This was a very strong episode with Doggett coming into his own and us Mulder fans finding some pay offs for sticking around. Mostly I mean to respond to another review on here who insinuates the show is being inconsistent with character behavior. Doggett still feels like a guest and he's letting Mulder, in a sense, show him what it takes to run the X Files. I don't know that Doggett would be a huge NASCAR fan. I have a feeling that was a shorthand way of emphasizing the difference between Doggett and Mulder. I didn't find the Super Soldier thing particularly confusing. It's just part of the usual X Files deal that is always drawn out, a bit to the show's detriment, in my opinion. But I am very surprised that how strong the show remained long after I stopped watching back in the day.
I feel the X Files is difficult to stick with on a one episode per week regimen, 22 eps per season. That's a hell of a lot to ask of a viewer. I am uniquely available to watch these days. It is a wonderful show. I don't need to tell anybody reading, I'm sure.
