Like An Old Friend

I purchased The X-Files seasons one and two not too long ago, and I've ben watching them recently. I hadn't really forgotten how good the show was, and to be honest, when it was bad in the early days, it was really, really bad.

I did actually get bothered when it was posited on the show in the episode "Squeeze" that Spooky Mulder got his nickname because of the X-Files. We find out later, of course, that that isn't true, but it feels true. I think...but I'm not sure, that he got his nickname by how well he was able to solve cases for the Violent Crimes section.

And Gillian Anderson! How cute was this woman! I mean, in the beginning, it hadn't boiled over into smokin' hot yet, but, it was well on its way...(And, not to offend any young Firefly watching mothers that might be reading this, but, she did get better looking after the baby, though I think this might have more to do with wardrobe than anything else, so don't take what I say here too seriously...I don't!)

I'm patiently waiting for the emergence of some of my favorites...The Lone Gunmen!

The Truth Is Out There!!!

(If you haven't seen The X-Files ((And, let's face it, Firefly has a young enough consistuency that that mighta actually be true)) I can't recommend it enough. Be warned, though...the first two seasons are a bit bumpy. There's more than enough good to hook your attention, but, there's plenty bad in there too. Just be patient. By season 3, 4, and 5, it's all smooth sailing...mostly)
