The X-Files is one of the most elegantly simple TV shows ever made Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Mulder (David Duchovny) in the very early days of The X-Files. This is the beauty of The X-Files, which was, among other things, a weekly horror film, an occasional comedy, a metaphorical examination of America's sins in the 20th century, an ode to paranoia, and one of the best TV shows ever made.Īnd now it's coming back. Everyone else you meet is probably a monster trying to kill you. In the world of The X-Files, you are only useful to institutions - whether public or private - as cannon fodder.

In The X-Files, you are only useful to institutions as cannon fodder. Ostensibly on the trail of evidence that the government has been collaborating with aliens, the two discover a gigantic catacomb full of file cabinets. In the second episode of season three, "Paper Clip," FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully - whose job is to travel the country, investigating cases with a tinge of the paranormal - find themselves in a massive, seemingly abandoned government facility. No, the scariest moment on The X-Files involved a room full of files. It didn't even feature the fluke/human hybrid, lurking in the sewers, crawling up through your toilet to. Nor did it involve aliens casually abducting humans and experimenting on them. The scariest moment on The X-Files didn't involve the worm that made people lash out violently at each other.
