I hunted these down from used dvd stores. 📀
Hi guys. Someone just posted on FB TXF group a list of Williams in TXF. That prompted me to ask, does anyone know why so many characters in TXF were called Maggie? I'm called Maggie, so it's quite interesting to me in a personal level. Here's a quick list of characters that I remembered or found after quick search: Dana's mother: Maggie Scully Maggie Holvey in The Calusari daughter of the dr Waterstones (Scully's ex lover) was called Maggie. Maggie Lupin in ''The Goldberg variation' Teenage girl in 'Synopsis' is called Maggie. I'm sure there was more but I can't find it now. And I definitely can't find the answer why. I'm curious is it just coincidence, or is there any interesting reason? Anyone know? Feel free to add more Maggies' if you remember any others from TXF.
So, as a '90s kid, I recently jumped on The X-Files bandwagon, and let me tell you, Scully and Mulder have me hooked!
Even though I ended up going the English major route and digging it, I can't shake off this thought: what if I'd discovered The X-Files way back when?
Back in my teens, I was all about science. Sure, I'm not as gutsy as Scully when it comes to autopsies, but I could totally picture myself in a lab coat. While I'm cool with where I'm at career-wise, binge-watching this show has got me thinking. Anybody else ever wonder about the paths not taken?
Any of y'all see this?
She just had to take a shot at MSR / DD & GA, didn't she?
It kind of perturbed me, not so much that she said it, but that she said it without explaining.
Has this ever been a theory? I just started watching the series for the first time again since it originally aired. I never missed an episode. But that's 20 years ago. So some of it is still vague. But watching it, I'm picking up things I missed the first time. Why would I think she's his daughter. And not only that but a plant. She's working with dad. Mulder is always so close to the truth. Dana is always there, slowing him down. Every theory of his she has the cookie cutter "scientific" response. Swamp gas? Really Skully? Second, no matter what she witnessed. Ghost, to aliens to gender swaping and elastic men. She acts like she still doesn't believe. To always try to slow Mulder down. Third, she has the fakest "shocked face" when she does get surprised or see something. Like she's seen it or heard about it before. Like cancer man. And being a man high up, wouldn't the cancer man volunteer his daughter for an abduction/impregnation by whoever he's working for? That was a theory about what the men who knew what was going on did, wasn't it? This could all have been debated before, and I do not know. So I apologize if it has been. Maybe she was an unwilling plant. Her dad wasn't her real dad. In the episode where he died, maybe that was the message we never heard. That her life was planned out. She was groomed to be activated anytime an agent wouldn't let things go and kept digging. Shed be sent in to hinder. His assignment was to raise her with a female agent, but he developed actual fatherly love. He was trying to warn her or let her know. Assigned by her real dad, cancer man.
Mulder and Skully are ordering pizza for dinner, whats their order?
Ssssssqqqqueeeeeeze…
(I never know what flair to add, but it humoured me)
Guys, Hell Bunny do a ‘Mulder Dress’
And it’s adorable. I’ve ordered it. Coz it’s cute. Just in case any of you lovely lot wanna have a look as well 🤣
Just my opinion…
Why do you think the show never did an outright Halloween episode? This seems a missed opportunity to play with the tropes of the festival (pumpkins, jack-o-lanterns, evil trick-or-treaters!)
You can argue that "Ghost in the Machine" is a Halloween episode - it takes place during Halloween, and there are some barely discernible Halloween decorations in the background - but it doesn't really feel like it. Nor does "Sanguinarium", which contains a few references to witches and All Hallows' Day.
Maybe Chris Carter thought that an outright Halloween episode was unnecessary. After all, most of the early seasons already feel like they're set during Fall, and the damp days of October.
I’m not trying to justify the quality of S10 and S11 by the way!
I just wonder how bad would it have been to have Gillian just have her blonde hair vs the red hair wig that aged it so much and looked hella fake.
I get that Scully’s red hair is iconic, mainly just cuz Scully is an iconic queen, but I would have rather have her blonde than wearing that awful wig.
Thoughts? 🫣
Like what the hell lol
Is William >!immortal (like his mother)!<? If he is >!immortal, are we supposed to think it's because Scully is too!<?
I know you lot will understand my happiness today. I received a parcel with a t-shirt I bought weeks ago, and I'm a one chuffed lass 😍
Doggett became my favourite character few months back, when I watched season 8 and 9 for the first time, and I can't get over him missing from season 10 and 11 soooo much, that I can't force myself to watch them. I'm literally grieving on how they did my boy dirty. I know there were scheduling issues, but still. To not even mention Johnno? Scandalous! :) For now I'm comforting myself by watching seasons 8 and 9 on a loop every night.
I'm taking John to a social gathering this evening, to fish for fellow xPhiles - Wish me luck!
Or was it Luis Cardinal?
The two Syndicate hit men operated as a team. We never see Krycek pull the trigger.
Of course, this question may be academic & not really matter in the big picture. Mulder would have still hated Krycek for aiding & abetting.
