"The X-Files" has been on hiatus for over a decade, but it's finally back and we've been sinking our teeth into the six-episode event already under way this week.

We'll be discussing the new and improved adventures of agents Mulder and Scully with the awesome addition of actor Joel McHale and the completely new and mind-blowing plot twists series creator Chris Carter dropped on us right out of the gate.

Warning: There will definitely be some spoilers from the first two episodes, which you can stream via Hulu if you aren't caught up.
