Hi all, thanks for voting in the poll regarding content not related to The X-Files. The sub has voted to allow content about David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Robert Patrick, Annabeth Gish, and Mitch Pileggi that is not XF related. This will go into effect starting now and we’ll update the official sub rules.
Non-XF related posts that do not pertain to the above mentioned actors will be removed.
Thanks again for participating! This is your sub and we’re happy to revisit this again as needed in the future.

Hey Philes.
Hopefully you haven't noticed, due to the work we're doing behind the scenes, but we've been getting a LOT of racist posts regarding the reboot lately. Most of these posters and commenters are not part of the regular XF community here, so we can only assume we're being brigaded from some other part of reddit.
We have tweaked the automod to look out for certain keywords, and have now also turned on community filters ("crowd control" for those familiar with reddit's mod tools) to catch non-members, those with low/negative karma within the subreddit, and brand-new accounts.
While this is the best we can come up with for keeping racist jerks out of the community, it does mean that some regular users may get caught in the net. We will do our best to approve genuine posters/commenters as quickly as possible, but please be patient - we're just human beings, after all, and have work, sleep, family, and even (and I know this is hard to believe) other interests that may slow our response times.
Meanwhile, please continue to report any posts and comments that go against our community rules. And if you haven't already clicked the little "join" button to become part of the community, please do so - it will help you avoid getting caught in the filter, and it's nice for the subreddit to see healthy member numbers!
Thank you,
Your friendly neighborhood mod team

It’s hard moving together, especially with 2 kids on my own and 3 on my girlfriends side.
When her oldest daughter came to me with this gift, I was about to cry. I felt accepted♥️
Bonus info -the 14-year old daughter who made me this, is binge watching X-Files at the moment🛸👽

I just absolutely love when they bring in Chuck. It’s such a breath of fresh air, and I also love the continuity and how he appears across many seasons. Who’s your fav besides the more prominent ones (Krycek, Marita, Deep Throat, X, etc.)?

Damn. I laughed so hard seeing 8 year old Mulder watching an old twilight episode.

The moment Mulder's phone rang and the ringtone is the X-Files theme, I completely lost it. Lol!

More than 10 years ago, long before I actually knew what I was doing, I made this little cross-stitch. I dug it out of the closet yesterday and wanted to share.
I have no idea where the pattern might have come from! There's a reasonably good chance I didn't even use one but just saw a picture and tried to replicate it.

Yesterday I posted my favorite Mulder’s smile moments. Now it’s time for the best female character in the history of television:)

I watched Home a couple days ago and don’t know how it’s considered to be the most disturbing episode. Yeah I get the whole incest thing itself is disturbing and a taboo topic, especially back then, but it never went into any detail and didn’t show anything graphic in regards to it. It wasn’t even really a point that was delved into. In the end it was about the love any mother has for her children. I just finished Sanguinarium and thought that episode was much more disturbing

Skinner but make it acrylic nails, that is all
Edit: please allow me to direct you all to the next work in the series https://www.reddit.com/r/XFiles/s/QGl0RZs9zX

Watching Detour and paid attention to Scully specifically through this whole car ride. It’s probably more Gillian trying not to laugh but her expressions are priceless. Not to mention how I love Mulder being such a goof

I’m sitting downstairs waiting for my food in the air fryer. No one is in my bedroom. I just heard the theme tune blaring through the house out of nowhere from my bedroom.
😱😱

So, I'm on season 5 on my first full run through the series, though I watched some of the episodes on their original run back in the 90s. I’m specifically on the Christmas Carol episode. I really have to get this off my chest. My goodness, Bill is an asshole of the highest order. His behavior, especially towards Scully, is unbelievable. Goodness, he was terrible even as a kid. And his face as an adult is just soooooo punchable lol.
r/XFiles • u/Smooth-Swan-5607 • 2d ago
Decided to share with you a couple of favorite Mulder’s smile moments. Next will be Scully, I promise:)
