One thing I remember loving when I was ... younger ( I was about to say little but realised I still am), was sitting down every Thursday night with some crisps or other unhealthy stuff, and watch X-files. Sometimes it literally scared the wits out of me: I can still remember an episode where a man had a shadow that made you disappear if you stepped on it, freaked me out royally. I've always been a bit of sucker for the supernatural, fantasy and general mysteries. X-files was right up my ally. And Mulder was one of the first characters on the telly who I sort of fancied. In an innocent way. Yes, I do agree that X-files sort of lost me when it all became about the conspiracy theory, tobacco, bees and human cloning, the early episodes who had more or less one case per episode was by far the best. But I still liked it.
Safe to say I've been wanting the box set for ages now, and have been drooling over it for quite a while. But with 9 whole seasons on 61 discs you can claim that it is sort of.. pricey. But today, as I tend to do on the day I get my pay check, I had another surf around trusty Amazon. And EUREKA! The whole shebang, 61 dvds, for £ 60! (€75 or 615NOK). SOLD!
This fall, as it gets darker, colder, windier and eventually icy and snowy, I'm going to snuggle up in my couch with my tea and my unhealthy crisps, and the dog, and enjoy.
