As the third season begins, Mulder is missing and assumed dead... although Scully experiences a vision in which he is still alive. Yet even as they are reunited, each must deal with an additional personal loss, tragedies that ultimately serve to strengthen their connection to each other. And they soon find themselves depending on that strength as familiar foes resurface and preconceived notions are shattered.

This season of The X-Files kicks off not too long after the events of the previous season with Mulder trying to survive and Scully trying to cope with everything that is going on in her life. The first episode I have always found to be irritating, annoying and I feel like switching it off, but luckily there is better to come so it's worth sticking it out for the better episodes. As with the previous seasons, keep a close eye on all the actors as some in minor roles and some in major will eventually turn into the big stars that we know them as today, such as Jack Black.
We're starting to get some of the tension here between Mulder and Scully, with one episode that I rather enjoyed (purely for the reactions from Scully towards Mulder and Bambi) in "War of the Coprophages". "Hell Money" is one of the least paranormal episodes of the season but still sticks, in my mind, as one of the creepier episodes perhaps because I can easily imagine such a game existing in the real world... "Avatar" is another standout episode for me as it is a Skinner-centric episode and we get to learn a bit more about the man who somehow keeps Mulder in his job.
The acting is only getting better, though there are some actors who perhaps could have done with some more practice but that can be said for any show, really. I still have to laugh at Mulder now and again as he looks rather in pain at times even though that is not how he should be feeling... The series is fast improving and I can't wait to start off in season four and re-watch where they head to next.
