You go in thinking the best part of this episode is going to be Bruce Campbell, and actually it’s the Garbage song they keep playing.
Bruce Campbell’s character belongs to a line of comical sad-sack sex offenders that includes Eddie van Blundht in “Small Potatoes” and the monster in “The Post-Modern Prometheus.” I hope someone, somewhere, has written a grad thesis on this.
You’re 100% right about the best bit being the Garbage song, and also about “GOALS!”
Bruce Campbell AND Garbage! What’s not to love! 😀
I’ve only seen a handful of episodes of The X-Files. Until this strip posted, I had thought there were two episodes I distinctly remember watching, but it turns out there are three. (I don’t think MotW has gotten to the other two yet.)
Huh, I guess that’s a default image rather than one John (B). had deliberately chosen. OK, then.
The X-files revival adds to this list; it’s said to be a heavy factor in why the show is now permanently done. Entertainment Weekly deconstructs this type of X-files villain:

EW, hardly a thesis, but really, really mad. At the time it was said Gillian Anderson left over the material in s11. She says it was, well, nobody’s watching anymore. They’re both way up there as reasons.
