The Four Zombies of the Apocalypse

Mulder may often feel like a jerk, but Hungry kinda paints him as a predator playing with his food as he takes his sweet time doing anything about poor old Rob in this episode. If Mulder was a bit quicker than likely three people might still be alive...
Still, this is a monster-eyed view of The X-Files and pretty good. We get into the contrast to Terms of Endearment and how Rob might be a proto-Walter White all things considered. Not sure why people quibbled about finding out who the killer was so fast with this one...
Millennium is the second actual (if you count The Unusual Suspects) but intended third crossover into The X-Files. And comes courtesy of Chris Carter's other show that outside of one nod to The X-Files and an appearance by Jose Chung had trundled on quite happily without intersecting. It doesn't entirely work here and we get hung up on crossovers as a concept for quite some time.
But Sculder shippers win out! Here (after cuts, parallel universes/dreams and Mulder's inexplicable dream-marriage to Fowley) is the first kiss the pair get onscreen. At least Mulder wasn't cock-blocked by a bee this time.
