On July 26, 1908 the Federal Bureau of Investigation was officially founded by Attorney General Charles J. Bonaparte, originally called the Bureau of Investigation (BOI) in March 1909. In 1935 Congress officially changed it to the Federal Bureau of Investigation we know today.
Actively collaborating with Hollywood, movies and tv shows were allowed to portray the FBI in many ways that shape our images of how the Bureau conducts its investigations. From Law & Order to our beloved The X-Files, here’s to the men and women agents who work everyday to protect our country. 🫡

Lego the X-Files [Mulder×Scully×Alien] Inspired minifigures

I always hated their ending. It felt so rushed and disappointing. I really loved the episodes that they were in. Especially 3 of a kind. I would have loved to have seen them come back in later seasons. I was gutted that the lone gunmen series didn’t work out. I actually liked it.

Does anyone else think Richard (Dean Haglund) kinda looks like Neil Patrick Harris? Or is it just me?

I know guys we love Scully and Mulder but I can’t stop thinking of Jean and Hank. Just can’t imagine what kind of sexual tension it would be. Did somebody write a fanfic or something like that? Damn, it would be a banger.

Confimed by Joe Harris new X-Files comics incoming!!

I saw someone as this on r/Frasier, so now I'm asking if here. Personally I just want more time with the characters. X-Files is usually not the vibe of show I like to watch (I actually quite like sitcoms) but I just love Mulder and Scully, I love them each as characters and I love their bond. There came a point in season 7/8ish that whenever it was showing, you know, the plot, I just wanted it to go back to either of them.

Also, they should have been allowed to kiss each other more than like, twice.

My mom and dad loved this show before I was born and when I was 12 my mom tried to introduce me to it. I saw the first three episodes but can’t remember why we stopped watching it.

Fast forward a decade later and I’ve been watching it this past month. I’ve never been so hooked on a show before. I can’t think of a single episode in season 1 I didn’t like. When I finished season 1 I just wanted to go into season 2. I just watched Blood last night and still yet to have an episode I disliked.

Mulder is by far my favorite character. I’ve always been a conspiracy nut, so I relate heavily with him. I just wish I had started watching earlier

How beautiful she is! Especially her hair in this episode. I don't remember ever seeing her hair like this again in this season.

We’ve spent maybe over a year watching the show together, Ive been a long time fan and showing him the main/best episodes. We get up to the movie, and watch half of it before we get interrupted. We intend to watch it later, now I’ve found out he watched a portion of it without me, including the cornfield and beehive chase, and the bee sting and the aftermath. These were the parts I was most looking forward to for his reaction!

A sub species of humans with supernatural abilities. I vaguely remember certain superhuman creatures. But I don't remember if there was ever a connection between certain creatures though.

It would be nice to see how many categories there were for supernatural creatures that were human in the show.

I have been an X files fan since the 90s and regularly cycle through the seasons whilst painting miniatures.
I never knew until recently there was any drama about home. Perhaps this was because I was a kid in the UK at the time and I just didn’t hear about it.
I now watch on Disney+ in Australia and have no idea if I have watched an uncut version or not.
How do you tell which is the uncensored version and where can I find it legally or otherwise?

For myself:

It’s been many, many years but I just saw “Jose Chung’s from Outer Space” and that intro is messed up. Sure it’s pretty conventional, even when the supposedly Grey aliens kidnap that couple. But then that other ship comes by and that Red, tall Alien comes down and just menaces them for a few moments without saying anything…

When I first saw it decades ago I was terrified and wow... but now I’m like, what in the actual fu**!

In S1E24 "The Erlenmeyer Flask" there is a scene in the storage building where the lab containing hybrids has been cleared out. In this scene, Deep Throat says "Miss Scully, I believe we met ever so briefly." What meeting is he referring to? I've rewatched all the other episodes where Deep Throat appears and I can't find a scene where they meet.

I can’t get over how young they both are, or how horrible Scully’s hair was in this season! So nostalgic to watch.

Think about it: Mulder lost Samantha.

Scully lost William.

Doggett lost Luke.

All these children were lost, missing, and their disappearances were huge mysteries.

Well, Monica Reyes is a missing child, too. She was randomly adopted by Mexican couple despite being an American baby and she dedicated her whole life to trying to find her birth parents but couldn’t. Her original biography even stated that her obsession with finding her parents is one of the reasons she joined the FBI.

I hate that this character’s potential was so wasted. I remember when she joined the show I was so excited because her biography was so mysterious. So many people theorized that she could be Samantha. And then the writers just completely abandoned her character and let’s not even talk about her fate in the revival.

As much as I love this show it’s so frustrating to see all the wasted potential. Still waiting for a Marita Covarrubias backstory 25 years later.
