my top 50 episodes of the x-files
Feb. 4th, 2012 02:29 pmWe had to revisit a challenge in ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
tvrealm, and I decided to do another top 50. This time, because I'm in a really nostalgic mood, I chose to do my favorite episodes of The X-Files.
WHY THE X-FILES? OTHER THAN THIS IS AN AWESOME SHOW? (AND I JUDGE YOU IF YOU CALL YOURSELF A SCIFI FAN AND YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED IT.) Because The X-Files was groundbreaking tv. It's inspired a lot of the great shows today, at least in part: Lost. Bones. Castle. Fringe. (Hell, everything JJ Abrams has done that isn't Star Trek, really.)
I just. This show. It's an amazing specimen of tv. It's my favorite show ever, and it will always live in the number one spot. At times it's funny, at times its sad, or beautiful, or silly, or dark, or scary, or just honest and true. It's a love story, a story of friendship. Of course it has its shitty episodes, like any show, but its amazing episodes are out of this world. The world of the paranormal is merely its setting, not its plot. It's ultimately a story about people struggling to find meaning.
EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THE X-FILES, THE END, NOW SCULLY WILL DEMONSTRATE MY EMOTIONS.
So without further ado..
( Let the picspam commence. )
