The is the ultimate Millennium episode: Jose Chung (from one of the best X Files episodes, appears as an author who writes about "Selfosophy" (a movement with many similarities to another Hollywood celebrity movement whose members include Tom Cruise and John Travolta). Charles Nelson Reilly plays Chung, a writer who claims his story-spinning powers rival the profiling skills of Frank Black. And this episode contains several of Chung's (and others) dramatized theories, which are hilarious, including one with a blonde Lance Henriksen. Even David Duchovny appears on posters in the Selfosophy offices. This is a really funny episode which mocks many subjects and I had almost forgotten about. Most of the Millennium episodes are very dark with a seriousness that bordered on self-parody. Well, this is the episode where the show lets off steam and plays it for laughs.
