The X-Files Seasons....
I'm currently trying to watch the whole series, all the way through(first time to do so)...all 9 seasons. Currently I'm in season 5, and I've noticed a rather weird/annoying quirk about the show.

At the end of season 4, Skinner is doing cover up work for the smoking man, and Mulder finds out that Skinner is up to no good. The main crux of the episode was a mail worker, who got stung to death by bee's, but the bee's were carrying small pox, and later on the bee's are unleashed on a playground and a bunch of kids get infected. At the end of the episode, it stated "to be continued" yet...they didn't continue anything....

Do they pick up this story arc, later on?(I believe this arc goes into the first X Files movie)...also, when the black assassin/informant guy gets killed in Mulders hall way, and he writes those four letters on the floor in his blood...Mulders main informant dies, in his hallway, yet Mulder, nor anyone in the show even make mention of the death...and essentially the baton of informant is handed to a blonde lady from the Canadian Govt.

I just find it weird that there are GLARING holes like that in the show...especially the to be continued one, with Skinner, and the bee's...the following episode was like...small potato's(or some other freak of the week).

I loved this show when it was originally being aired, and its GREAT that they are releasing them in dvd sets, I've been watching non stop X Files for at least two weeks....I'm just wondering if anyone else caught these glaring...missteps.

1. Marita Cararubius - Works at the United Nations
For the Under Secretary I believe. Didn't know she was Canadian.

I loved Season 3 and 4 the best. Especially the episode "Pusher."

2. I used to love that show
There were a few holes and a few times Carter changed direction quickly, but overall it was fun to follow. Can someone remind me how Krychek (sp?) got out of the tanked sealed with the "black oil". I forgot how he got out. He was my favorite character on the series.

3. Hmm, I think it was a salvage group
who got Krycheck out. They were out there stealing metal/recyclables and they found Krycheck, and he came up with some story(of how they can make money) and they let him out.
