Orison

"I always get nervous when X-Files brings back characters, it seems to be an admission of no new ideas. And the writers try so hard to take new turns with the character, that they forget what was so interesting about them in the first place. As I recall, Donnie Phaster was a hair, nail, and death fetishist. The Fox network specifically said "not a sex fetish." Too graphic for viewers apparently. So, why was that aspect brought up in Orison? Fox decides it wants to get better ratings by bringing in the sex? And just for the record, a death fetishist wouldn't come back after one victim, the thing that they're fixated on is the physical aspects, they don't focus on the person. Bad, bad I say, Malo. I have to wonder about the title also, what did Orison have to with the episode? He couldn't seem to decide weather or not he wanted to kill Phaster in the episode. I find it hard to believe God was working through him when he was being so indecisive. And even if God was using him as a tool, why did he just let him die? Did he want to buy a new tool? Ah yes, the Scully tool looks good. Tangents upon unconnected tangents. Despite my beef with the episode, I'd have top say that it's one of the better of the season, but then that's not saying much when we look at the quality of this season. The climactic ending was the best part, it was pretty tense. The slow camera thingy they were doing added to the atmosphere in a great way also. And it was great to see Scully dealing with the situation, shows strength and all that. Nice acting. Good, good I say, Kudos. I'm very upset about the furniture she ruined though, I used to work part time in a furniture store and beyond the fact that Scully could never afford all that on an FBI salary, anyone would hesitate to toss it about like that, its really expensive. But I suppose I'm reading way too much into it, God told Scully to "don't look any further," and my disappointment in this episode is telling me the same thing."

"...the return of Donnie Pfaster is a pointless disaster. The story seems to have no reason to exist other than to somehow bring back a character that everyone liked. How do they do this..by using some hackneyed miracle gimmick..and why is Scully sorry she flipped out on Pfaster? Anyone would flip out if they were put in the situation Scully was put in. Is it wrong to kill someone when he has killed prositutes repeatedly in horrendous ways and has tried to kill you twice...and furthermore tells you that all he thinks about all day is killing you...and on top of everything else is completely evil. Commandment Number 11: It's okay to kill Donnie Pfaster. Making someone kill Pfaster is no big feat for the devil. So Scully knows there is evil in the world...wow...big deal. I know that there is boring television in the world..and that's no major revelation either. "

"I pretty much liked this ep.I couldn't help but roll over with laughter when the guy goes "I'm going to draw you a bath.." And Scully screams with all her might "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" That was SO Funny,cause...It's not like he said "I'm going to scalp you" Or "I'm going to Cut your fingures off" No.It was "I'm going to draw you a bath" LOL!!!!! That was just funny to me. lol. Ok,and what was up with Scullys butt shot? LOL Her butt was RIGHT in the camera at one point. I started laughing then too...but that was a lil messed up LOL. And I LOVED The fight scene.I always love Scully fight scenes.Thier always the bomb cause Scully kicks butt! If she took TKD,She would be almost invensible! lol,but I think it's awsome that she kicks butt lol.And one more thing..I give it to that hooker or whatever she was...She was smart for knocking him out right when he started getting roudy and strange with her.Smart move lady.LOL."
