In my opinion, this is the first episode in which I heard the name Stephen King.
Can you tell me which episodes he is still the author of the script?

It's the same doll at the end, only slightly browned. Scully and the sheriff apparently banally threw her back into the sea. Who does this to dangerous artifacts? :D

Personally, I found the series very boring. I barely finished it. But showing how Mulder spends his weekends delivered. An empty refrigerator and nothing to do, I can relate to this. Without Scully and working on the X-files, he has no life)

Mulder in this episode is something with something, I yelled at him well:
- Scully
- Yes
- Marry me
- I was hoping for a lot of help.

- Good morning, sweetheart
- Mulder?
- I was a little worried about you, I thought you might need my help.

The moment with pencils at the end is the best, and perfectly describes what I do instead of important things, probably many saw themselves in Mulder :D

@crackedmind: everything is fine. The autistic girl fit in one hundred percent. The loser guy, of course, is not disclosed, but this also has its own charm, because the introductory data about him was given. The rest is a matter of imagination, as always in art.

The little girl was infuriating just unrealistically much. It was only because of her that the series got a two (for the first time in 5 seasons). It's necessary to make such a filthy character

Yes, Scully only dreams of peace. Let her rest like a human being, without any devilry and secret materials. Stephen King in the screenwriters - it made me very happy. Mulder, who has nothing to do, is an invaluable sight.

Unfortunately, there's not much left of Stephen King- Chris Carter chopped up the script. For example, I decided to separate Fox and Scully.

I remember this series from my childhood, since then I was afraid of porcelain dolls and always put them face down in a corner. I
didn't even know Stephen King had a hand in this series, but I respect it, it's decent and cool.
Despite the fact that I remember this episode by heart since childhood and was terribly afraid of it, it was one of my favorite episodes.

Well, I don't know, it's scary, yes, but somehow it has an unpleasant aftertaste. The episode didn't take my breath away, the episode with the talking tattoo is more mystically scary, in my opinion. Unpleasant characters, why make a girl so crazy and manipulative of her mother, why couldn't the mother take the doll away and burn it, like Scully, I don't believe there hasn't been a suitable moment in so many years, where did the second doll come from, and how many more are there? The episode took out, as always, jokes and moments between Mulder and Scully.

The girl pissed off through the screen. Everything is blamed on her mother, but it turns out to be about her and the doll, and she didn't give a shit that people were dying, she was a selfish little thing.🤬
Poor Scully is not allowed to rest normally (And Mulder made her laugh in this episode, a person does not know how to rest at all))
And those creepy songs, uh, always scare me.🤪

I liked the series, although I can't stand dolls. The girl famously played a small infuriating creature.
Initially, the episode was somewhat subtly reminiscent of King's "Duma Key" and King in general, especially the state of Maine, and only after watching it did I read that Stephen King had a hand in the script.

Scully took the book "Affirmation for women who do too much" on vacation. Non-existent in reality, but the name clearly hints that the heroine is going to sort out her life, where there is only work and worries. The picture is really creepy on the cover, but it probably has something to do with the plot of the series just (witches etc.).

I do not even know what else to add to the comments. Charming series ) The look on Mulder's face as he listened to Scully recite occult artifacts.. and how he offered to marry him)) How she resisted working, but it didn't work out) By the way, it was nice to see Scully in a T-shirt and in a more relaxed atmosphere at least a little. A bored Mulder who doesn't know how to relax or cook 😂
The plot itself couldn't be more creepy, the girl played it perfectly, she was so infuriating that it was creepy, it's not surprising that the mother was ready to burn everyone along with the doll. And it's interesting that Scully saw mysticism with her own eyes, but she didn't admit it to Mulder. Stubborn skeptic )

Yeah, the makeup, of course, was skimped on in this series. No nail scars, just smeared with red watercolor of the face and it will do. But otherwise it's normal, the doll is creepy) Well, yes, King's hand is felt, I would like more episodes from him.

I usually don't like episodes where only one of the agents is investigating (they complement each other), and even more so where only Scully (Mulder is more fun), but this one is an exception.

It's not a bad series, although it goes more into a comedic direction.
Among the advantages: beautiful views of Maine, characters quite bright in terms of charisma, the dynamics of the series.
Of the minuses: Mulder is exposed as some kind of clumsy clown (more than usual), the creep game of the local Sheriff (it is clear that such an image of the character, but confused) and bloody scenes are depicted a little cardboard.
I remember for a long time the phrase dolls "I want to PLAY"
