I revisit this topic from the future, six years later.
- That Einstein and Miller both die a painful death.
-> Einstein and Miller are still there and they still suck big time. Awful awful characters. The actors had absolutely no chance with such awful scripts.
- That John Doggett comes back as a major second character.
-> And obviously he didn't. I still don't get why we didn't get the chance to meet Robert Patrick once again. It would have been absolutely great, I am 100% sure of it.
- That we get a sequel of one of our beloved loners from the first seven seasons.
-> Nope, that didn't happen. But the loners were mostly great, so no complaints there.
- That Chris Carter doesn't write any funny sequence.
-> He didn't, even if his scripts are laughable now, but that's another matter.
- That the scripts let Duchovny and Anderson take the time to play their characters the same way as in the first season (slowly and beautifully).
-> Well... they played fine.
- That Mark Snow uses again his piano.
-> I don't even remember the music from seasons 10 and 11. So probably he didn't, but I bought both scores and will spend more time listening to these.
- That the writers take big risks and try to go above and beyond what's asked of them (monster of the week).
-> I had a blast with some loners, such as The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat and Familiar.
- That Skinner is in most episodes.
-> I don't even remember.
