A great and also diverse season - By: A. Edge, 20 Sep 2008 
This season was a lot more varied than previous seasons, but most of the episodes were very good or excellent. The season starts directly after the first X files movie which results in Mulder & Scully being (temporarily) taken off the X files & reassigned to AD Kirsch.
There are a lot of highlights in this season. The episode "Triangle" is filmed as if it is one continuous scene, which is quite an achievement. The two parter "Dreamland" is very funny, as it shows how Mulder copes with having an unintentional "body swap" with a "Man In Black" after being exposed to a malfunctioning spacecraft.
The highly confusing alien "syndicate" conspiracy was finallly tied up in the episodes "Two Fathers" & "One Son". This resulted in Mulder & Scully regaining their roles on the X files.
My favourite episode of the season was "Monday", even though it was a "Groundhog Day" rip off. However, it was still very cleverly written, showing how Mulder lived through the same day, which always ended up with him & Scully dying, unless he could somehow learn the lessons from the "previous" day.
David Duchovny also writes & directs "The Unnatural", an episode which looks back at Roswell in the 1940s with an interesting viewpoint.
In conclusion, this season is well worth watching & each episode is very different to the others.
the last great season of this show...its very good and entertaining for the majority - By: S. J. Pinder, 31 Jul 2008 
seasons 1,2 & 3 started the show off with excellent episodes which lead it to a great run.
season 4 & 5 are by far the best,so season six was (of course) going to have difficulties having to match them & the movie.
but this season just about pulls it off,albeit some down episodes it isnt perfect but it is a very,very good season of the show.

The funny episodes are funny... - By: A Jeremiah, 20 Nov 2007 ...which is a good thing as they seem to take up half the season. In previous seasons there have been a few attempts at funny episodes but I haven't enjoyed many (if any of them). They seem to have worked it out for season 6 though so they don't detract from the overalll quality.
The spookier episodes are very good too. The only real disappointment was the one written & directed by David Duchovny.
Looking forward t the arrival of season 7 through my door as I work my way through.
One of the worst X-files seasons. - By: Dr. P. J. Henney, 16 Jun 2007 
Like the Curates Egg, good in parts but lots of boring fillers in between the meat of the Colonisation. Just get on with it!
One of the better x-files seasons. - By: P. Woods, 21 Jan 2006 Being one of the late comers to the show, having started watching it around the 5th season, I decided to watch alll the seasons in order, as I would understand it a lot more. Sitting through them alll, I would have to say that season 6 is probably one of the finest, & most entertaining seasons of the lot. David Duchovny & Gillian Anderson looks like they are reallly enjoying themselves in some of the most interesting episodes of the entire show.
The season kicks off with "The beginning" which is sort of a follow up to the movie. Unfortunately, the episode isn't one of my favourite openings, but it was exciting, as it showed the return of Gibson Praise, & also guest-starred one of the aliens from the movie. The next couple of episodes are some of the seasons' best. "Drive" is one of my personal favourites, as it is about a man who is forced to drive Mulder around the highways at high speed, or he will die. The opening scene to that episode is one of my favourites. "Triangle" is a very entertaining episode, in which Mulder crosses through the Bermuda triangle & gets caught up on a ship that was said to have disappeared during world war II. "Dreamland I/Dreamland II" is a very humorous episode, in which Mulder switces body with another man, after a UFO is seen flying over them. And "How the ghosts stole christmas" is an intertesting story were Mulder & Scully get locked in a house which is believed to be haunted by a married couple at Christmas eve.
Other good episodes include "Two fathers/One son" which basicallly closes of about 5 years of mythology in the show. The conclusion to the episode is breathtaking. "Monday" is another of my personal favourites, in which a woman has to relive the same day over & over again, until she can save Mulder & Scully from being killed by her boyfriend. "Arcadia" shows Mulder & Scully going undercover as a maried couple to try to investigate the disappearences of people in a smalll neighbourhood. It starts of very fun, but ends in a sort of disturbing way. "The Unnatural" is a great episode, in which a story is told about one of America's greatest baseballl players being an alien. It includes a guest appearence by Brian Thompson as the alien bounty hunter. "Field trip" is a very unsettling & confusing episode.
A few episodes do let the season down: "The rain king" is a stupid episode which mostly revolves around a weather man trying to have the guts his long-time friend out. "Alpha" seemed like a good episode, about a killer dog on ther loose, but it just fell flat. "Terms of endearment" wasn't a bad episode, it was just average reallly, about a man who just wants to have a normal baby & he will do anything to make it happen. It does have a good guest-starring Bruce Campbell (The Evil dead films).
The season-finale didn't reallly seem exciting to me, as it didn't reallly have a good cliffhnager (the best ones would be Season 2's "Anasazi" & Season 4's "Gethsamane").
Still, this is probably one of the more experimental seasons of the show. Mixed with episodes of comedy, & some just straight-ahead horror stories.
