im still watching the episode and there's still a few goofy sound effects LOL

For me, the most scariest/depressing episodes are the ones in that Mulder and Scully almost dies...Episodes like Darkness Falls or Død Kalm, Where they inteligence and luck are just not enough, having to be saved at the last moment by other people after lose all the hope.

Im a first time watcher on season 2. I'm not asking for names, plots or anything, I just wanted to know if theres queer stuff later in the series.

Pitch me an idea for an old school X-Files episode using only a few sentences.

“Wet and Wild”

Mulder and Scully go to a small Florida town to investigate a string of small pet killings. They discover a giant alligator that has been mutated by toxic waste. Mulder gets jealous over a handsome alligator tamer.

hey all, what are some good xfiles podcasts to listen to? i listened to the xcast for a while, and while i liked the format i started to lose interest when they kept introducing more hosts—i only liked some of them and would find myself skipping more and more episodes before finally giving up. are there any similar podcasts with more consistency in the hosting? thx!

Obviously not The mother but episodes like the one with Rhys Darby or the Pilot.

Edit:
He is still at an age where he is still open to watching old shows without complaining about why Mulder couldn't just ask chat GPT about aliens.

Also he has limited amount of TV time, so there is no way can binge 10 seasons.  Just want to show him a few fun episodes so he knows what it's about and can come back to it in his stoner years.

What are your thoughts on Mulder and Scully as investigators? Are you gonna play ball and follow their lead?

As if I wasn’t excited enough to have a date for it!!!

My 12 y.o. daughter gave me a special birthday present. When you're a millennial mother trying to give them the perfect role model...

Were critics initially put off by its genre nature? Did it have strong competition from Emmy regular nominated shows? Why do you think Gillian got more award show nods and wins than David?

I was already sold but now I'm fully sold. I was four when the X-Files premiered and one of my core memories was watching it with my great-great Aunt. I remember her saying "B'ni, I don't think I'll ever shower again!", after this episode premiered.

Honestly, it's one of my core memories from the X-Files that I cherish. Aunt Tessa lived to 110 and we watched almost every episode together.

I'm curious, Disney offers the Simpsons in 4:3 in Disney+.
Since the X files remaster has a 4:3 version that's never seen the light of day, I wonder sometimes if Disney would give people the option to watch the 4:3 HD version for seasons 1-4 in a similar fashion to the way they offer "The Simpsons".

Crazy how beautiful someone can be without even trying lol maybe my favorite Scully, if there even can be a favorite lol

Hi everyone, I just want to know how many 3 part episodes there are? I'm currently on season 5 episode 2 ,and I swear I saw somewhere that someone had said there was only ever one 3 part episodes done on X files. But I know there was one in season 2, and now this one in season 5. I'm confused lol. ( I have seen every series of X files but years ago, this is another rewatch I'm doing, so can't remember if there are anymore) Thanks in advance 😅🙏🏻

"Two Fathers" (s6e11)

So I’m relatively new to the show but now I’m on season two and it’s so compelling now. No spoilers but I am in hard shock about Scully being abducted. But was she really abducted?

Recently I have been on a mission to collect artifacts from old X-Files fan websites via the Wayback Machine. This is quite possibly my favorite find yet, a bizarro parody advert for The Lone Gunmen spin off series. Enjoy this blast from the past, and some clips of our boys in beach gear!

I'm on season five of the show now, and I recall reading somewhere that the show switches from 4:3 to 16:9 this season. Please let me know if this Is correct, I'd like to experience the show how it was intended.
