The X-Files: The Gift (2001)
Season 8, Episode 11
9/10
An excellent episode.
29 September 2022
Doggett takes over a case that Mulder was working on, just prior to his disappearance, Doggett believes the worst of Mulder.

It starts off very well, I initially thought it was a bit stereotypical, you could almost imagine it appearing on script as, 'it was a dark and stormy night,' but it's such an intriguing opening sequence, it grabs your attention.

So much going on underneath, we see Doggett trying to find the truth, even if it means throwing Mulder under a bus. Robert Patrick leads from the front, the story is so good, that you're almost unaware of Anderson's absence.

It's certainly very different, it's quite a bleak, pretty gross storyline, but it's very imaginatively written.

Credit to the makeup team once again, the creature looked impressive, actor Jordan Marder is quite striking looking, he looked quite incredible.

A real highlight, 9/10.
