Fallen Angel..., 17 August 2008
Author: AdnanZ

"Fallen Angel" is one of my big disagreements with the general consensus of the X-Files fanbase. I really don't care for this episode at all. Sure, there's some fun moments and a good supporting character in Max Fennig, but the episode as a whole is far from striking or memorable, and is actually remarkably amateurish script-wise and completely lacking in any quality characterization, and featuring very, very little good dialogue.

Like most season one mythology episodes it doesn't get to the meat of the conspiracy storyline, and is instead a superficial and repetitive UFO tale. As expected from a Gordon/Gansa script there's really more fizzle than pop here, and ultimately an episode that has very little to offer.

4/10
