Trivia:
Peter Boyle's character, Clyde Bruckman, has the same name as a famous Hollywood writer and director of the 20's, 30's and 40's who fell on hard times and committed suicide in 1955. more
Goofs:
Continuity: Bruckman begins describing his own death and he says he sees himself lying naked in a field of red tulips. The shot then fades into a scene of Bruckman's body. However, he's not naked; he's wearing a white T-shirt. more
Quotes:
Clyde Bruckman: You'll find the woman tomorrow morning, by the fat little white Nazi stormtrooper at Glen View Lake. Her body is floating at Glen View Lake. Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I've seen enough death for one night.

My Favorite X Files Episode, 13 December 2006
10/10
Author: ramblnroxy from United States

Peter Boyle died today. That's really all I have to say, but this website requires that I put a certain amount of words, so I will try to fill it up. This was my favorite episode, because I can't imagine having the gift, or curse that Clyde Bruckman had, plus the fact that he acted it out very well. It really touched my heart on the issues of mortality. To fill in more information, I must also say his performance in "Young Frankinstein", was absolutely fantastic, and I recently appreciated his good humor on Mind Of Mencia. I watched him on Everybody Love Raymond occasionally, and I found him to be, probably the funniest part of the show.
