Comments on: Season 3, Episode 23: Wetwired https://www.shaenon.com/monsteroftheweek/comic/12062013/ The Complete Cartoon X-Files Sun, 11 Jan 2026 06:19:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.0.1 By: GreyWolf https://www.shaenon.com/monsteroftheweek/comic/12062013/#comment-3404 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 11:36:27 +0000 http://www.shaenon.com/monsteroftheweek/2013/12/06/12062013/#comment-3404 I’m with Dave, my thoughts before the revelation of Mulder’s sight issues was that it was something along the lines of the old saying about not being able to con a con artist … in this case, you can’t really make a conspiracy theorist more paranoid than they already are.

Just finished season 3 and watching S4E01 as I am writing this … and here I had gotten used to watching an episode then reading the MotW recap before going to the next. Definitely wishing I had watched the series originally, can see what I was missing. In my defense I was kinda busy at the time since I didn’t get out of the Navy until the middle of season 5. 🙂

Uh … huh.

Not even “Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man”? Man, that one was sad. (Admittedly though, not really in the ‘he needs a hug’ way that Shaenon draws.) 🙂

He was just trying to get his Care Bear collection back, poor, lonely man!

Damn you!

Oh, and I want Frohike’s mug.
