Teens can keep saying that Game of Thrones is the best tv show. For me The X-Files will always be the best show in history. The mystic feeling and the bond between mulder and scully is so beautiful.

Brilliant fucking line, will rewatch the episode just for it

I gotta say that the pilot episode was by far one of the best written pilots on a TV show I have ever seen. And the actors having such incredible chemistry basically right off the bat was something rare and special you never get to witness in a lot of modern TV. That episode has to be my favorite because it's what got me to love the show.

@teeniegroup5488

Have you seen the in-universe series Millennium too? It also was created by Chris Carter and it also has one of the greatest Pilots. They are comparable. But I fully agree, the X-Files is the best thing on TV still...

Many pilots surpassed X Files, such as LA LAW, Kung Fu, Hill Street Blues..

One of my favorite episodes is Triangle, the one where Mulder is in the Bermuda Triangle and goes back in time during World War II while Scully tries to rescue him. I love how that episode was shot and directed, how it does a split screen of long takes of Mulder in the past and Scully running around the FBI building trying to save him.

Dude when I was a little kid in the 90's (I'm talking 5-6y/o) I'd watch the Simpsons with my dad and then when I'd hear this spooky music come on after I would leave because I was too afraid of this show. To this day when I hear it, I relive that thrill of nostalgic cowardice. Lol shit sounded like ghost music! It scared the shit out of me!

I've been watching TV series my whole life and haven't seen anything better than X-Files. The extremely dedicated cast, the clever stories, the plot, everything works. But nothing, absolutely nothing compares to the chemistry between Mulder and Scully. It must be the most silent and obvious love in history. Never again will anyone be able to create a couple like this on TV or the cinema.

Best quote from the episode, after the Men in Black confiscate the camera footage and release it commercially as an intentionally absurd "alien autopsy" video to discredit Mulder, Scully, and UFOology. Narrated by TV psychic Yappi: "Who is this mysterious man, who seems to oversee the proceedings? And vhat secret government agency does this autopsy doctor vork for?"

I got chills when I saw Clyde Bruckman so high on the list. Its the episode I think about the most years after seeing the series, his performance for me was definitive, and the writing better than most nobel books

jack harvey It was back in early 2013 when I found out about The X-Files, the first few episodes I wasn't hooked at all, and since I was quite young at the time, I dismissed it because it was a bit too old for me. A few days a later I gave it another chance, and something changed, I don't know what, but something changed. I went through the first few seasons in days. It was scary, I was like a crack junkie. I should've only watched a couple of episodes a day, I remember crying after the series was done, because there were no more episodes left.

+Adam Sawiris no, then u would have to relearn it all again.

So many great episodes; far too many to list. I haven't seen Oubliette mentioned, but that's one that sticks with me. Featuring a young Jewel Staite (later of Firefly fame) as a kidnapping victim, and a previous victim of the same kidnapper has an unwanted mental connection with her.

This shows has always been my favorite. Truly the stir of my class in high school when this first started airing!

Interesting thing, Vince Gilligan is one of the top writers of the x-files, and he is the creator of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. So, if you look carefully in all the x-files episodes he has written, you will find that the Breaking Bad and BCS cast members: Bryan Cranston (Walter White), Aaron Paul (Jesse Pinkman), Anna Gunn (Skyler White), Dean Norris (Hank Schrader), Raymond Cruz (Tuco Salamanca), and Michael McKean (Chuck McGill) are all in at least one x-files episode. Cool right?

The show has well documented scenery and the music and atmosphere is just great. You just have to see the show to get what I mean. I promise, it's worth the time!

How can you put tooms on here without squeeze

@coreymartin6363

5 жыл бұрын

Well they can't really put both halves of a two part (well, "callback" episode, I guess you could call it) when they only have 10 to work with. I've seen a few of their "listeos" like "10 best fps video games," or whatever and they often specify that they only choose one per series (since obviously Wolfenstein would take up several slots). I just watched (most of) the X-files series (i didn't always double back when Prime would play a few more after I fell asleep) for the first time recently and I enjoyed it quite a bit. If you think that they should have picked the other episode instead...I guess they disagree.

Wow ICE has always the top pick of my list. Great to see someone else recognise this. The pure intensity and brilliant peroformances won it for me. I also liked "Grotesque" for its gritty noir..... and a much later episode, "Release". For me Agent Dogget brought back the intensity and committed performances that was lacking in the later seasons.

I really like 731, war of The coprophages, small potatoes, unusual suspects, Monday, triangle, The unnatural, The amazing Maleeni, first person shooter, Hollywood A.D., fight club, not to mention all the amazing two-part Episodes. Also anything with the lone gunmen was usually pretty good.

I think it doesn't really make much sense in doing a "top 10 episodes" for a show like the x files. In all honesty, the x files has so many good episodes that it really comes down to personal preference. i could replace 5 episodes from this list easily. Paper clip was always a must in terms of the series long running story. Paper hearts, Folie à Deux, Drive and Grotesque. Again, i was never much a fan of the comedy side of the x files, i really liked the more intense episodes.
