Hey guys! whoa, it's ages since I wrote anything about a TXF ep so this may be a little incoherent. ummm, add a 'more' into that sentence somewhere. ;o)

I found Hungry interesting - I didn't hate it, but it wasn't one of my favouritest eps. I figured out that the story was being told from the pov of the monster guy, Rob, which made for a different slant on the M/S interaction. Funny that he saw Mulder as that lightning fast, almost telephathic, Columbo type heavy cop. I also LOL'ed at the 'Good cop, insane cop' line, Sleepless.

I totally agree on the points you brought up as being unbelievable (but then, this is TXF, after all). How come that rumbling tum only started bothering Rob the past few weeks? What had he done up to then? Maybe those Lucky Boy burgers just weren't the same any more. ;o)

Overall, it was an OK ep, but certainly not one of my faves. Not enough Mulder and Scully, and those stick-on ears were completely bizarre - were we supposed to laugh or be scared when he took them off? Wouldn't it have been scarier to have him as a 'monster in human form'?

I admit the "good cop..." line was funny but that was about all I liked! nim (NT) -- detoured, 02:21:43 06/04/00 Sun
