Been here before? Skip straight to the episode
guide which at the moment contains season
one and the beginnings of season two.
I absolutely adore the X-Files. That should become perfectly clear. I remember
when it first came out, and I saw the commercials, and I was completely unmoved.
But then, as fate would have it, at a sleepover at my friend Andrea's house, we
all sorta were in the moody for creepy, and as the bulk of her movies collection is
Disney, we decided to watch this show that we had all kinda heard about. The
episode was "Darkness Falls." If the name doesn't mean anything to you, it's the
episode where Mulder and Scully are out in the woods, and some bad logging men
have been cutting down really old trees and all these little buggy things are let
loose and they are everywhere, and they don't like light, but the generators is running
out of fuel, and when they swarm they make these cocoons and then you die.
Suffice to say, eeeeek, and not to mention eeeeewwwwww! I'm pretty sure we
slept with a light on in the next room.
I was (am) hooked. I endeavored for years to tape them all, and I have 33
tapes full to prove it. Hee hee. But then they invented something called the
DVD and it was good. Oh, yes. It was *very* good.
I plan to do more with this page when I have the time, but in the
mean time, look at all of these pretty pictures of these pretty people.

If you want more pretty pictures, check out the link, and if you want
episode info, go to the
official page (which has the annoying habit of not loading a lot of the
time, I 'm just warning you) or Tiny Dancer's Episode Guide
which is fabulous. Correction- it was fabulous. Now it seems to be a commercial,
not private page, but it's still decent.

Episode Transcripts
Here's a short but sweet episode guide.
One, two, count 'em three interesting articles about Morgan and
Wong. Explains some cool stuff. Read.
X-Files Lists and
Statitics Awesome! This is what I would want my fansite to be if I had the
time. Somebody beat me to it.
Come on already! |
See how he's looking at her? That's what I label
a smushy face. |
From one of my favorite episodes, "Bad Blood".
Scully looking hot |
Mulder looking bored |
They have a lot to think about.
He's yummy.
So is she.
Don't they make a purdy couple?
| Hopefully coming soon will be more of my favorite X-Files quotes, some sort
of episode guide/review thing, and more stuff. At least that's the plan... |
 |
back to the page about stuff
I am attempting the ambitious, and I would like to do an episode guide of
sorts. It's rather rudimentary, and it is more to help you keep all the
episodes straight than to serve as a substitute for seeing the show. There are an assload of episodes,
so goodness knows when this will be completed. In the
meantime, however, enjoy what's there. Oh, and if I put *'s around the title
that means I especially like it, and I will point out in the "type of episode"
if the episode is important to the mythology and understanding what the hell
they're talking about, which becomes clear only a little at a time with much
left unresolved for long periods of time. Patience is a virtue! (If you know
me at all, that's mighty fine talk coming from me.)

Scully's hair right yet, but Mulder and Scully chemistry worked right away. Far
better than most pilot episodes.

not introduced by name.

are being flown, and naturally things go amok.
Ewwwwww!: There's some eye stuff that's gross.

think this does a good job of letting Scully and us all know that we don't
know what we're getting into.

Ewwwwww!: There's unpleasantness involving bile.
Eeeekkk!: Tooms' glowy eyes and creepy voice and tendency to rip out livers
with his bare hands and attack people in their homes.

the type of thing the show is so good at.

out shows the face of Ruby, his alien-abducted sister

little flashlights, a white wolf (I like wolves, OK?),a diving save by
Mulder of the little kid, the whole "is Samantha's abduction clouding
Mulder's judgement?" debate, and a visit to a biker bar
Mulder and Scully Moments: actually, there's more of an anti-moment when
Scully is unsupportive of Mulder's search for Samantha
Mulder's Theory for What's Causing All the Trouble: Aliens, and their pesky
abduction habits, again
Ewwwwww!: none to speak of
Eeeekkk!: it's a little creepy when the kid is watching the static and then

important and the freaky car has a mind of its own

Ewwwwww!: not much
Eeeekkk!: creepy ghost stuff, people being attacked by an invisible assailant, a bathtub

Thoughts: Creepy goodness=good episode. Some parts really freaked me out upon
first viewing. The actress who plays Lauren Kite was in the Northern Exposure
episode with James Marsters. I'm just that good at that game.
Quotes for Shadows
Ghost in the Machine
Ghost in the Machine: "Gilbert Ryle in his book The Concept of Mind
held that the 'Cartesian' tradition represents the human body as a purely
physical thing (the machine), and the human mind as a purely non-physical
thing (the ghost) somehow inhabiting the body and 'operating' it from
inside. 'The ghost in the machine' is his derisive title for this- as
Ryle argues- fundamentally misleading picture." from The Oxford Companion
to Philosophy. Also the name of an animé movie and an album of
The Police.

Mulder and Scully Moments: concern for each other's safety
Mulder's Theory for What's Causing All the Trouble: AI enacting self-preservation instinct (and then
going a little psycho)
Ewwwwww!: nothing much
Eeeekkk!: creepy psycho computer killing people and at times Halesque, parking garage death, elevator
death, electrocution, crawling in air ducts with the wind
Thoughts: Believable enough to have made me think twice before getting
into an elevator. The theme is not especially original (Twilight Zone, The
Outer Limits, Star Trek) but I like how they do it.
Quotes for Ghost in the Machine
Ice

Opening Credits: normal
Type of Episode: alien life form, tense quarantine situation

Mulder's Theory for What's Causing All the Trouble: Ice cores from a crashed meteor crater have
unearthed a (single celled) alien life form that's a parasite
Ewwwwww!: infections by an alien parasite aren't pleasant, in general
Eeeekkk!: little worms things crawling into your ear (a la some Star Trek movie, #2, I think)
and scary paranoid people turning on each other
Thoughts: The thought of worms crawling into my ears has always freaked me
out, ever since I saw Star Trek 2 (it was 2, right? with Kirk's son?) and this
episode brought that fear back. Icky worms. *shudder* Umm, it's good, but I'll
stay in the temperate zone, thank you.
Quotes for Ice
Space

space stuff and being all gushy when meeting his hero

Mulder's Theory for What's Causing All the Trouble: something from space is
possesing Col. Belt.
Ewwwwww!: not really
Eeeekkk!: creepy ghost face that fights with his normal face, and zooms at people
causing car crashes, and throwing yourself out a window is a sucky way to die

crash landed, and an alien is being hunted
Ewwwwww!: radiation burns, and bleeding out of ears
Eeeekkk!: invisible thing moves fast and kills with a blinding flash
Thoughts: A good episode, but in general I am less enthused about the
mythology episodes, because I think from their very nature they are harder to
like, because they aren't made to be liked, per se. Does that make any sense?
Quotes for Fallen Angel
Eve
Eve: The name of the girls created during Cold War eugenics experiments was Eve
(and the boys Adam, duh)
Opening Credits: normal

that there are clones
Ewwwwww!: nothin' much
Eeeekkk!: the dead body, the kidnapping during the thunderstorm, the insane asylum, and the
remorseless homicidal children
Thoughts: I'm thinking Chris Carter feels the same way about kids as I do,

'em, but the cute mini-family thang is quite yay!

and it's Scully who believe he has the power to channel
Ewwwwww!: nada
Eeeekkk!: visions of her dead father, the people being abducted and tortured, freaky channeling,
visions coming true, seeing the gas form

Smack that bitch upside the head, Scully, and let him know who's right.

sexes and some run amok
Ewwwwww!: not much
Eeeekkk!: getting circled in the woods by the Kindred, the Kindred waiting outside for them,
the chase
Thoughts: Tee hee. Funny. Creepy. I like. I ignore the plotholes. It's
easier to do with the X-Files, somehow, because you learn not to expect
everything to be resolved, so the 'wait, that makes no kind of sense' moments
just sort of slip on by. Oh, are we not supposed to notice that it's
Krycek? I guess they were impressed enough to hire him.
Quotes for Genderbender

care.
Quotes for Lazarus

behind (ew! not like that! sicko), coming after Scully in her home with the chant music playing

right, because are you easily able to recall the episode I'm talking about?

carrying a crashed UFO and its occupant to a secret government lab
Ewwwwww!: not much
Eeeekkk!: not scary
Thoughts: Yay Lone Gunmen! Yay hometown stuff! Do we know what's going on?
No, only kinda sorta. Umm, do we like the episode anyway? Of course!
Quotes for E.B.E.
Miracle Man
Miracle Man: Samuel, the preacher's prodigy, performs miracles

swarmy bugs

dormant in a tree woke up hungry when the tree was cut down

still ripping out livers. Needs one more to complete his collection.
Ewwwwww!: the licking of fingers after picking up a dead rodent, Tooms
covered in muck, the nest of bile, and Tooms covered in bile
Eeeekkk!: basically, anytime Tooms is onscreen, especially with the glowy
eyes. Highlights include trying to come up through the toilet, being
in the trunk, unscrewing the grate, making himself bleed in Mulder's
apartment, screams of terror from victim, and the attack in the
bilenest

Mulder and the viewers can't retain that info, or apply it to what
we've already seen to understand the conspiracy.
