Summary: A must have for the true fans!
Review: I've never seen "The X-files" look and sound so good. It's a true match for the DVD format, crystal clear and the way it was meant to be seen. I know that "X-files" is kind of a passe trend, but the first season brings back all the wonderful memories of seeing it for the first time on TV, marveling at the special effects and original storylines. Every fan MUST have this collection.

Summary: Incredible Bargain but you get what you pay for.
Review: It was great to watch the whole season back to back, and 24 episodes for under 100 bucks is an undeniable bargain. However its very clear they had to make some sacrifices to fit 4 episodes per single sided, single layer disc. The video ranges from excellent to below VHS quality, exibiting almost every type of DVD video defect there is at one point or another. I also experienced some chops and jumps which I have not seen on any other DVD. The sound is excellent however. I recomend this to any X-files fan and I won't hesitate to buy season 2, but if you are a DVD videophile, prepare for some cringing.

Summary: From one Phile to another...
Review: When I began to watch The X-Files on Sundays, I started the habit of taping every episode. Or attempting to tape them, anyway. When these DVDs came out, I jumped at the chance to have the entire first season in my possession. My expectations were met and exceeded. I don't have cable. When they show reruns on Fox, they cut out scenes. For example: in the Pilot episode, they did not include the "Steven Spielberg" scene. So even though I was collecting the episodes, they were not the full show! The DVDs are fantastic. Any fan of the show or someone who's new to the series should get this!

Summary: Hours and Hours of X-Phile Bliss!
Review: The prospect of owning EVERY SINGLE EPISODE of the greatest television series of all time would be enough in itself to recommend this to anyone reading this review. But that's not all: This is a wonder of a DVD. First of all, it's generous. Four episodes per disk, and a bonus disk with all kinds of special goodies. Second, the images are crisper and clearer than any tapes you've seen. Third, the sound is so good, it's creepy. Finally, the first season is much better than I remembered it. If you are a fan and you don't have a DVD player, here's your excuse. If you are not sure if you're a fan, this should convince you. If you're a "Touched By an Angel" fan, skip it.

Summary: You've got to get it!
Review: I have lived in Korea since the X-Files first appeared and my work doesn't allow me the luxury of sitting in the living room and watching the X-Files each week, even though we do receive it on American Forces Television. I'm sure there are many others just like me who enjoy this type of entertainment but are just not available when it is on the tube. Copying from TV onto VHS leaves much to be desired. Imagine being able to watch this excellent series without commercial interuption and with the highest quality video and audio. If you buy this collection - that's what you will get. This set is so great that I have already pre-ordered the second season. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE and the truth is - this collection is great!

Summary: Ya quiero la segunda!
Review: El tener la primera temporada en DVD es genial para cualquier x-philo, que mas se puede pedir,... que salgan las otras. Es una de las mejores temporadas de expediente X, ver esos viejos capitulos clasicos en tan buena calidad no tiene precio, y lo mejor de todo subtitulados en español. Lo unico negativo son las imagenes extra, porque a quien le importa ver escenas de los capitulos en otros idiomas! , hubieran puesto entrevistas a los actores o un detras de camara, no se, cualquier cosa menos eso. En fin el hecho de estar los 24 capitulos justifica la compra. Ahora a esperar la segunda, esperemos que subtitulada tambien.

Summary: X-philes Dream come True!!
Review: This X-files 7 DVD Box set is an X-phile's dream come true! If it had included outtakes and more deleted scenes it would have been simply perfect but it still comes pretty close the way it is. The foldup case is unique and comes with a cool little booklet with a listing of every single episode.There is something very cool about owning the entire first season and there is about 4 episodes on 6 DVD's with the 7th one being full of extra's. You have never seen the show look so good on DVD and the sound is X-cellent! I wouldn't heistate as a X-files Fan to buy this set, beg for it or borrow it if you want to know what all the fuss is about. Despite it's lack of more extra's you are getting the entire first season, interviews with Chris Carter and the original TV promo's for each episode!! I gotta give this 5 stars and here's hoping Season 2 Box Set includes outtakes!

Summary: Let's face it. The X-Files is the best show ever!
Review: Early this year, one of my dreams came true. FOX (how's that?) decided to release the ENTIRE season 1 of The X-Files on DVD. I didn't own one by that time, but I just ran out of my house to get one. Well you would understand my excitement if you lived in Spain. Here, the show is literaly punished each season: the private network were it's shown, run the episodes in the order they want it to be and they have even reach the point of cutting scenes!!! Plus, they've never shown the first season since 1994!!! So, I love this DVD more than anything I've bought in my entire life and I just can't wait for the rest to be released... XD X-Files Forever!!

Summary: Almost Perfect
Review: We all know how great and brilliant the show itself is so I don't need to get into that. And of course, it's great to watch the episodes in digital format and be able to skip to any scene instantly, etc. Here are the drawbacks: the audio is in Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround, not the superior 5.1 surround (even the Star Trek: Original Series DVD's come in 5.1 Surround, and this show is from the 60's!) Also, there are only 2 deleted scenes, both involving Scully's would-be boyfriend, in the pilot...THAT's IT! There are no other deleted scenes nor outakes. Third, the seventh and last DVD has 10 and 20 second trailors for each of the episodes but it is tedious to sit down and watch each of these trailors one after the other. Instead, each of the trailors should have preceded the actual episodes or succeed the episode before (this is how it is actually done when you see the show and when you see the DVD's for Star Trek: Original Series). But then, that would leave Fox to find other things to fill the last DVD with :-). However, overall, it is still great to have this collection of X-Files and it takes up very little space (there are 4 episodes/DVD, unlike the Star Trek DVD's which have two episodes/DVD and take up five times as much space.
