While the first season of The X-Files introduced us to Scully and Mulder, the second season finds the show confidently hitting its stride. Building on its earlier success, the show evolves, and in these 25 episodes, a glimpse is shown of a longer-running story line (which will continue through subsequent seasons) that is woven into the usual stand-alone episodes of the paranormal. These so-called mythology episodes hint at a global conspiracy involving sinister government agents, UFOs, alien abductions, genetic engineering, the ever-lurking Cigarette Smoking Man, and Fox Mulder's father. Season 2 fleshes out Mulder's family history, including the childhood abduction of his sister Samantha, an event that would shape him for life. Actress Gillian Anderson (Scully) became unexpectedly pregnant during season 2, but series creator Chris Carter managed to dance nimbly around her absence and even integrate it into the show. As in season 1, Mulder and Scully are surrounded by a strong supporting cast, which adds a suspicious new agent named Alex Krycek, an informant named X, and a seemingly indestructible alien bounty hunter. Among the standout episodes are "The Host," "Duane Barry/Ascension," "Humbug," "Dod Kalm," "Colony/End Game," and "Anasazi." These episodes are a powerful reminder that The X-Files, like no other show on television, can span horror, suspense, mystery, romance, drama, and comedy, sometimes all in the same episode, and always with the production values of a major feature film. --Eugene Wei

 Anasazi is included in slim-set November 11, 2008
KEVIN G ALUK (Sterling, VA United States)
I just received the slim set of Season 2, and the first thing I did was open Disc 6, and put it in my DVD player - Anasazi IS INCLUDED on Disc 6.

X-Files Season 2 October 6, 2008
LuvtheElves (Rustbelt, USA)
It's great to have whole seasons on DVD- no commercials :) Still one of the best TV shows I've ever seen.
 Missing Episode September 28, 2008
blr (San Antonio, TX)
I've read here that only Amazon.com sold or still sells the season with the last episode missing, I just want to let people know that I bought this season at Best Buy a couple months ago and the season finale is missing. I was very frustrated. I am going to take it back next week and exchange it. I am going to have them put the new 6th disc in a dvd player to make sure it contains the final episode. Great season, though!
Good Season, No Missing Episodes September 19, 2008
Galak_Fyyar_the_First (Nar Shaddaa, US)
My review is simple. I just received my copy of this season and "Anasazi" the episode that many claim is missing, is included on Disc 6 and plays without difficulty. For any non-fans out there, I will put in my two cents and say that The X-Files is a good show and as most of the reviews below state, this is a pretty good season. If you're looking for great science-fiction, here it is, just make sure to start with the first season (as if that wasn't obvious anyway).
