collection. So far she has 9 dolls on shelves in her room. I will no longer go in her room. The one she calls Emily looks just like Polly's doll. Spooky. Polly looked just like Eve. And why did Melissa look like another samantha clone? I thought she was one when I first saw her. And, again, why Melissa? Duplicate names are big on this show. Personally, I loved the pencils. It was so cute!! Oh my gog, I was screaming. Mulder's so sweet...so cute. I loved the one that hit him on the head. In the end scene, they were acting really weird around each other. Not at all comfortable. I'm so sure that they could tell the other was acting. You know how Scully said she needed to get out of her head for a few days? Well, she did. I think a lot of people thought that she couldn't get away from work, and that her vacation was a waste. She kept going on another case throughout her time off. Scully got out of *her* head. But she got into Mulder's. She did everything that Mulder would have done. She thought as Mulder would have thought. She said the things that could only come out of Fox William Mulder's mouth. So she *did* have a vacation. She got away from her views. She wasn't the skeptic for awhile. And i think she wanted the "I Want to Believe" poster for herself. I loved the basketball thing. And Scully hung up on him 3 times! He needs some of that. See how it feels! Plus, I loved the phone cord twirl thing he did. How cute. I was laughing so hard! I thought that video was so funny. He's sitting there all engrossed. I was thinking: "Whatever tape you found in the machine isn't mine."~Mulder "Good, because I put it back in the drawer with all those other tapes that aren't yours."~Scully ('Excelsius Dei')"

"Good writing by some unknown poor guy who lives in a muddy shack somewhere. Who, when he's not working at the Gap at the mall, writes obscure horror novels that nobody knows about. What's his name again..Stephen King, that's it. King's writing is usually gripping in it's accessable flowing rhythm, and of course, unless you've been living on an frozen slope on Pluto or on the Planet Bangor, you know he is a world swamping addiction of a writer with his own style, but for the most part, what he writes about are vampires, ghosts, devil dolls. Things " every people " can understand, grasp on to and identify with, like Levis jeans, kinda generic and boring even when they craftily unfold in his trademarked preshrunk horror meets everyday America style. Anyway, what saves this episode from being just another pair of average pants, is King's inclusion, one leg at a time of priceless comedic interactions between Mulder and Scully, and glimpses into Mulder's life or lack of one...and... Micowaved Chuckie is always a plus, size small and in any color."

"Despite popular opinion, I loved Chinga. Though the doll plot was a little bland *I want to play, I want to play, I want to play, don't play with matches, don't play with knives, let's play with the hammer...OYE!* Chinga was classic Stephen King. The whole episode practically reeked Stephen King! I mean, the police officers in Maine, the whole doll thing, the blood... I loved it. Let me just say, seeing Mulder pining for Scully was a wonderful thing. Chinga was War of the Coprophages reversed, with Mulder being the one left behind as Scully had all the adventures, and, while Scully went on a huge eating spree in WOTC, Mulder seemed to enjoy throwing pencils at the ceiling in Chinga. To see that woman hit herself in the head with that hammer against her will was bone-chilling. The whole episode was downright frightening! Well, I guess this episode made me say, "Mulder, I love you to death, but, believe me....you need Scully." Overall, I gave this episode a nine, because even though there were a few dull moments, Chinga was a scary, surprising, and fun episode."

"I think this has been the best episode aired since Redux II. It wasn't as scary as I was hoping it to be, but it had a really good plot and great acting. This episode for the first time in a long time left me with a feeling of resolution, well as much resolution you can get from X-Files. Not counting the fact that the doll is still out there somewhere, but I don't count that. The only reason this got a 9 is because my favorite episodes usually have both Mudler and Scully equally. In this episode, Mulder was there for comic releif. Now that I know for a fact that CC wouldn't do anything to jeperdize the Mulder/Scully relationship, I can laugh at and actually enjoy little quotes like "Scully?........Marry me." Sorry Shippers, for once the antishippers get rewarded!"

"I'm a huge fan of Stephen King so I couldn't wait to see what he would do to a X-File episode. I wasn't at all disappointed........."Chinga" was absolutely frightening. Although I personally found the little girl a little creepier then the doll. The perfect ending would have had the mother turning the little brat over her knee and giving her a good spanking! A big thank you for Mulder's comic relief! The annoying phone calls to Scully was hilarious."

"The killer doll thing is,well what can I say,a little too played?Although it was a good "played" ep.It was a cool kind've werid too.I liked it.I also liked it when ever Mulder got bored and couldn't help but to call Scully up,who, with her impatientice hung up on him every time.Then at the end he was imbarrested of his actions when he was bored.That was real cute.Good going Mr.King!

"An episode this chilling could only have come from the mind of the terrifyingly gifted writer, Stephen King. I found myself having visions of the book "Pet Semetary" as I watched Polly's doll wreak havoc on the people of the town. In addition, some comic relief from David Duchovny proved helpful in relieving some of the tension of "Chinga"."

"I Enjoyed guest writer Stephen King. It is a bit gory, but I guess it was necessary for this particular story. Nice to have variety again in the stories. Never enough on Mulder and Scully's lives."
-Karen V.-

"That was a strange, but cool episode. It was hilarious! The way Mulder doesnt have a life without Scully! That and some other parts were cool. The X-File it self wasnt that great. But it surley want the worst either!"
-Ula B.-

"An exilent episode by Steven King! Of course there was the suspence and weirdness by Steven King, but he also added some great humor between the agents."
-Shannon H.-

"It was freaky, good, and had a good plot about the evil doll, but they could have made the end more interesting."
-Julius B.-

"Awesome episode! Had everything that you could possibly want in an X-Files. Way to go Stephen King!"
-Julie W.-

"I loved the episode it was funny and very original. I hope that there are more like that to come."
-Spencer A.-

"I loved it!!"
