The Cold Dead Eyes of a Killer

We both enjoyed episodes 10 & 11 of The X-Files season 1. Not that we don't have a few observations. Questions. Criticisms...

Fallen Angel offers some sort of Predator-like thrills (just be glad you can't see what it actually looks like... Not in a Bird Box sense, more in a 'You might die laughing' sense), hints at much vaster conspiracies but also has us asking awkward questions about what the presumed unseen alien at the centre of all this is up to - while Deep Throat's allegiance is now somewhat questionable.

Eve has Mulder's least logical jump to conclusion ever and on top of that he's incredibly wrong! What initially looked like maybe vampires, but Mulder insists is cattle mutilation turns out to instead be eugenics. Scully remains terrible at talking to kids though.

(but seriously, where did the 8 litres of blood go?)

Kim's Conspiracy Corner surprisingly starts connecting the red thread between episodes as we find that the ghost alien from Space and the seemingly stranded creature in Fallen Angel aren't all that different.
