Pilot nigga. They were testing out looks for the characters. Also note Scully's long, flowing hair, which would soon after become the iconic bob we know and love today.

Recently watched seasons 1-8.

Mulder is a fucking cunt, holy fuuuck, and a gary stu. Is there anything he can't do?

He's not a great actor, no, but the show still fell apart without the Mulder character.

>>80132625
It's funny how insanely popular and beloved the X-Files is even though the 2 main actors are terrible. 90% of the time they just speak in a monotone voice, almost Ben Stein tier acting.

Should I watch this show?

Dale Cooper as a reoccurring character on the X-Files would have been almost too awesome

Yeah. Lots of episodes are skippable though, someone got an info graphic?

>>80132625

Hands down the best episode is the one where it's shown from other people's POV and Mulder is described as a faulty mandroid incapable of showing emotion.

Was the recent reboot any good?

>>80132907
Yeah like the first 4-5 seasons. Then you need an infographic. They never conclude the main story line, even in movies and the reboot. It's maddening.

>>80133503
It was a different time.

>>80133475
Right, I guess that's a better word.
I just figured 14 years after the last season it would be considered "over", and starting again would be a reboot

>>80133017
The infographic is shit - I don't know why you're all so obsessed with skipping episodes of shows. Even if they don't drive the mythology forwards, there's still plenty to the characters of Mulder and Scully in MOTW episodes - even their relationships with other characters.

>>80133425
Because Caitlyn was a top-tier athlete for most of his life, whereas Duchovny is an effete actor whose only "macho" characteristic was his sex-addiction? Also the age difference.

It's not like Duchovny's famous for playing manly men, anon.

>>80133503
>>80133526
It was a wonderful time.

>>80133578
Also, if you really can't stand to watch the MOTW episodes for the monsters then I don't see how X-Files is the show for you.

When it first aired I remember me and my friends actually disliking most of the mythos episodes because we didn't give a shit about aliens. But we didn't skip the damn episodes.

>>80133578
>I don't know why you're all so obsessed with skipping episodes of shows
probably because people don't want to waste their time watching the generally agreed upon trash episodes?

This, but it's mostly the age. Trans Bruce back in the late 70's might have been passable as an attractive woman.

Watching the entire series from dvd is one of my favorite show experiences ever.

>>80133503
He didn't really rape them he just .... uhhh implanted pig semen inside them.

Ok, yeah that's not great either.

>>80133746
The episodes on the infrographi aren't gneerally agreed upon - some autist sat down and made it based on what he thinks, there's no common consensus on most episodes.

You should 'grin and bear' through the standard decent episodes of The X Files, or any show for that matter, and form your own opinion, rather than only watching the episodes someone else enjoyed.

>>80134034
This.

If you end up really disliking an episode then do what I do and either do something else while watching it(in case it gets better) or just skip it. Don't fucking go after what someone autistic enough to make a list thinks.

They're mostly 1080x720 but some exceptions are 1920x1080 (for example the Pilot which is where those two are from) so I'm sure they are from the Blu-ray but the original author had not gotten around to getting the images from all the Blu-ray copies. Starting with season 2, you can see by the logo that they were captured from German HD TV.

Even just a few years earlier in the 80s there's a steep drop off of continuing cultural relevance. You see very few people on /tv/ making posts about how they want to start watching Dallas.

1987 was the pinnacle of 'cultural relevance'.

>>80135400
It's worth it for the lewd Scully scene.

>>80135403
Disagree. The image quality and level of technology of the 80s separates it from the current era. The X-files has a look about it that is not disconcerting to a modern viewer.

Even if you go back and scan television shows or movies made in the 70s and 80s and present them high definition there will still look dated due to the photographic processes involved. The X-files was made in the years when television film started to look very, very good and the color timing is more similar to (and inspired a lot) what is seen now.

American Psycho is a meme on /tv/, in the general populace it's mostly forgotten.

>>80135727
I wasn't referring to the media-viewing technology.

But I'm sure given a little more time this stuff will see a major resurgence in public interest. I can almost see the same happening to King Kong.

It's kind of weird, I love X-Files so much that I almost don't even like coming in these threads. I don't want to risk /tv/ trying to ruin my favorite show for me.

The journey is phenomenal though.

I had such a crush on Scully back then. I'm all blushing when I remember all the times I fapped thinking of her.

>>80137163
I have this recurring fantasy that I somehow ended up in the early 90s and romanced Gillian Anderson.

Then I imagine an alternate "X" Files where super-young Mulder and Scully regularly have sex and it's some kind of hard-R film.

>>80137163
It took 23 years for Scully to show us her bra again. Sad times.

>>80132370
Prove anything?

7th March is when they head to Oregon. They meet before this in your pic related.

March 7: Next day, they arrive in Oregon.
