The X-Files 2018

Yeah sorry, I meant she was younger than the role she played.

Ohhhh I thought you mean she was older when the baby fat comment was made :slightly_smiling_face: I seeee.

So yeah, she was :grinning: she ages well (and naturally).

Yeah really can say that on the current (which it still is for me) season.

Aye. They seem to have toned down the ‘alien’ on this one.

Tonight I will watch the last episode!!!
I can’t wait!

Two more weeks and then it´s over with here too.

I´m thinking about starting American Horror Story after that. Is that any good?

I found it a bit too cheesy.

I got a little impression of that too just watching some previews. If it´s tonally too far off it might stop me from watching, maybe I just check out a season or two. There is like 80 or so episodes out now.

I won’t say anything until @milanfahrnholz has watched it.

But keep in mind that Disney has just acquired Fox.
Everything is possible now, in perfect X-Files style!

Except that Gillian Anderson isn’t signing up for any more episodes apparently, so it’d just be Mulder drawn all boggle-eyed and droopy!

I liked today´s Black M…I mean X-Files episode.

Which one? Nothing lasts forever?

:slightly_smiling_face: It was very Black Mirror, wasn’t it? I liked it too. I loved the opening with just the two of them together, and the near-silence. It had a really good atmosphere.

It was fun. I liked the unusual style with sparse dialogue as well that weird looking fish. And Scully´s vibrator (something I never thought I´d say) which was somewhat oddly shaped (might have been a censorship issue).

Yeah, that was funny. I assumed the shape was for ambiguity, to allow for the idea that it could be something else (but we all know it wasn’t).

I believe a brief glimpse at her online receipt showed a very obvious euphemism. I got the idea of censorship because I once read that the first TV appearance of a vibrator was on Miami Vice and they had to paint it silver to make it less recognizable as one.

Oh! Must’ve forgotten that bit. Actually it’s starting to concern me how much I realise I’ve forgotten when you recount these to me again.

Yes, because none would come in silver. :thinking:

It made sense in the context of the plot though since it involved Sonny looking for a female serial killer and when the woman came on him with the thing he drew his gun thinking it was a knife (but it was also dark).

Well at least it seems the FCC in 1988 didn´t think there were silver ones. :man_shrugging:

edit:

in think there were siilver ones.

Corrected but keeping this as a reminder of how confused I am.
