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.

Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant.

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.
And on to 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.
