Handlen and VanDerWerff examine what made this genre-bending show so groundbreaking. Witty and insightful reviews of every episode of the series-- and the two motion pictures-- leave no mystery unsolved and no monster unexplained. Included are exclusive interviews with some of the stars and screenwriters, as well as an original foreword by X-Files creator and showrunner Chris Carter. -- adapted from jacket.
