Run Scully Run

The X-Files aired just as I was entering my extreme luddite phase, dropping out of computer science classes and heading for the woods. Now that I've settled into my mid-30s eating snacks and staring at a constant streaming Netflix connection, I've started catching up with the adventures of scintillating Scully and melancholic Mulder. It's a pretty consistently great show. There are definitely some turds (I'm only up to season 5 so far), but I'm regularly impressed by the level of writing and production values. Great show. Worth the hype.

One of my favorite elements, besides scenes of Mulder crying, is when Scully has to run. She really moves, and it cracks me up every time. I figured there must be a collection of scenes of her running somewhere on the net, but alas, I'm going to have create my own.

From season 4, episode 24: Gethsemane.

Sidenote, Gillian Anderson and I share a personal quote: "When I think of normal, I think of mediocrity, and mediocrity scares the fuck out of me!"
