Lord that music when she was walking down the hall. Sounded so...stock for early 90's police procedurals. Really static and not at all X-Files. Hard to explain, but it just doesn't belong with our heroes.
When you watch this first episode you learn Mulder is a psychologist, author, serial killer hunter prior to opening the X-Files section. He was once a highly, respectable agent. It also explains his brilliance throughout the series.
shouldn’t he have said: “nor do any of our specialists.” instead of “nor do i.”? or whatever his line was? why doesn’t scully mention this? why doesn’t she inquire more about the facts of the situation? she’s a newcomer to the case. also, fbi agents aren’t gods, they’re just people. what i’m trying to say is that mulder jumps pretty fast to conclusions. and scully is always the skeptical one, but never touches on the obvious breaches in his scenarios, only on the more plausible lines lf thought he has. @@Marcus-gw4bb
Just started watching the show, but being the show is pretty old and pretty famous, I know how this relationship ends up. For my money-mulder fell in love right then and there. I love watching it all for the first time thinking that Mulder is in love with her all this time. Now seven seasons of edging😭😭
I rewatched the series during COVID lockdowns. It took a while for the show to get it's legs underneath it, but it was easily one of the best series ever produced. You can really feel Vince Gilligan's influence when he joined the writing staff near the end of Season 2.
@@ThornySnailPictures VG eventually came to run the X-Files writers room, and both Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul guest starred during his tenure which is what made him think of them for Walter and Jesse.
@@artembaranov kind of. But not as much. Doesn't help that I'm already in my thirties. And Mulder was already an Oxford graduate AND an accomplished FBI criminal profiler before he hit 30.
All those late nights I remember watching parts of the X-files as my parents thought I was asleep in my room - when I was all the while sneakily catching the late night tv from the stairs - I loved the atmosphere and mystery, and how competent they seemed at figuring out how to solve the cases they encountered. Nowadays I think I take a similar open-minded approach to the world, with a curiosity for the inexplainable or as Mulder put it, "fantastical" when no other explanations seem to exist. One real-world category of missing person's cases in particular that is referred to as the 'Missing 411' is something you'd expect to have seen amidst an X-files series, yet it is a phenomena that is being documented in ongoing study by a few dedicated individuals, including the man who coined the category. They are all cases with similar characteristics in relationship to one another, in sequence of events, demographic, and locations with similar, if not identical geography. I wonder how Skully and Mulder would go about investigating it. Sometimes fiction only exists as fiction in description, or otherwise, a complete lack of description.
at one point i thought i was the one who wrote this comment. 😂because I've experienced the exact thing. my parents thought I was asleep in my room , but the truth is I was sneakily watching this series from the stairs while my sister who is allowed to stay up late, was watching it on tv.
In an effort to channel Scully I would put forth that almost 99 percent of the cases put forth by the missing 411 guy and his books can be explained as people that were caught in the wilderness unprepared. On a personal note i would further say the authors use of the tragedies of real people that have died in the national forests to push a story that there is something sinister going on in the national forests and that the parks department is in on it is straight up ghoulish and opportunistic. Hes a former big foot grifter whos riding the current popularity in missing person stories to make money and I find it morally repugnant.
@@MrDjordansmith If you understood the difference between the missing 411 cases and people who died due to inexperience in the wilderness, you wouldn't be revealing how little you've actually taken the time to review the circumstances presented in these cases.
@@Chris-cf2kp I have actually, my ex was obsessed with them and onwed several of the books which I read. Again while they are all very tragic stories 99 percent can be chalked up to getting lost and being unprepared. The last 1 percent are mysterious less In a supernatural way and more so in a why were they out there in the first place manner. Also if you look up and read about the cases you'll often find that the facts surrounding many of the cases are different than what the 411 books make them out to be in some cases failing all together to mention that the person's involved were actually found and still alive. All of which strain the credibility of the evidence put forth by the author.
X Files always had darker elements and stories, but Millennium was much darker. Unrelentingly grim. I never finished watching because I tried to binge it and got mired halfway through season 2.
This popped on my homepage today and wow, I had forgotten how beautiful Gillian was. I have the first couple of seasons on VHS, I should break them out and give them a watch sometime.
To think that they wanted to cast Pamela Anderson as Dana Scully because Fox wanted a hot, blonde, busty actress. Gillian fits the role perfectly. She’s beautiful, smart, sassy and has great chemistry with David (Mulder). It was a match made in heaven.
my heart at seeing this. My fave show and one of the best ever made. My childhood wrapped up in an era before the widespread internet, when conspiracy theories were peak.
I love how they have some differents thoughts, scully tries to use science to explain, and mulder more like paranormal. And in the end both respect each other

1:50 Funny. Those are simply peptide bonds of aminoacid (AA) chains like in peptides (100 AAs). Without knowing what the respective side chain (R) is, it is impossible to say of what kind of aminoacids the chain is made of, letting alone to tell what kind of peptide or protein it is. Scully was at least able to identify it as an organic molecule (what any highschool graduate should be capable of). Medical doctors aren't necessarily good in chemistry or biochemestry.
Until now I have only seen season 4, but until now I still remember that first meeting moment and the bond of Mulder and Scully I like the way it developed: for me, I felt it was not love at first sight, it was not a forced hatred either because they were opposites in their thinking, they were 2 people starting to trust each other. It's curious that Scully had already heard about Mulder, but when they met they didn't think about everything she would experience.
Two great quotes that show the effortlessly great writing on this show. 1 Sorry nobody down here but the FBI’s most unwanted 2 That’s why they put the eye in FBI Superb
This is my favourite tv series ever! I can't believe how long ago this was. At the time, my mates took to calling me "Mulder" because one of my nicknames was very similar sounding and I absolutely loved this programme.
Scully would see totally unexplainable phenomena week after week, yet every time in the subsequent episode, she would always tell Mulder there must be a logical explanation 😂
If Scully and Mulder had not been assigned to each other, they would not have grown like that and had so many adventures. Who assigned them together did all of us a great favour

greatest female in the screen
That’s so funny you say that because when I was a kid I spent an entire year referring to myself as Dana Scully because I wanted to be like her.
I wanted to be like Mulder so I could hang out with Scully
proof that you can make strong, intelligent woman as a main character without the need to push the political and feminist agenda
And then they ruined her character in season 10-11, esp 11, worst garbage ever.

1 Sorry nobody down here but the FBI’s most unwanted
2 That’s why they put the eye in FBI
Superb
This is my favourite tv series ever! I can't believe how long ago this was. At the time, my mates took to calling me "Mulder" because one of my nicknames was very similar sounding and I absolutely loved this programme.
What I find 'fantastic' is any notion that their are answers beyond the relms of science.
Scully was awsome from the start.
i need to watch this again, never understood the show as a kid
Ah those were the days. Long summer nights watching The X-Files and Babylon 5 for hours on end.
i think its time to rewatch this gem
As a biochemist, that molecule is a protein, but the R groups (the most important part!) are not described!
Interestingly, these characters would meet again in subsequent episodes.
Let's face it: since the very begining the creators of the serie developed Scully to be a sort of Clarice Starling.
What an incredibly beautiful woman she is.
And he's an incredibly beautiful man.....💜
Scully would see totally unexplainable phenomena week after week, yet every time in the subsequent episode, she would always tell Mulder there must be a logical explanation 😂
*This is like the prettiest Watson meeting the least self-confident Holmes.*
Yeah! I want to watch series all over again. 👍👍
Ugh. This almost makes me want to rewatch it again.
best duo since Tom and Jerry
The way he talks, I can still hear Hank Moody.
I can't.
Good first meeting between scully and Mulder
If Scully and Mulder had not been assigned to each other, they would not have grown like that and had so many adventures. Who assigned them together did all of us a great favour
Iconic scene.
Circa 2023 - Actually bought the complete X files blu ray set, on season 3 at the moment.
(Next is Stargate SG -1 no blu ray yet In Australia.)
