Psych - The Complete Second Season: The first season was great. I really wish I had the home network available up here, because this would be must-see.
X-Files: Revelations: Designed to prepare us for the next movie, this includes "Pilot," "Beyond The Sea," "The Host," "Clude Bruckman's Final Repose," "Memento Mori," "Post Modern Prometheus," "Bad Blood," and "Milagro." I strongly suspect this has less to do with actually preparing for the movie, which is designed to be a stand-alone "monster of the week" style, and more to do with releasing the best episodes of the series not already released in one of the other collections, as well as "Milagro" for no apparant reason.
Finally, the pick of the week. I've got to go with the "X-Files" set. I've always been a fan of the show, as some readers may remember. (Heck, the first columns I wrote were X-Files reviews way back in the fall of 2000.) I wasn't too thrilled with "Milagro," but the rest of the episodes in this set are fantastic. For those who don't recognize the episode titles, here's a rundown:
Pilot - The first episode, mostly useful for introducing the characters.
Beyond The Sea - Don S. Davis, Scully's father, passes away. Weird timing on that one, but still a great episode.
The Host - The "Flukeman" episode, from the second season.
Clude Bruckman's Final Repose - Starring Peter Boyle as the psychic who could see how people were going to die. The second attempt at a comedic episode, and one of the most successful. Highly, highly entertaining, and emmy award winning.
Memento Mori - The episode that reveals Scully's cancer in detail, following "Leonard Betts."
Post Modern Prometheus - The black and white episode and the first broadcast in widescreen. Entertaining, beautifully filmed, and very funny. Excellent episode, and one of the best of the series.
Bad Blood - The "Rashomon"-esque vampire episode, with one of the greatest teasers in the series, in which Mulder stakes a boy in the woods, convinced he's a vampire, only to have Scully remove the plastic fangs from his corpse.
Milagro - Mulder's new neighbour writes crimes that keep happening.
