This book is packed full with information on inconsistinces, science problems, the author's best lines, and tables of : How many times Mulder is jeopardy, How many times Scully is in jeopardy, and How many people die in a season. I loved it! This book is a must have for Die-hard X-Philes!

This book is simple yet fantastic. It has loads of facts, quotes and nitpicks without being predictable or samey. There are also interesting tables showing number of people dying per episode and so on. The layout gives the book an extra dimension too, being not too cramped and distinctive. This is only for the first couple of series, but any real fan should get it anyway. And if you're not yet an X-Files convert, you will be after reading this.

Great book. Tells about the characters ,people who play them, plans for the future, and much more. Keeps tabs on what hapens and has great qoutes and facts. Only, its a little too picky.

A thoroughly well researched book. I found a few of the nit-picks a bit too trivial for my liking, but on the whole I found this book to be well worth the reading time.

One inaccuracy I did find was when the author mentioned that a computer can't turn itself on when the phone rings (this happened to Scully in "Ghost In The Machine"). I guess he's never heard of a PC with wake-on-ring.
