The "X-Downs" was a series that had what may have been the platonic ideal of a script TV show. With alternating episodes involving "Sunday Monster" and shows dealing with the series "Comprehensive Mythology of Conspiracy and Extra Image Activity, the series has also managed to be an episodic procedure of EC-UN, EC-off, genre anthology, and a series of saga constantly watching. Thus, longtime fans could feel that their investment is being paid while the new fans could jump on the boat for almost any moment during the original 9-season rock on the show.

The only damage to this almost perfect setting is the fact that it invites the possibility of as low points as he did. While certain parts of the random have their own general preferences for which the overall seasons were the best and that were not, even the most famous "X-Downs" fan will recognize their inclination to be uneven, with an episode gem that often lives next to the huge stench. Even this accepted truth has its own nuance, unlike a series of "Twin Peaks", whose fans have a solid consensus on which episodes are those that newcomers should avoid or continue with caution, choosing the worst "X-files "The episodes are much wider and subjective.

If you go strictly according to the numbers (According to IMDB), then the 18th episode of Season 3, titled "Teso Dos Bichos", is the worst episode of the worst X-Files. However, only the reasons why this episode is assigned to such a dubious honor should be considered to realize that it may not be strict for its quality. That, plus the existence of far more conceived and awkward episodes of the series, meaning "Teso Dos Bichos" can simply be a victim of a boom representative.

To be clear: "Teso Dos Bichos" is not a hidden gem at the episode of the "X-Data". Written by Johnon Siban and directed by Kim Manners, the show is the riff of Horor B-movie, with FBI Fox Mulder (David Spiritual) Related to connection to South America's artifact. The episode evokes several films produced in the 40s and 50s of Val Laton (So ​​much that Shiban names a character in the episode after him), the exotism/cursed subject paranoia of that era (as seen in The episode "Dusk Zone" entitled "Thinotal"), and even the "killer cat" hill from the 70's and 80's (such as "uncanny" and "disadvantaged"). In other words, it's a slim episode of the series; Strong fun at best, lazy trash at worst.

Although the episode would certainly never be a mark on the show, it for the most part got its filthy reputation thanks to how much the cast and crew opposed the episode. According to the book "Complete X-Data" by Matt Hurwitz and Chris Knowles, the episode was originally script to contain scenes of large groups of house cats that attack Mulder and Scules, but director Mannieri could not succeed in the cats of producing And to look threatening, let alone attack. That, added to the fact that Anderson has a bad allergy to cats, meant that manners could do so much with the final of the episode episode, and the constant prescribing of the episode during production did not make the rest of the shoot. none. In the end, all this plus the insincere final product made the cast and the crew declared Teso Dos Bichos their most hated episode and that attitude only spread to fans and, in the end, the IMDB ratings of the episode.

Again, if you only go by numbers, then the IMDB ratings of "Teso Dos Bichos"-Sito 5.9 out of 10 makes it look like an episode of the "X-files" you most want to skip. There is another episode of the show with the same correct rating of IMDBHowever, this is the one that is much more credited with the title "worst episode of X-files". This is the 20th episode of Season 7, titled "Fight Club".

Directed by Paul Shapiro and written by the creator of the series, Chris Carter, "Fight Club" sees Mulder and Sculi who explore a pair of twins of Dopelganger, who, when close to each other, cause a literal and figurative racus. While the concept has a certain promise, execution is one of the most inappropriate things you will ever see in your life. The episode was made at a time when the future and direction of the "X-Downs" were in the Flux Star Spiritual will leave the show early next season-and when the series began to rely on its notorious and popularity as irrelevant and self-conscious. While a good number of episodes of the series of the series are wonderful, Carter proves that there will simply be no comedy knife as a writer. Not helping things are the fact that Katie Griffin is a guest actor showing the twins; If you think her stick is wonderful, you may get a shot from the show, but for those who find it difficult to take, get ready to have double problems.

While the "combat club" has just as many, if not more than the right to claim to be the worst episode of "X-Data", there are several other episodes of Series '11 seasons (and two feature films) That others could nominate both in the "combat club" and "Teso Dos Bichos". Unfortunately, when it comes to "X-Data", you can't just trust the numbers to give them all the answers. The truth, as they say, is still there.
