2.0 out of 5 stars Synopses waste of space, Mar 8 2004
By Richard Chung (West Covina, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love the X-Files, and I wanted to read more of the "backstory" of each episode.

Instead, most of the book is wasted on the synopses for each episode. Usually, 6 pages is wasted on the story summary, and only one page on the backstory.

We don't need 6 pages of story summary for each episode: we can watch that! Instead, give us more on the background!

4.0 out of 5 stars Love This Season!, Aug 15 2002
By "conspiracy_8" (Somwhere, Over the Rainbow) - See all my reviews
Of course, I love this guide; has my favorite episode: Bad Blood. To tell you the truth I enjoy anything X-Files related so it's up to you to judge for yourself if you decide to buy. It seems they continue to improve as each guide comes out so I have nothing to complain about.

Very in depth with the details on each episode, and a whole bunch of black 'n' white pics. The thing is, if you buy this guide it would appear that you would have to buy the next one, makes sense Don't ya think? It continues, of course, so save up because ALL the Guides are GREAT! It's almost as close to reading the Script itself . . . Well maybe not that detailed but close enough. I'm sure any X-Files fan out there will agree with me and say that buying this will not disappoint you. Hey! I'm sure you've alredy bought it without looking at what any of these reviews have to say including this one Right Here. . . . Good Decision! Your own opinion is the best way to go! Enjoy as I have!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not much new, Oct 29 2000
I was a bit disappointed with this book. I (of course) have the whole season 5 on tape and so the scripts were familiar to me. I'd have expected more "behind the scenes" info from this book. Good for those who don't have season 5 on tape or who are new to the X-Files world, but for me - not much new.
