So, with hundreds of hours of content and endless fan documentation, is it all that surprising that, on top of the weirdness happening on-screen, some very unusual things also happened behind the scenes of The X-Files?
And since the show basically invented the concept of internet fandoms, every single detail is recorded right here on the web. There's a deep, sprawling mythology, memorable characters, and mountains of monster-of-the-week episodes that you thankfully didn't have to watch any of the other 217 episodes to understand. But later the feds spend a lot of time trying to shut the X-Files down, so why did they bother in the first place? It's complicated!Īnyway, across 11 television seasons, two feature films, books, comics, and who knows what else, Mulder and Scully have sought the truth behind aliens, monsters, and basically anything you could even remotely classify as unusual. Decades of these files were piled up by the government, then given over to the duo.
(Okay, there was Twin Peaks, too, but that one was super weird and it's not even clear if the word "paranormal" covers everything going on in that show.) On The X-Files, FBI Special Agents Fox Mulder ( David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) investigated the strange stuff that the rest of the FBI wouldn't touch, the show's titular X-Files.

While there are now dozens, maybe hundreds, of TV shows, movies, books, and even video games featuring government agents investigating paranormal phenomena, in the 90s, there was only one: The X-Files.
