[edit]

Why has this been edited and made worse, not to mention completely wrong!

Most of these episode descriptions are wrong.

I fixed some of them, but it still need some fine-tuning

Everything From Young at heart to Born Again, with the exeption of TOOMS is Wrong

I edited the episode "Tooms" a couple days ago to represent a true synopsis of the episode - will do the rest when I have time... (actually - re: previous comment - Roland is wrong as well) 82.32.201.125 18:23, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"Young at Heart" and "Miracle Man" fixed.... 82.32.201.125 18:23, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"Darkness Falls" fixed.... Aswc 17:16, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please Fix!

[edit]

While deleting some stuff I accidently screwed up the second half of the table. Don't know how to fix this, could anyone assist? Quiddity99 (talk) 13:02, 4 April 2009 (UTC)Quiddity99[reply]

Miracle Man redirect

[edit]

I'm trying to create an article for Miracle Man, but there's a redirect that takes the reader straight to this page. I can't actually get into the page to edit it. Can someone help with this please? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Euchrid (talk • contribs) 01:23, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Casting

The article is in good shape but I'd have expected there to be more evaluation of its themes and concepts.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:11, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Have added a section covering this, but let me know if you think there needs to be more meat to it. GRAPPLE X 14:07, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A possibility would be to merge the writing section into the themes and concepts section. What I want really is to see more exploration of the subject matter in the series and issues which crop up. I think its need a good summary of common issues and what aspects of the paranormal are covered which may set a precedent for later series and plots etc. What you adde dis great and part of the way there but I just feel you need to highlight the aspects of the paranormal issues covered a bit better so the reader can get an effective summary of what the series is about overall without having to read the plots of the episodes and separate articles. Also what about actual filming. Is there anything on devices, filming locations and particular style of cinematograhy which were important?♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:44, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've added mention of several more of the episode plots, especially those which seemed noteworthy. I'm not sure what you're exactly wanting in terms of "exploration of the subject matter" - the first season is very light on recurring elements so aside from the premise itself (mentioned in "Concept and themes") and individual plots (mentioned in several sections), I'm not sure what you think it could do with. As for filming, there's some information about locations in the "Development" heading, but since so many of the episodes featured different specific locations I didn't list anything beyond "Vancouver and the surrounding area" - do you think I should include examples of the locations used for specific episodes? GRAPPLE X 15:54, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, a few brief sentences on that would be great. Sorry, I hope you don't think I'm being picky, but I hope you can sort of see what I mean, it is an article on the series which in my opinion should contain info even if briefly on things like settings etc. I guess what I'm asking for is for something like. The episodes xxxx share common themes with the subject of alien abduction and presence. ON the other hand episodes such as xxx range from hibernating monsters to pyrotechnically enhanced individuals, a scope of the paranormal which would broaden in later series.. The Cancer Man, introduced in episode xxxx would later being instrumental in series xxx, the Lone Gunmen who first appear in episode xxx . In episode we are introduced to the fact theat Mulder's sister was purportedly abducted by aliens which would become an important on going storryline in later series as Mulder seeks to learn "the truth". I dunno, that was just something very rough but just that sort of thing, some sort of series summary.. Do you see what I mean?

Article is looking much improved now, great, a brief few sentences highlighting common filming locations.scenery in the Vancouver area perhaps and maybe something brief as suggested above it sure looks fit for a pass! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:40, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
