Quote:I believe it's only through season 6 that you need to watch. Some of the best tv ever made. Watch some of it tonight.


Although there is a main story arc throughout the series, a lot of the episodes are stand-alone episodes meaning you don't have to watch in order.


I would suggest 'the host' from season 2 as a example of a great episode.

 

1 through 4 were really the high point of the series as a concept.  5 and 6 were good in spots although the mythology had really started to fall apart by then.  Season 7 even had some good moments but it had pretty clearly jumped the shark somewhere there.  Season 9 was starting to get the mojo back although they had to reboot (i.e. super soldiers, new FBI agents) but by then people weren't buying it.  I'll still be watching the resurrected series although I'm trying to keep expectations low.
