The X-Files Revival #5

The X-Files Revival #5

Hi everybody, Mary here.

So, here's the review for the fifth episode in The X-Files Revival ! I can't believe that the next episode will already be the last one.

Anyways, without any further ado, let's get started, shall we ?

Babylon

First things first : the typical insertion of Muslim terrorists is so "Fox" I can't believe these racist assholes didn't do it earlier.

Because at the beginning of the episode, we only see a good person, praying and going on with his life, picking up his friend, being a good citizen (and even recieving the insults of f*cking Texan sh*theads), and going to a place (a car shop ??? It's very fancy anyways).

And then, bang ! A bomb. I thought that maybe, he was just a victim, someone who explodes as soon as he speaks or makes a mistake (I mean, we litterally have an X-Man whose ability is to explode and then reconstitute his body. If anyone can remind me of his name it'd be great thanks) ??? Like this would have been more paranormal than just the talking to a man who's almost dead ??? Whatever I'm pretty sure they just didn't have the idea or the rights... *deep sigh*

But no ??? It has to be a terrorist somehow ???

And then we have this TV show where the black woman is more hateful towards Muslims and the white guy is more tolerant ??? What the ever-f*cking f*ck this isn't remotely acceptable to put all the negative comments on a black woman and praising the white dude as more tolerant, because if it were reality (not f*cking Fox), it'd be the opposite, the black woman who's defending the fact that not all Muslims are terrorists and the white dude categorising all Muslims in the terrorist box.

Anyways. If we go past that we actually have some good stuff a.k.a. :

1) Agents Miller & Einstein being the litteral copies of Mulder & Scully but younger, the sexual tension between those two is seriously so real you could cut it with a knife or something, especially at the end of the episode. I am seriously shipping them so hard & I am now looking for a name for their ship. (If you have any suggestions you can leave them in the comments !!!)

2) Some spirituality, Mulder who's under the influence of a placebo while believeing it's the "real deal", talking to the dude even if not technically under the influence of real drugs, him dancing wih people older than him & talking to strippers (which made me think of his role in Californication, which I don't watch, actually), the Lone Gunmen making an appearence (they are my faves tbh, my polyamorous gay men *blows a kiss for each of them*), slutty Skinner (can't blame him for having some fun times after all the "migraines" Mulder has given him with some crazy theories), MULDER YOU ALMOST GOT HIT BY A CAR YOU LIVING FLOP, Einstein spanking the hell out of him with his "woo-woo", the Smoking Man whipping him, the pietà with the Muslim man and his mother, some Arabic words, and then the hospital and the real consequences of the real world.

3) F*CKING MSR SCENE AT THE END I'M CRYING... They talk about their kid & I believe that they want to take him back everyday even more & have a good family life with a life like everyone else... They just want to be... normal... (wow is this the X-Men or what ??? *nervous laugh*)

Anyways... I think this episode was more about showing the perfect copies of Mulder & Scully and them talking about their child / Scully and her mother / f*cking God and spirituality and sh*t.

Okay, that is it for today, I really hope you enjoyed this episode and I'll see you very soon with something new !

And as usual, our last word : KIDNEYS !!!
