"Home Again" was a heartbreakingly lovely episode, a showcase of Gillian Anderson's acting as well as the many layers and complicated emotional journey of Dana Scully.
I'm not sure any X-Files episode this season will match the poignant brilliance that was last week's "Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster," but "Home Again" was a solid follow-up.
If each of these new episodes seeks to continue the show's oldest traditions, I'm glad we were graced with one as sad as this one. It just felt right somehow.
Somebody showed up to do some acting today, and that person's name is Gillian Anderson... Anderson (never a disappointment) stays grounded, raw and real.
