I just finished with the entire series yesterday. I really enjoyed it until about half way through the last season. It's funny watching Scully's hairstyle change.
I think next i'm on to Stargate SG-1

Liam and I are watching the entire X-files series starting from the beginning. I love the show, but it does scare the crap out of me. For instance, in the first or second season, I couldn't watch the episode with the soft-spoken bathtub killer, you know, the one who washed their hair and...oie, it creeps me out bigtime. I remember being very upset by it the first time (and only) time I saw it, and I did try to watch it again, but had to call it quits.
We are also watching the entire series of, in no particular order:
- Arrested Development, for the second time
- Dr. Who, me for the first time, and Liam for the millionth time
- Star Trek, the original, finished it and LOVED it
- Star Trek Next Generation, me and Liam for the first time. I love the original Star Trek but never got into NG when it was on TV. Now I love it, too.
- Fringe, we haven't begun this one yet, but we are looking forward to it
- Supernatural, first time for me and Liam
- Yes, Minister, a fantastic policital comedy series from Britain, filmed in the 70's but absolutely current today
- Rumpole of the Bailey
- Mad Men, we finished the series and are awaiting the new season
- the complete works of Woody Allen, all the movies, A-Z
- the complete works of Christopher Guest, hilarious and we just finished them last night
- Black Books, an old British comedy that I find OK but that Liam loves
- 30 Rock, Love it, waiting for the latest season to come out on DVD
- Millenium, I saw the first year when it aired, Liam has seen the whole thing. We will get to this after X-Files.
- Rome, I LOVE THIS SHOW, and Liam has never seen it
- Lord of the Rings, saw it all again a couple of weekends ago
- People Like Us, an hysterical British comedy that I highly recommend; it's terribly subtle
- Raw Nerve, William Shatner's interview series
- Twin Peaks, though I don't know if I want to see it again (saw it when it aired) This is Liam's absolute favorite show of all time.
- The Office, British version, finished that a few months back for the 3rd or 4th time
- Eddie Izzard's concerts, boxed sets, love, love, love, Eddie
- Flight of the Concords, we began this and love it but seem to get to everything else first.
- Dexter, we finished this a while ago and loved it. I saw the first 4 years twice and the 5th once, while it was all new to Liam.
As Liam just said, it's a full life.
We seldom get out of the house. Well, that's not true, but we do spend a LOT of time watching all these shows.

We recently watched all of Arrested Development and Twin Peaks. And since you got it stuck in my head, i'll leave this for you:

Ok, apparently I can't embed videos. Will have to adjust my settings and try again.

I just began watching the series again as well. I couldn't believe it but even though I have been a huge fan for many years (my family too - we even watch the How The Ghost Who Stole Christmas episode every Christmas), I discovered several episodes in the Season One box set that I had never seen before. Eve was one of them, Shapes is another. Not sure how something like that could happen, but it was pretty exciting. How often do you get a new episode of a show so many years after it ended.

Wow, and Eve is a great episode too! A good one to discover.

And on to Season 3...

I got ahead of you, LOL. I'm about 1/3 of the way through Season 3.

Now I am too! I love the one where the guy knows when everyone will die. Very mysterious that he says Scully won't.

Yup, that was a HUGE thing on the X-Files discussion groups when that episode came out, LOL. Everyone came up with all these theories about "what" Sculy was that she wouldn't die, hahaha.
