The X Files

Introducing Fox Mulder & Dana Scully

Mulder and Scully with the words The X Files beneath

Dr. Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), a physician and special agent with the FBI, is assigned the job of keeping tabs on fellow agent Fox Mulder (David Duchovny), an odd but skilled detective whose deep obsession with the paranormal is of grave concern to his superiors. Working out of an office in the Hoover Building's basement, Mulder specializes in the Bureau's "X-Files": a collection of cold cases deemed unsolvable due to macabre or taboo elements. While Mulder is quick to attribute these to the supernatural and extraterrestrial, Scully is a skeptic who attempts to debunk his theories through scientific reasoning. Together, they investigate all manner of strange and unusual cases, which over time hint at a massive government conspiracy linked to a series of alien abductions going as far back as the 1940s.
