The X-Files is an icon of the Sci-Fi genre and the ’90s alike. Centered around the investigations of Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Fox Mulder (David Duchovny), The X-Files followed in the footsteps of The Twilight Zone —chronicling their creepy, funny, and intriguing investigations into the world of the extraordinary. The first few seasons are some of the best science fiction to ever hit TV, and the show remains a touchstone of the heights televised science fiction can accomplish.
