In a recent chat, "The Lone Gunmen" writers Vince Gilligan, John Shiban, and Frank Spotnitz said that this episode would go a long way toward destroying Chris Carter's penchant for quality telvision. Boy, were they right! No, actually this episode was cute. Like the other episodes. However, again several jokes fell flat, and it didn't have as much seriousness as "Eine Kleine Frohike" or "Like Water For Octane," which would have helped it. There are still problems with this show, and I don't know if they are going to be fixed... Has "The Lone Gunmen" reached its potential? I'm thinking that way, but that doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to go on. As I've said, it is quite entertaining, but it also has a little heart that is missing from shows these days. That's the best thing about it.
