Let's address the alien in the room: The X-Files season 11 premiere was rough. In "My Struggle III," a theme that the series is desperately trying to get fans to love, Scully and Mulder tackled (or should I say, stumbled through) the impending alien DNA invasion arc, which ended in the pair's convenient decision to wait for their son William to find them rather than the other way around. Passivity has never been this duo's strong suit, so their inaction in the season 11 premiere seemed frustratingly out-of-character. Thankfully, though, season 11, episode 2 of The X-Files did not "struggle" with this problem. The second episode of the season, titled "This," playfully incorporates all of the elements that once made this show one of FOX's best as we follow Mulder and Scully on a hunt for a group of mysterious attackers.
