I'm just going to safely assume that the entire last half of the last season was just a bad dream and they wake up in the pilot of this new season. It'll make more sense that way.

There are 9 seasons, which yes, is a lot to watch before January, considering they generally have 24-25 episodes per season. I'm currently watching the series for the 1st time, and am just beginning S4. What I can tell you is that there's a very clear formula for every season, which consists of a handful of "mytharc" episodes spread out throughout the season which focus on the main big picture story of the series (always including the season premiere and finale), and the rest are pretty much standalone "monster-of-the-week" type deals. While I do feel some of the very best episodes of the series are those standalone eps, and you'd miss out on a lot of great stuff by skipping them, it is also possible to JUST watch the mytharc eps and pretty much know what's going on.

Here are what I believe to be the essential mytharc eps from the 1st 3 seasons I've watched so far:

Season 1
1x01 Pilot
1x02 Deep Throat
1x10 Fallen Angel
1x17 E.B.E.
1x24 The Erlenmeyer Flask
(NON-mytharc eps from this season you should watch anyway because they're awesome: 1x08 Ice and 1x13 Beyond the Sea)



Season 2
2x01 Little Green Men
2x02 The Host
2x04 Sleepless
2x05 Duane Berry
2x06 Ascension
2x08 One Breath
2x16 Colony
2x17 End Game
2x25 Anasazi
(NON-mytharc eps you should watch: 2x13 Irresistible, 2x14 Die Hand Die Verletzt, 2x20 Humbug)


Season 3
3x01 The Blessing Way
3x02 Paper Clip
3x09 Nisei
3x10 731
3x15 Piper Maru
3x16 Apocrypha
3x24 Talitha Cumi
(NON-mytharc eps you should watch: 3x04 Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose, 3x12 War of the Coprophages, 3x17 Pusher, 3x20 Jose Chung's From Outer Space)

I doubt it. In the later half of the series Mulder was affected by his abduction and has some form os ESP....in the promos you can tell that he still experiences something

Individual Bluray Season Covers...

Not crazy about those, tbh.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

I like the majority of them...

 

[Hunter Rider]

I like this cover.

 

[flickchick85]

I like most of those covers, but they seem to get worse as they get into the later seasons. Which I guess is kinda appropriate based on what I've heard about those seasons, lol.

why is light coming from their chests in the first one?

 

[ThePhantasm]

i like the season 3 cover

 

[spider-neil]

A little disappointing to hear that there will only be 2 episodes that deal with the mythology, and 4 that are standalone/monster episodes. I was hoping that since there's only 6 episodes, that they would focus more on the mythology.

Bummer....

Couldn't be happier. The mythology episodes bored me to tears but episodes like Toomes (for me) are absolute classics.

 

[ravn0s]

wow couldn't they hire someone with better photoshop skills for those covers?

 

[spider-neil]

That slip box looks way too big for 9 six disk blu boxes.

 

[Zantera]

I also expected more mytharc episodes, at least 3. I would say I prefer the mytharc over stand-alones just slightly because I think you can tell greater stories over the span of several episodes and go deeper into the mysteries, but some of the stand-alone episodes have been among the best of the show, so both formulas clearly work.

I am tickled they are finally releasing the seasons on blu ray. I am going to purchase 1-5 and pick up the other ones when they are on sale. Is there any word on whether season 10 [the comic] is canon?

 

[spider-neil]

My fiance is getting me the complete blu ray set for Christmas.
She's a keeper

That season 4 cover pic looks like its from the first movie.

 

[Kal-El.9859]
