The X-Files: The Rain King (1999)
Season 6, Episode 8
6/10
Watchable, but so full of wtf.

First off, as a Kansas resident, the sights of mountains abound truly made me giggle. It's Kansas. We have exactly zero mountains. And barely any hills. The episode starts off well enough, with the guy getting his 'just desserts' being beaned over the head with heart shaped hail, but from there, it just turns into something not really X-Files like. Feel good episodes have their place and all, but this was overkill, I thought. A little too cheesy for the general feel of the show itself, and seemed to have been a filler episode more than anything. Tying the relationship between Fox and Dana into the episode was probably its only saving grace and garnered a few chuckles.

5.8/10
