...while there's no Cigarette Smoking Man, and the Lone Gunman dweebs weren't invited to the reunion, Mulder and Scully must be heartened by the brief return of [spoiler alert!] their old boss Skinner (Mitch Pileggi). Just as important is the film's location in the Great White North. The first five seasons of The X Files were shot in British Columbia, which was a good fit for a show that wanted to leave its fans with a chill.

...transformed by a charismatic young leader. (Everyone is watching Jackie Kennedy on TV giving tours of the White House.) It sounds timely, given the Obama candidacy, but in Don's world, Camelot is less about hope than about anxiety, not a magic kingdom but an invading force. Even the return of space hero John Glenn annoys Don's boss, Roger Sterling (John Slattery), a WW II vet. "I'd like ticker tape for pulling out of my driveway and going around the block three times," he grumbles. "It's not like people were shooting...
