Every week there's a new monster (MOTW) where all the evidence for outsiders disappears, or there's the mythology where the government is covering it up.

I'm a huge skeptic in almost everything, but if I saw what she saw, I would clearly believe. That's plenty of evidence for me, and I'm an actual scientist (well PhD engineer. I definitely did real science in school though)

The shit's clearly real in their universe.

Oh boy do you have some fun coming up.

I see most of X-Files filmed from Mulder's POV. There are some filmed from Scully's POV and you understand why she doesn't believe Mulders theories.

S3A:E12 is a good one from Scully's POV

Maybe I should have said rewatch.

I watched this growing up (in the before times, when if you missed an episode, you never saw it), and have rewatched it twice since the streaming era.

Anyway, definitely a good show.

What about, like, the "COPS" parody episode where Scully, completely separated from Mulder, sees another doctor she is performing an autopsy with start manifesting symptoms a deadly disease mere moments after mentioning it and scaring her (the supernatural thing was making your fears come true)? He didn't see it, even though I would say that episode was clearly from Mulder's point of view (and IIRC, Duchovney was the director on that one, as he did with a lot of the more humorous episodes) if not from the POV of the cameraman following them around (again, cops parody; it was filmed like an episode of cops). Did he just make shit up?

I misread cameraman as Cartman and it was a funny visual! 🤣
