But what makes this case anymore credible, than… the hundred-year-old mother with the lizard baby?

“I want to believe” is actually my favourite catchphrase to come out of The X-Files because it’s simultaneously optimistic and skeptical. “Wanting to believe” is different from blind faith - it implies that you’re holding out for a burden of proof, even when the belief itself is desirable. There’s a level of restraint in that phrase that is so beautiful and pure; it feels wondrous and curious but also totally sane and grounded in reality. I think that’s why it continues to resonate.

I’d like to formally recognize fox mulder for never once telling scully to “please speak english” when she talks about science!

[scullysflannel]

in all seriousness I love that hiding your intelligence is never the way to go on the x-files. the basis of mulder and scully’s relationship when they first meet is how much they respect each other’s expertise and it’s refreshing. the scientific process on txf is about challenging someone to prove themselves but wanting them to prove it. just the way they say things like “prefigured” when they talk about monsters, the tension between knowledge and imagination – or more accurately the way the show argues that there doesn’t need to be tension there, that in fact the smartest thing you can do is chase seemingly impossible possibilities…it’s good

I love that David Duchovny’s signature cocktail is a Screwdriver. It is quite simply the most Duchovny thing in the history of Duchovny. I can just picture his rationale:

“Well… I need to watch my boyish figure so I try to avoid beer - it really bloats me out. Also, a lot of beer is not vegan! Have you heard of Finings? It’s pretty gross - look into it. And wine - well - I love a nice wine, lots of health benefits there, but sometimes the sulfites really get to me and you can’t always get a *good* glass of wine at a bar - especially not the venues I’ll be playing in. On tour. With my band. Now… Vodka! Vodka is low-cal, usually very clean, and I tolerate it well - probably because of my Russian heritage. And I find that the Vitamin C in the orange juice really keeps me from feeling hungover the next day, and gives me that extra boost I need to maintain my energy on stage. But the best part is… it’s a two ingredient cocktail! You can’t fuck it up! You’ll never lose with a screwdriver.” -David Duchovny, probably.
