Special Agent Dana Scully, played by Gillian Anderson (definitely NOT in the hot guys section) Born February 23 1963, the daughter of a US navy captain, did undergraduate work in physics before doing a degree in medicine, but deciding not to practice (to the disappointment of her parents) she joined the FBI and was assigned to The X-Files, partnering Fox Mulder. She was abducted by an unknown force after a year on The X-Files and was left barron and with an unexplained complex chip in her neck which when removed resulted in a tumour pressing against her brain. Her recent mysterious pregnancy has yet to be explained. In the first 7 years of the show, the storylines, mytharcs and the chemistry between the two main characters, Mulder and Scully gathered a huge range of audiences who avidly tuned in each week to see what new mysteries lurked around the corner. By the end of the seventh season, David Duchovny wanted a lighter work load and the charcter of Doggett was introduced making Robert Patrick the newest addition to The X-Files team. As the show begins filming its ninth season, there are *still* mysteries to be uncovered. Emma's top three episodes of each season. (Please note: I'm weird and unconventional, my favourites are probably different from yours, I just felt like putting this here) Season One: 3) Deep Throat (1x01) Acting on a tip from an inside source, Mulder and Scully travel to Idaho to investigate unusual disappearances of test pilots. Emma's review: Sweaty Mulder..... paranoid atmosphere... WOOHOO! 2)Born Again (1x21) A series of murders is linked to a little girl, who may be the reincarnated spirit of a murdered policeman. Emma's review: Psycho, possessed kid goes on a vengeful killing rampage. Yay!! 1)Ice (1x07) Mulder and Scully go and investigate a series of apparent suicides of a research team in the Arctic, only to be forced to quarantine themselves when they discover an unknown organism. Emma's review: Angst, paranoia AND weird little bug things... now that's entertainment.
Season 2 3)Humbug (2x20) Mulder and Scully investigate a bizarre death of an escape artist in a town where sideshows are a way of life, and nothing is what it seems. Emma's review: warped and hilarious 2)End Game 2/2 (2x17) The alien bounty hunter has taken Scully prisoner and he must decide between keeping his sister (who may not be all she seems) and getting Scully back. Emma's review: I could get drunk on the angst in this one 1)Duane Barry 1/2 (2x05) A hostage situation leads Mulder to Duane Barry, a supposed multiple abductee, who needs someone to sacrifice to the aliens in order to stop the torture, he finds that someone in Dana Scully. Emma's review: Fantastic episode.
