R. #AtoZChallenge - The re-opening of The X-Files.

 
My 2015 Blogging from A to Z April Challenge theme is The re-opening of The X-Files. I'm not going to reiterate the known facts about the show, but share with you how it ruled my life for 9 seasons and beyond.

R = Read (fiction)

 

Oh, you thought I was done with the books?

Nah.

The first set I posted were non-fiction. These are the fiction books that came out by author Kevin J. Anderson.

There may be a few more that I don't have, but these came out first. And yes, they were pretty damn good.

Q = Queequeg

 Due to Scully's family obsession with Moby Dick, she names the dog she adopts Queequeg.
 Yep. The same dog that ate its owner when they croaked in their apartment.
The dog isn't seen much until the episode when it goes on a case with Scully & Mulder and gets eaten by a very large alligator.

Special Blogfest Announcement

Blood, Boobs, and Carnage Blogfest!

Hosted by Alex J. Cavanaugh and Heather M. Gardner. 

Yes, Blood, Boobs, and Carnage!

Alex used that phrase last year to describe an upcoming movie release. It amused many people, including ME. (Okay, mostly me)  So, naturally we decided to make it a blogfest.

What falls into that category? Here’s a few examples – Conan the Barbarian, Breaking Bad, Fast and Furious, The Watchmen, etc.

Here’s the details, short and simple:

On May 18, 2015, post about a movie, television show, book, or all three that falls into the category of Blood, Boobs, and Carnage. (Or just Blood and Carnage or other mixture.) It can be any genre that fits the bill – fantasy, science fiction, action, adventure, western, thriller, etc. Post the badge and visit other participants.

P = Publications

 
So, yeah, I do own quite a few magazines pertaining to the show. The TV Guide was especially enamored with The X-Files.
Almost as much as I was.

Episode: Detour
Mulder: Maybe it can regulate its temperature. You don't know of any animal that can? 
Scully: Ticks. I've heard they can halt their metabolism for up to 18 years, essentially going in to suspended animation until something warm-blooded comes along. 
Mulder: That's interesting. 
Scully: Why is that interesting? 
Mulder: Thirty years ago, the town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, was terrorized for over a year by something. Killing livestock, terrorizing the people. Witnesses described them as primitive-looking men with red, piercing eyes. Became known as the "Moth Men." I've got an X-File dating back to 1952 on it. 
Scully: What would that be filed next to? "The Cockroach that Ate Cincinnati?" 
Mulder: No, "The Cockroach that Ate Cincinnati" is in the "C"s. Moth Men's over in the "M"s.

It was such an anomaly when they would change the tagline for the show. Of course, looking at them all in a row here it looks like a lot, but trust me, it was a big deal at the time.

 

I still love the words 

Deceive Inveigle Obfuscate.

Episode: Alone
Harrison: Can I ask you something? 
Mulder: Sure. 
Harrison: When you went to Antarctica to save Agent Scully from being taken by that spaceship and you ran out of gas in your Sno-cat... how did you get back? 
Scully: Um, well, first of all, it was never (coughs) actually proven that it was a spaceship ... 
Mulder: It wasn't? 
Scully: Well, no, what happened was that we fell off of something that ... 
Mulder: Something? 
Scully: ...that rose out of the ice. 
Mulder: Well what do you think that was? 
Scully: Well, I don't know what it was. But we never got, we didn't actually get to see a spaceship. 
Mulder: I can't believe that you're saying it's not a spaceship. 
Scully: Well, it couldn't have been a spaceship. 
Mulder: 'Course it was a spaceship. 
Scully: Well, we don't know it was a spaceship. But you don't have a picture of it or anything. 
Mulder: You know it was a spaceship. You saw it. 
Scully: No, no, no, no, remember, I was unconscious and when I woke up there was no spaceship. 
Mulder: Now, come on, Scully. It was a spaceship. 
Scully: Mulder, n-n-n-no. 
Mulder: And you were frozen, and I hugged you ...

Episode: Shapes

ISH: I sense you are different, FBI. You're more open to Native American belief than some Native Americans. You even have an Indian name - Fox. You should be "Running Fox", or "Sneaky Fox".
MULDER: Just as long as it's not "Spooky Fox".
