10/10
The Man with a Golden lighter.
31 July 2022
The coin is flipped, and this episode focuses on one of the show's main villains, Cancer Man. Here, we get an insight into his character, his past and presence, it's almost an origin story.

It's a hugely impressive episode, it has so much going on, even has a few different styles, and even manages to make you question what you think and think you know about Cancer Man, you could perhaps come away from this feeling a degree of sympathy for him. We learn just how powerful a man he is.

I can't help but wonder if this episode was written specifically to give Duchovny and Anderson a few days off.

The first segment, the one about JFK had the most time, and it was the best of them, supreme storytelling. The others were good, that first part was just captivating.

I'm watching this show properly for the first time, is series four considered one of the best spells? This is yet another classic, 10/10.
