EGSM 39: Is the truth out there? (The X-Files)
Added 2022-06-02 15:00:05 +0000 UTCToday on Enthusigasm, Alasdair, Helen, Nathan, and Rafaella talk about the nuances of this bizarre but iconic sci-fi show. Who is more relatable out of Mulder and Scully, why was The X-Files such a phenomenon, and do these very special agents ever get together? (It’s complicated, apparently.)

So glad you all did this one, making me want to rewatch the show, yet again. The episode I have definitely watched the most is "How the Ghosts Stole Christmas," fun and amusing and a little spooky and just a classic sort of ghost story.

Kid jus turned 19, must be time for a rewatch. This is the first episode of Enthusigasm for which I got every single cultural reference 😁 Another very positive recommendation for *Twin Peaks* too. Thanks so much!
