Muddgirl, for not paying adequate attention, you must watch this episode again and write a 2000 word essay on the perils of inbreeding.

OK, so obviously we have a family line of cavedevilpeople. The he-devil was said to be around 40 and she-devil 25 - 30. I imagine cavedevilpeople don’t a huge amount to do apart from hunting, sleeping, and hanging out naked in a cave, I know how I’d probably pass the time. The little devil girl looked to be around 10ish? The naked she-devil looked pretty well nourished to me, so I imagine there could be half a dozen little devil siblings in that cave living the incestuous tribal cave life and snatching random hikers to munch on. This would make a great sitcom

[Josh] Yeah, our love for the show cannot be denied. The first season is a bit rough around the edges, so we’re sort getting off on an extra-snarky foot by definition, but I’ve never once said to myself, “huh, I should start a Family Matters blog”.

The ”dead matador” line nearly killed me too. I have to say though, in this show’s defence, despite the fact that there are hokey episodes like this one, it still stands up. We’re STILL talking about it 15 years later and that ladies and gentlemen, is the definition of a classic TV show. I cannot describe the depth of my love for it, lame lines, awful early 90’s fashion and bluescreen composite shots be damned.

That ” gravity is right” line though. Why, WHY?!

Maybe it’s just me but I always really liked this episode. However, that didn’t stop me from almost dying when you guys said, “This jacket is woven from dead matadors.” My favorite part about re-watching the show is how Scully goes from little old lady fashion victim to smoking hot pwnage, slowly but surely.

Gosh, what a terrible episode!

Good work blogging it, though; and I’m glad you guys aren’t X-Files hagiographers or anything, because really: it’s the best show ever, but it’s SO AWFUL, SO OFTEN. I’m stoked enough anticipating future bad reviews to motivate a re-watch of terrible episodes, maybe.

Oh man oh man, you guys are almost to “Space;” I’m really excited. And I can’t believe I own the same jacket in 2008 as Mulder did in 1993, but blue and maybe ever so slightly more subtle. Slightly.

Okay, so maybe my only jacket is garish and horrible and roughly eighteen years out of style. Crud.

This website is amazing! I got a link for it through XFN. I’m going to tell all the fellow Philes I know about it. You two are hysterical! Can’t wait for the next episode!

Though you must admit, there was one good thing about this episode; it leaves the opening for Scully to say (I forget which ep it’s in) “Keep it up, Mulder, and I’ll hurt you like that beast woman!”

Yeah…“Honey, do you mind holding the light for a secoAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRBGGGGH” That’s exactly how it sounded ;p

Aww, poor Mulder’s knees. I guess he deserves it.

Mulder in the woods, looking for the fucking Jersey Devil. I believe there is a pattern developing here…

ICE COLD BURN. Fo’ sho’.

I’m starting to grow accustomed to these recurring Gesundheit jokes…(Heitzverber?)

She has chosen to wear the stupidest blouse in the history of television dating. A-MEN!

That was definitely worth interrupting her dinner. Jerk. See, I would agree if she hadn’t been secretly wishing the whole time that he’d call. Who wants Mr. Divorcee when you can run around the forests of (VANCOUVER) I mean, Jersey, chasing after a beast-woman? Pssh, besides, Mulder’s way cuter than Mr. Blonde-Boring-What’s-His-Name-Again? I can remember his son’s name (only mentioned once, I believe) but not his. That’s how boring he is.

Also, Scully is wearing one hell of a red jacket: She saw the Scotch tape packaging and was like ‘Damn, I need me a jacket like THAT.’

ROB! That’s his name! *has already re-forgotten it*

*sigh* I’d still watch this one again. No clue why…I guess it’s worth it for the Scully/Mulder interaction. And Mulder!burns. And random homeless (artist?) guy!
