I'd say that Babylon was the only episode that I absolutely hated. Well and of course the finale was a bit of a mess too, but I really enjoyed the first three episodes. Actually I've noticed that these days the general consensus seems to be that the Darin Morgan episode was the only one worth watching, but on first airing even the premiere saw a huge number of fans being pleasantly surprised and saying that it felt like old times/the critics didn't know what they were talking about. And most fans liked Home Again and Founders Mutation as well at the time, although obviously they weren't absolute classic episodes by any means, but I did think that they were pretty solid cases. Babylon and the finale just seemed to sour the entire revival for a lot of fans unfortunately. For me though there were still enough positives there that I'm very happy to be getting some more episodes. Especially with ten episodes as well, so hopefully there will be a bigger mix of different writers and some great MotW's with Mulder and Scully, I think that we all got a bit burnt out by CC at the end of that run XD
