>It's a Scully gets jealous of another woman with Mulder episode
Every fucking time. Last episode I watched was the one with the wolf.
>>65136902
Whoa, just watched that episode and is what made me post this. Sp00ky.
>>65137347
Why does it always seem that when we watch The X-Files, some spooky /x/ stuff goes on and SYNCHRONICITY kicks in?
Is it meme magic?
>It's Season 9 and Doggett or Reyes are lying in a hospital bed in critical condition AGAIN episode
>>65137598
/tv/ truly is a magical place.
>>65138059This isn't a Scully thread, right?_
>It's a Scully ages like fine wine episode
>it's a Mulder's previous love interest who looks like Scully but is way better than Scully appears and is never mentioned ever again episode
>gets jealous
>shipped harder on and off-screen
>they never married
JUST
>>65138093
I didn't say that. So anyway, I'm on season 6 and just watched the old, supposedly extinct wolf shapeshifter episode, but the show's quality has been dropping the past few episodes and I've read it gets pretty bad. When does it become unwatchable?
>>65138351
Don't know, I'm watching for the first time.
>>65138224
What episode? Who is this?
>>65138351
7 has a lot of bad episodes, but watch it if you like Mulder since it's his last full season with Scully
>>65136902
Are you talking about the one where the tranforming wolfman mails himself from Africa? That one's pretty bad in my opinion although...
>it's a Duchovny can't be assed to act so the writers can't be assed to write episode
>>65137724
>any episode focusing on Reyes
>>65136842
>It's a Token Black Person's Issues episode
>>65138397
That's the fire episode from s1.
>>65138351
You're on the verge. Mulder goes away soon and the show becomes unwatchable pretty fast after that.
>>65138397

>>65138636
Thanks but I already did the digging a few minutes ago.
>>65138437
>2 seasons without Mulder
The fuck happened? How was this written into the story?
>>65138496
>Posting Anchovy in a Scully thread
Name a worse episode than The Field Where I Died or Moon
You can't.
>It's a Scully gets kidnapped episode
>>65138679
Duchovny lost interest in doing tv shows so he opted out of his contract, he still appeared in a few episodes after that but it was only for important Mytharc episodes
>>65138679
Mulder gets spooped away by the ayy lmaos. Duchovny was being a major dickass. He forced production to move to LA from Canada so he could live on the beach and kept demanding more money. He reappears at the assend of the series in an attempt to cobble together an ending. Also the Samantha plot line has a similarly bad ending a few seasons earlier, because the writers kept forgetting to make one.
My picture was to show off the worst episode in the series not ruin the waifu party :^(
>>65138695
I thought The Field Where I Died was pretty bad, but the episode where a bunch of cats attack in a museum was worse.
>It's a Scully loses her gun scene
>>65136902
The Indian wolfman ep? I'm literally watching that right now what the fuck?
>>65138782
Nah, they're talking about a later wolfman episode. But I watched the Indian Wolfman one today senpai.
>>65138754
I legitimately can't remember the episode you're talking about. TFWID always stuck out to me for heing so absurdly bad. When Mulder reads the gradeschool poetry or whatever, and Duchovny clearly just wants to go home.
>>65138695
>>65138754
the Vietnam vet episode, also the one with a prisoner who can walk through walls
>its a david duchovny is just here to collect a paycheck and isnt playing his character anymore or evn trying at all leaving the episodes empty and soulless
>airing starting jan 24!
>>65138828
Ah alright I just started the series a couple of weeks ago. Why did no one tell me it was so fun? Every thrread where I asked about no one would give me a straight recommendation. How are the next season's I'm on like episode 20

Teso Dos Bichos
I was thinking maybe it was just bad relative to how good most of season 3 was, but apparently the cast and crew hated it too.
>>65138836
Oh jesus, that is a bad one
>>65138838
Post S4 Mulder. Even the good episodes were full of Duchovny laziness.
>>65138867
It improves constantly up to peak season 5. 6 and 7 are watchable. Past there is a chore at best with a handful of good things tossed in.
>>65139000
Oh jesus christ i do remember that one. The fake cat.
>>65138782
It's a scully has cancer episode
>>65138867
I've been watching and I'm on season 6. Not every episode is great, but I thought most were and I didn't see a consistent drop in quality until season 5 or 6. Scully becomes more qt each season though.
>>65139001
Thats good to hear about the quality of the series, I just finished DS9, TOS, Twilight Zone, and TNG so a new long running sci Fi show was kind of perfect. Plus the NW comfiness is great, I'm from Vancouver so I recognized a few landmarks already
>it's a let's take turns feeding moulder's fish episode
>>65139052
I was gonna say, these gifs make her look great but she doesn't seem all that spectacular this season
>>65139078
Be prepared. The show's production moves out of canada when Duchovny goes full asshat. RIP foggy forests.
POO
IN YOUR LOO
>it's a something having anything to do with religion and all of a sudden scully is the one who will believe anything episode
>>65139165
:(
This show isn't as comfy as Twin Peaks but its pretty great, this new logger episode with weird crazy lightbugs is pretty cozy right now. Also that hacker/AI who made the AI that killed people in that office building had the coolest fucking house I've ever seen in TV other than maybe the house in Ex Machina
>>65139234
Beyond the Sea is one of my favorite episodes and has the strongest acting of the series.
>>65139206
That episode was pretty weak, but that fucking guy has to be one of the more memorable baddies from the entire show, almost up there with Tooms (and they were both good at sliding into cracks).
>it's a Scully and Mulder want to fuck each other but Scully has to stay professional and Mulder is too deep in the rabbit hole episode
>>65139364
>it's a directed by david nutter and you can't remember why that name sounds so familiar episode
>It's a Scully gets raped by aliens episode
>>65139458
he did some GoT episodes
Bad Blood is my favorite episode.
>>65139481
That's where I recognized his name from.
>It's a Mulder fights off a demon while chasing aliens but Scully still won't believe episode
>it's a "it must have been something i ate" episode
Is this show any good?
>>65139577
no, go back to where you came from
>>65139577
The show starts good and increases in quality until S5. S6 and S7 are decent. Everything after is borderline unwatchable. First movie is good, more recent movie is mediocre.
>>65139577
For the most part, yeah.
It has it's highs and lows, but for a show that lasted 9 seasons they got away with doing many, many bat-shit crazy ideas.
>>65139550
>it's a written by darin morgan episode

She was like 24 years old in the pilot episode...she wasn't old enough by season 9 to have "aged like fine wine".
>>65136842
I've been watching X-FIles, I'm up to season 7, the charm is sort of gone. Although I liked the Cops episode.
I got bored and stopped midway through the videogame one.
Is season 7 worth continuing?
Also the mythos a shit. It was cooler when I ddin't know as much.
>its a "Mulder just so happens to have almost century-old evidence on hand to help with a case" episode
>>65139903
I got to season 9 a week ago and just completely lost interest, after rewatching everything for the new "season".
Agree about the mythos. It gets more LOST as it progresses, like they were just making shit up each week without a plan and it eventually becomes apparent to everyone that there's no way to wrap everything up in an any way pretty manner.
>>65136902
>>65137347
Watched that episode yesterday, chums.
>>65139967
I felt gypped whenWe find out Mulder's sister was taken by star light and is a forest ghost.
Seemed like lazy writing and that if they really wanted to reveal were his sister was it should have been for the finale.
hey guys lets write an x files episode

They discuss the eerie similarities between the pilot episode and the attack on September 11, 2001, and Haglund also explains how he personally witnessed government agents working closely with X-Files Lone Gunman creator Chris Carter.
>>65140264
Oh yeah I forgot they were in a pedophiles backyard. Seems like the last place I would want to hang out.
who is this guy?
>>65140470
>shit we forgot to wrap up the samantha plotline, quick tack it on to this pedophile episode
>>65140556
In that ep parents were writing letters like "you shouldn't shoot at Santa" and then it turned out the Santa Clause guy was a serial killing pedo. Was he possessing parents or what.
Why were parents writing cryptic letters about Santa?
>it's an underrated waifu episode
>>65140520
IIRC it's the face of one of the guys who created the opening credits (some hired guns, not FOX themselves). I read a great article a few months ago where they talk about what each shot means and the how they created them, but I can't seem to find it right now. Sorry anon.
>>65140048
She became one of the fairies from True Blood and went to the magic fairy land out in the middle of a random field.
>>65138703
Today on 'villains' who did nothing wrong...
>>65140048
By far the biggest disappointment in the show. That was even worse for me than Mulder leaving, because the search for his sister was Mulder's entire ethos.
They butchered her storyline to hell and back, especially considering multiple non-hostile characters confirmed she was alive, and then when Carter thought the show was going to get cancelled he wrapped it up in that shitty episode.
>>65140704
>it's an underrated waifu episode
>Sometimes a revival leads to thoughts of regime change, and while watching “The X-Files,” it’s hard not to think of George Lucas, who handed off his “Star Wars” empire to a new generation of writers and directors — a move that injected the entire franchise with a much-needed spark of life and relevance. Given the “Phantom Menace”-level dialogue in the “X-Files” season premiere, which supplies action, exposition and explosions instead of intelligent meditations on the surveillance state or any other relevant topic, it might be time for Carter to bestow “The X-Files” on some of the men and women who grew up idolizing its finest episodes and arcs. A new corps of writers might know how to come up with something more politically and emotionally resonant than the kinds of stories that, in the new season, often amount to Mulder and Scully Mad Libs.
the first Mytharc episode is shit, the MOTW one is good

better not get too comfortable with mulder and scully because they willbe replaced with two new agents for a spin off after the mini series
Is the new series going to be on Netflix or old people TV?
>>65141080
Old people tv but hulu will have it.
>>65141062
Good, they're old and ugly now
>>65140082
I don't think I've ever seen an episode with that 3rd act.
Usually it's "We don't know for sure that thing I shot at and jumped 30ft was X, Mulder."
either that orI was drugged!
>first x files movie
>mulder rescues skully from a tank in an alien mothership
>they escape
>the mothership takes off
>scully doesn't see it
holy shit this pissed me off
>>65141062
Mulder will occasionally pop up as the Deep Throat/ X character of the new series but Scully will probably only make a cameo appearance once or twice over a few series before being forgotten and never mentioned as Anderson has an acting career outside of X-Files.
>it's a charles rocket episode
>>65141264
Probably the most underrated actor that went too soon.
>>65140815
That was always the case, only scanners actually enjoyed the omg aliens shit by the end of series 2. That arc was designed to run for 4 seasons at the most because that was the usual length a series got in the USA at the time. However when it became clear that the X-Files was so popular it was likely to have about 6 series Carter hastily had to spin the arc out for longer and circumstances like a randy crew member humping Anderson so much he impregnated her had to be accounted for so after season 1 the quality of storyline of the aliens episodes tended to drop. By the time the series was in its 10th season it was so spun out that even though the monster of the week episodes were still popular enough to keep the show on air a few more years (not as popular as its hayday but still better than a lot of other shows) Carter was board, the audience were board and the actors and crew were board. he decided to make the decision to put the show to bed before it died, while it still had some dignity.

nice thread. Currently rewatching every single episodes. A good rewatch for sure, and damn, I like the tone of the older episodes, they seem way more creepy.

So for all the things Cancer Man can influence why was getting published so sacred to him? I mean he would never be able to achieve fame and glory.Thomas Pynchon?
Also pic related.
>that epilogue
>>65143066
because he wanted control of his own world, writing was his only output
>>65143066
Regardless of how many conspiracies he was actually at the center of, he was a fan of those kinds of novels, and just wanted to get his own one published.
It was meant to humanize him, while being ironic as fuck at the end.
X Files wouldn't be the same without the outlandishly comical episodes.

Yes.
>>65143066
he was trying to get something out in the world an be recognized for what he's doing in some sort of way. if that meant writing his experiences down and label it as fiction so be it.
what destroyed him was that his story was nothing worth more than being re-edited and shortened to be published in a washed up magazine.
for the x-files world that means the truth will never come unmasked or unedited to the outside world.
>>65143763
Or was it
>>65143066
Because one, he loved reading, and also he wanted to make it as an author, it wouldnt mean anything to just have his work published through his connections, he would he would always know he didnt deserve to be published. Even though it was shown he could control nearly every facet of world events and pop culture if he wanted.

I smiled at seeing the glee on his face when he had been accepted. Something about such a ruthlessly cold and calculated figure suddenly showing emotion always makes me smile.
Do you think that, if he returns, he'll have quit smoking? People rarely smoke in tv now.
