Hollywood actually thinks porn-addicted nerds are lonely by choice and could get laid if they stopped engrossing themselves in their nerd shit

he literally never succeded though and ruined everyones lives around him.
i love foxxy man.
>>
>>64038726
Seriously did he ever have sex or have a gf in the show? Such a sexless loser can't possibly be a gary stue.
>>
>>64038807
he got hit on lots. like in the bug episode.
>>
>>64038909
he wouldnt waste his seed on a common harlot.
>>
>>64038967
he'd probably be afraid of a temptress working on behalf of the govt pulling a julian assange and getting him jailed
>>
>>64038758
They are correct in that assumption.

that and he loves ging bush.

Yeah, I remember he have something with Diana Fowley, when she came up in season 5
>>
>>64039255
fans hated her so thats probably why she wasn't in the show long term.
>tfw we will never know why mulder was wearing a wedding ring in "travelers"
>>
>>64038652
Yup. I stopped watching after a few episodes because of how infallible he was. I'm sure he fucks up later on but it doesn't seem worth it.

I liked x files for a while but the two leads are the most boring, uncharismatic cunts in TV history

Nonsense.

He was simply extremely paranoid and avoided shit he didn't want to deal with.

Why is it "Gary Stu" to be like "fuck this, I'm out" when things get too weird to deal with?

He's the "NOPE" when everyone else is like "hey we should go investigate this."
>>
>>64038652
>paranoid neurotic
>Gary Stu

no
>>
>>64039373
but he was completely right to be paranoid

>>64039369
idk what you're talking about. when has mulder backed out of an investigation? he's the one that's constantly taking on new cases when scully says they aren't paranormal or they should be left to local authorities.
>>
>>64039369
the only thing that makes him a gary stue is the fact that he never gets fired despite never resolving any cases and the series explains why during S1
>>
>>64039311
He fucks up all the time, but the only fuckup here is you for taking X-Files seriously.
>>
>>64039416
xfiles is a serious show,pleb.
>>
>>64039407
He was right, but that doesn't change the fact he was a fucking weirdo that couldn't relate to people. He definitely wasn't a Gary Stu.
>>
>>64039411
They solve almost every case, the bureau just doesn't like his explanations.

But seriously why are you guys trying to nitpick X-Files? It's a monster of the week show senpai it's literally turn off your brain and have fun TV.
>>
>>64039407
>>64039411

I don't know, I don't typically watch most x-files episodes. I suppose I should. I tried to watch the first season and stopped because Scully was like "none of this shit is paranormal!"

Then I was thinking I didn't even care to watch it anymore because she dismissed everything as normal in spite of a mountain of evidence against her. She could have an alien shit on her head, a demon fuck her in the ass, and some gnome from some place steal all her belongings and somehow this was completely normal.
>>
>>64039513
she's like that throughout but it gets a lot less annoying and she goes along with mulder despite disagreeing
>>
>>64039513
I love me some X-Files, but that never changes and it blows my mind.

Eventually "there's a scientific explanation for this, Mulder!" gets replaced with "it's probably just secret government technology, Mulder!" even when she sees ghosts and demons and fucking ayys all first-hand.

>It's a mythology episode

I can't even watch the early ones, knowing what it all leads to.
>>
>>64039544

She's an incredibly annoying character. It's like "isn't this fiction?" Then she conveniently doesn't see anything paranormal and it's like "I didn't see shit mulder!"
>>

And it's a shame because Mythology episodes were so dank until S6.

Mulder > Scully.
Mytharc > Monster-Of-The-Week.
The series had a few hiccups but no season was objectively bad.

If you disagree with any of the above you should commit suicide.

wow you're literally 100% wrong

Never watched before, what do people mean by "mythology"? Just the overarching "main" story throughout the series?
>>

go back to reddit

Yes

>>64039467
Its really not,Its a smart show t.b.q.h but they wrote themselves into a corner many,many times.The explanation of mulder never getting fired from what i gathered is this..

>The Syndicate/Shadow Government doesn't want mulder fucking shit up so one of their plants in FBI assigns mulder to The X-Files (which was never taken seriously) and sent scully to spy on him

>They keep him around instead of labeling him a crazyman because he had shown amazing potential and i *assume* they probably eventually wanted to recuit him,just like his father,why they dont do it directly is beyond me

That is where it got tricky though,since his whole motivation was to find his sister they should've known that he would never work for them or share their ideals but you could argue that the influence of double agents like Deep Throat and Mr.X saved his ass and eventually skinner had a soft spot for him so he always had people looking out for him.
>>
>>64039789
Yes. And it turns to shit.
>>
>>64039407
Mulder backed out of virtually any investigation involving religion.
>>
>>64039815
You're taking the show more seriously than the writers. It's always been a fun show meant to draw from all over pop culture.

The main story turned into an incomprehensible clusterfuck no doubt, but I don't even know why you're bringing that up.

The actual reason for Mulder never being fired was that it was much easier to keep track of the crazy man when he's working there than if he was wandering around doing shit on his own.
>>
>>64039884
Thanks f.am.
>>
>>64039818
How? A lot of it made sense.

What happens with Mulder's sister seems a big oversight but I can't think of much wrong with the rest of the mythology.

Yeah the show was "fun" i guess but the writers were also really well read and obviously knew a shit load about scifi and history.
