The X-Files - The complete seasons 1-9

September 15, 2005 11:30 AM EST | TV Show | Email to Friend

Before praising this series and set to the heavens, I want to begin with a complaint. Although this set comes with some of the finest special features I've ever seen with a box set (the set lacks only the X-Files movie to be complete), it remains, like all of the individual seasons of THE X-Files, hideously overpriced. The moralist in me reacts to the kind of gouging that takes place in sets like this. There is very little reason to price any single season of this or most other series any higher than around $60 list (so that discount outlets like Amazon would sell it for around $40), and for all nine seasons of THE X-Files any price above around $360 discounted is completely unjustifiable, even with all the extras. I feel I ought to dock this set a star simply because of the outrageous pricing, but won't only because of my overall regard for the show. I consider the current discounted price of well over $600 to be a complete moral outrage. The content gets the five stars, not the pricing, which is simply atrocious. But you can always save money by buying used sets.
