Carter did not disappoint. Tonight's finale to the eighth season of The X Files raised more questions than it answered, ticked off members of the Society for the Protection of Alex Krycek, and taught us all what the truth is.

Mulder kissing Scully with the baby between them comes at just the right time, when Mulder is scheduled to becomes scarce on the series next season. All those years spent developing the mutual sexual and psychological energy as the relationship between the two developed and deepened will not be wasted the way it has been in other series (here, Moonlighting comes to mind). That is, if Carter has his head on straight.

Sometime, when I have nothing better to do, I might try to list all of the unanswered questions associated with this series... then again... why bother? Salient among the issues I'd like answers to are the following: Why did Billy Miles appear to be an aggressor up until the last minute? Who were all the people who arrived for the blessed event? (or should it be: Blessed Event, as the "subtle" hints about the light in the sky and the three kings Lone Gunmen bearing gifts might imply?)

The kiss was nice. Doggett's exchange with Kirsch at the end was better. All the unanswered questions are the best.

Cheers...

I've missed a few episodes from this season and last season, so I don't always know what's going on with the show. I did see tonight's episode though. They haven't told who the baby's father was have they? If I missed that somewhere, I hope I don't sound too silly for asking.

Well, if that was developed, I missed it too. :^)

This is one of my more favorite season finales of the X-Files, simply because it didn't end in a cliffhanger. Sure, there were unanswered questions, but there always are. But theres a feeling of completion, not intense excitement waiting for the summer to end.

hee, so I wasn't the only one noticing all those references either.. ;) Though I thought in the conversation preceeding the kiss, that it seemed like Mulder was the father. I could be crazy though. Just the talk about naming the baby after his father, and about the truth of her pregnancy. Maybe I'm reading too much into that.

Ohh Krychek. He really had it coming from Skinner.
