The X-Files had the perfect series finale with this week's episode
https://uproxx.com/sepinwall/the-x-f...ap-spoilers/2/
The penultimate “Nothing Lasts Forever," the second to last episode starring Gillian Anderson, would've been the perfect ending for The X-files and its revival, says Alan Sepinwall. "The episode was produced eighth but is airing ninth, perhaps because all involved recognized how well its themes suited a finale-ish position," says Sepinwall. "In having Mulder and Scully go after a disgusting cult — led by TV’s best reactor to things himself, Jere Burns — that uses stolen human organs and blood in service of eternal youth for the aging sitcom star at the head of it, 'Nothing Lasts Forever' was able to comment not only on the idea of Mulder and Scully still going on these adventures (and looking this good) at their age, but to force them to contemplate their own mortality and the eventual end of their stories." ALSO: Was this the goriest episode in X-Files history? Watch a mashup of The Golden Girls theme song with The X-Files intro |
