Two hundred two episodes of the American science fiction-supernatural television series The X-Files aired over nine seasons. The series originally ran on the Fox network from September 10, 1993 to May 19, 2002. The X-Files centers on FBI special agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), who work on cases linked to the paranormal, called X-Files. Mulder is a believer in the paranormal, and the skeptical Scully is assigned to make scientific analyses of Mulder's discoveries which could ultimately be used to discredit his work. Throughout the series the two develop a close friendship. The show's premise originated with Chris Carter (pictured), who served as an executive producer along with many others. Filming for seasons one to five took place primarily in Vancouver, British Columbia, and for the remaining seasons in Los Angeles, California. Episodes were broadcast on Fridays at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) for the series's first three seasons; the remaining six seasons aired on Sundays at 9:00 p.m. ET. (Full list...)
