Yaaay.
I WANT TO BELIEVE in viewer figures…
Seriously, am I missing something?
I LOVED that show!
IT IS SO AWESOME TO SEE RANDOM XF HERE!!!!
XD
LOOOOOOVE THAT SHOW
And this is when the nerd in me says that they did resolve their sexual tensions, albeit, off camera. XD Fox was her baby’s daddy. :O
But lols @ the caption.
I was gonna say. NERD STREET CRED REPRESENT
how bout heres to fail
the show that is not this.
Who knew Mulder drank Shiner Bock…
No, Fox was not her baby’s daddy and they didn’t have sex until the very last few episodes. She wanted to have a baby so she tried to have one via in-vitro fertilization and asked Fox to be the sperm donor but that one didn’t take.
After Duchovny left the show and Fox mysteriously disappeared she then mysteriously turned up preggers. The baby’s true daddy was never revealed. They never had sex until he came back to the show just before it went off air.
/Bigger nerd!
*ahem*
The true baby daddy WAS revealed, in the most recent movie, when they were in bed doin’ it. Well, ok they didn’t show them doin’ it, but it was definitely implied. And they kissed. And stuff.
/BIGGEST NERD!
*sigh* Meaning, they talked about the kid as “theirs”.
Also, ‘all things’ begins with Scully getting up from being in bed with Mulder and…come on, with all that sexual tension, you think they weren’t gettin’ it on?
Also, on the very last episode Mulder was asked about what was he thinking about and he replied… ‘(I’m thinking) About my son … about his mother.’
And later Scully refers to William as ‘THEIR’ son.
Like charro said, they also refered him as THEIR son on IWTB.
And they totally did it on ‘All Things’… maybe even before it.
/nerd out!
and she named him william after Mulder’s dad (and Fox[y] Mulder’s middle name)…because it was mos def his baby.
William is also the name of Scully’s day and her older brother who is in the navy
dad*
I have never seen x files but from the way you described this it makes me think of another show…. bones anyone?
Bones wants a baby and she might use Booth’s sperm.
also there is a whole lota unresolved sexual tension there- lets just hope they show us what happens before it goes off air.
but then again I never really wanted Booth and Bones to get together. I hope Buffy comes in Booth admits he is a vampire and he runs off with Buffy then Spike can get with Bones… haha, I would love that.
Wow. Really?
David Boreanaz has said multiple times that the relationship between Booth and Brennan is inspired by the X-Files. Also, in the pilot, while trying to convince Brennan to work with him, he says “we’ll be Mulder and Scully!” to which she, naturally, replies “I don’t know what that means”.
That’s because “Bones” is a complete rip-off of “X-Files”. Or should I say it’s just a wannabe? I don’t think that there has ever been a relationship on television or in movies that is quite as beautiful, complex, and unique as the relationship between Mulder and Scully.
If you were a nerd at all you would know that no sex occurred between Mulder and Scully in the “very last few episodes”, considering how Mulder didn’t come back until the FINAL episode of the series, “The Truth Part I and II”. They were in bed together at the very end of “The Truth Part II”, but they were doing nothing but cuddling.
William was conceived towards the end of Season 7 after a failed IVF attempt with Mulder’s sperm. There’s an episode called “All Things” that shows Scully getting dressed in Mulder’s bathroom one morning, and shows Mulder asleep in the bed, presumably undressed. They had always been close to each other, but from what I gathered, Scully was upset about failing to conceive via IVF, so Mulder decided to comfort her.
Also, Scully decided to name her baby after Mulder’s father, they share a deep kiss in the last episode of Season 8, with William in Mulder’s arms, they constantly refer to William as “their son”, etc. All of the evidence points towards Mulder being the father of William.
Besides, it would be very unfair to the viewers (as well as David and Gillian) to have seven years of not only sexual tension between them, but deep love and respect as well, only to have Scully get pregnant with some other man’s baby.
Bingo. “All Things” implies a sexual relationship. Gillian Anderson wrote the episode and even admitted that Chris Carter told her to take that direction to imply an off-camera intimacy because it would later play out in Scully’s pregnancy it was a direct set-up because Mulder WAS the father of the baby. That’s straight from the horse’s mouth.
So . . . cheers to the best show in the history of television! *clink*
I always loved the Christmas episode where they visit the haunted house, finally get out, and exchange presents.
Me too! That was the first episode I ever saw…
(Too young, only saw XF repeated on the old people channel)
The incest family episode (Home) still creeps me out. And I can never get enough of ‘Jose Chung’s From Outer Space’ and ‘Post Modern Prometheus’.
And hurray for ‘X-Cops’.
I don’t think I could be more excited that you just mentioned ‘Post Modern Prometheus’ because that is probably my favorite episode. Yay for Cher!
And ‘X-Cops’…where would we be without ‘X-Cops’? And ‘First Person Shooter’ and ‘Bad Blood’ and ‘Je Souhaite’…
Awww….I love Jose Chung and Post-Modern Prometheus too.
Home is my favorite episode. Everytime I hear the song “Wonderful, Wonderful”, I can’t help but smile and get the heebeejeebees at the same time. LOL
Also, Scully saying “Baaah raaaam Eeewwww” is PRICELESS!
Home is creepy, but my creep-out episode? ‘Our Town.’
I love the episode Eve, though- one of my personal favorite episodes.
What a shmoopy caption — and yet it warmed the very cockles of my heart. I loved the X-files dearly, unresolved/resolved sexual tension, Scully missing the aliens and all.
*sniff*

I still record every episode syfy shows, and faithfully watch every single one, even if I’ve seen it so many times I can say it line for line.
Don’t forget about “Humbug,” that is my all-time fave!!! And the one with the old man from Everybody Loves Raymond, “Clyde Bruckman’s Final Repose,” that one is brilliant!
Ahhh, The X-Files… there has been nothing as good on TV since, methinks.
“Humbug” is my favourite too! My favourite TV-shows are Carnivàle and Twin Peaks (and the X-Files of course), so I was so happy that Michael J. Anderson was in the episode…
I can’t believe I forgot the name of that episode, humbug was great! And the How the Ghosts Stole Christmas… I remember the first time I watched it, I realized the corpses had the same clothes before Scully did XD
I just recently discovered the X-Files and am now on the 3rd season. Confused about the whole baby thing (spoiler I’m not supposed to know about yet, I’m guessing). But seriously, how long did fans have to wait for them to get together?
Well, aside from a few teaser kisses around seasons 5-7…they didn’t really get together until the very end of the ninth season. And since the last two seasons are generally slow going if you don’t like the new agents, you’ve probably got a while until you get there.
I hated ‘Requiem’ and S8 with a passion. CC can bite me.
Yeah, I hated Requiem and season 8, too. I tried to erase those from my memory..
I SO miss Mulder and Scully but I am very happy that the fanbase is still alive. So you can still chat with some people and worship the past times…:) It was such a great time… the thrilling cliffhanger, the speculations on the web… brilliant. We’ll never have that time back.
I started watching the X Files when I was eleven! So, “Too young” is not an argument.
I was only 7 when X Files started. That theme was creepy as all hell to a 7 year old. Plus the general running theme of aliens and paranormal activity = no way in hell I was watching it. It’s not until I was older that I learned to appreciate how brilliant the show was. So “too young” can be a valid argument….only “some” 7 year olds can be cooler than others. Me not so much. =P
I agree!
When I was little the theme song and the credits were creepy. The ‘invisible’ guy/ghost on it, scared me LOL
I watched since I was a toddler- every Friday night (before Fox moved it to Sunday -grumble) we would get around the TV and watch the same episode. It’s entrenched in my brain FOREVER.
I’m glad the fanbase is alive too, although it does wax and wane A LOT.
Ah, good old X-Files days… You guys remembered a lot of great eps, bot forgot about Milagro. That teaser with the writer ripping his heart off his chest? Frakking awesome (ops, frak is from another fandom
)
Loved to see a cap from all things, one of my favorite XF epis ever, along with Memento Mori, Post Modern Prometheus, How the Ghosts Stole Christmas….
I really need an X-Files marathon now!
Oh, I doubt anyone forgot about Milagro…great episode!
I see an X-Files marathon in my future as well.
Obviously I meant “but” not “bot”. LOL.
I thought the actors who portrayed Scully and Mulder didn’t get along very well in real life…? Just a rumor, maybe? Let me know, XF fans!
It was kind of on and off over the seasons. Especially toward the end the two weren’t getting along so great because Gillian was far underpaid compared to David. However, their on-screen chemistry would not have worked too well if they hated each other, and there was a fair chemistry between them.
loved that show, can somebody remember me from which episode is the picture?
