Who's the better one-off character? (Round 3)

Steve & Edy (played by J.W. Smith & Curtis Jackson in "X-Cops")

The Petries (played by Gillian Anderson & David Duchovny in "Arcadia”)

Voting ended onAug 6, 2025

Steve & Edy: Gays not buried! Also they manage to resolve conflict maturely and stay together. Pretty good queer rep for the year 2000

The Petries: Named after the Dick Van Dyke show. Cute couple. Wonder why they never appeared again

X-Cops: A filming of an episode of COPS gets in the way of the collaborative effort between the FBI and the local police department. Mulder later finds out that the monster feeds on fear. While Mulder embraces the publicity, Scully is not so sure of it. The episode was filmed as if it were an authentic episode of the TV series COPS.

Arcadia: Several disappearances at an idyllic planned community lead Mulder and Scully to go undercover as a married couple. However, they soon discover that the president of the homeowners' association takes the community covenants and regulations more seriously than they could have imagined.

Look, all I am saying is if you watch the Dick Van Dyke Show and you don’t come out of it wishing you were married to Rob Petrie too, you are watching the show wrong.
