Gingers have no souls, which is why the aliens don't want her.

Oh man.

Back in the olden days when people still had to use modems to access the information superhighway and what you did when you wanted to see sexy pictures was scrape them off of terrible usenet newsgroups using automated uuencode decoder software and then organize them in folders on your hard drive, I did that with Gillian Anderson pics.

Don't judge me. This is a safe space.

Since I never delete anything (why bother, hard drives just double in size every couple years), here you go. I swear I had not plumbed this corner of my archives for years but this thread reminded me.

There might be one or two fakes in here, I dunno

Crow Jane: Oct 18, 2012; nothin' wrong with a lady drinkin' alone in her room

It's still a good show, as long as you stick to the standalone monster-of-the-week episodes. They hold up fine. The ongoing conspiracy stuff always bored me, and I don't imagine it aged very well.

Scully's hair and clothes in the first couple seasons are 90's hideous

X-Files is more of a 90s Time Capsule than anything else.

Fart.Bleed.Repeat.: Sep 29, 2001

Just got a mail from amazon that i can get the whole series for like $60 so thats pretty relevant

# ? Nov 12, 2014 16:12

mind the walrus: Sep 22, 2006

I mean I appreciate X-Files as someone who didn't watch it in the 90s, especially as someone who likes all the genre fiction it influenced, but it seems really loving quaint in a post-9/11 America no joke :911:

The fact that David Duchovny is just as hot today as he was when I was a girl makes me happy in a way I can't describe in polite company :unsmith:

Also the idea of FEMA being used to help alien colonization was legit scary before Katrina disproved the notion of FEMA ever helping any refugees

Kuato: Feb 25, 2005; "I CAN'T BELIEVE I ATE THE WHOLE THING"; Buglord

Its relevant to SA, because we have the weekly thread about it. Someone should revive the Agent Cooper thread or start a tradition of weekly Twin Peaks threads imho, considering its revival its especially relevant in 2014 imho.

Man I watched the COPS/X-files crossover episode a few days ago and it was really good. So I'd confidentially say that Scully is hot.

I watched x-files when i was a little kid in the 90s and it was pretty loving scary to kid me. pretty good show.

I like John Doggett. That one episode where some dude is actually becoming the terminator and he's all like, "That only happens in the movies", with a smirk on his face.
