Yet, these episodes display the elements for which the show would become famous: the cinematic production values and top-notch special effects, the stark lighting of the Vancouver sets, the atmospheric halo of Mark Snow's score, and the clever plots dealing with subjects ranging from the occult, religion, and monsters to urban legends, conspiracy theories and science fiction. Most importantly, Season 1 introduces FBI agents Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Fox "Spooky" Mulder (David Duchovny), two of the most attractive government officials around. Scully is the serious-minded medical scientist assigned to join Mulder on the X Files, a division of the FBI dealing with the paranormal. Mulder is the intuitive thinker with a dry wit, a passionate believer in the existence of paranormal phenomena and one of the few characters on television smart enough to figure out who the bad guy is before the audience does. Their muddled relationship, a deep friendship laced with sexual tension, provides the human heart in a world where the bizarre and horrible lurk in everyday society. The materials on the bonus disc provide some interesting trivia and background, but it is the 24 episodes themselves that make this seven-disc boxed set a true find. Those unfamiliar with The X Files often view all the fuss with the same scepticism with which Scully first regards her new partner's ideas. But just as she comes to realise the uncanny accuracy of Mulder's outlandish theories, newcomers to The X Files who sample a few episodes in this boxed set will likely find themselves riveted to their television late into the night. And undoubtedly, the shadows and creaking noises in the house that evening will seem more menacing than usual. -- Eugene Wei All 24 episodes from the first season of the hugely popular paranormal detective show. Follow Agents Mulder and Scully as they battle corruption within the government and spooky goings on. Stand-out episodes from the first season include 'Ice', in which Mulder and Scully fly to a frozen Arctic out-post to investigate the eerie deaths of an entire team of scientific researchers assigned to drill deep within the earth to study prehistoric core samples. Others include 'Fallen Angel', 'E.B.E' and 'The Erlenmeyer Flask'. Review: no spoilers. recommend - I was abit young when the x-files was running and my TV reception was through a mini aerial on an island in the middle of nowhere. The grainy static effect always made me think this was the adults version of goosebumps. The new series made me want to try this from the beginning before I watch the new one. Easy to say I'm enjoying this in the evening, some episodes are abit lacking in thought but by far most are nothing but entertaining. I liked the episode in remote Alaska as I'm sure this is how the first movie got its plot from which was nice to click on to. I've always loved abit of Sci fi, maybe those childhood memories from trying to watch this is where I got it from. These seasons are about 20 odd episodes long, if your planning on watching these from the beginning, you have 201 left to go before the new series. One last thing, it's nice to see some famous actors of recent and past times make appearances. The little guard from the green mile is perhaps the best performer and the psychic in the gas chamber. Have fun. Review: Entertainment for geeks and those of us interested in the Unknown. - I never saw any of these films on TV and only knew about them from friends,family and the media. So I thought it was long overdue for me to evaluate the series for myself.I wasn't disappointed. Obviously not all are about UFOs or Aliens but they are definitely about the weird and wonderful. And that's what appealed to so many people and made the series such a success. David Duchovny was an inspired choice for lead male actor but Scully - Gillian Anderson - who would have thought she was going to be such an excellent partner ?! I loved the way she said a thousand words with just a sigh or gesture,brilliant ! And the way she portrayed resignation at Mulder's determination to pursue the 'truth'. Silent but strong I guess would be a good description,and very endearing too. Good script writing sure,but even better was the interpretation of the words by the actors. When you've got something right,it shows. So I'm glad I took the plunge and bought the whole of season one.(7 discs) Now I know what all the fuss was about. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Alex Gansa, Charles Cioffi, Chris Brancato, Chris Carter, Chris Ruppenthal, Cliff DeYoung, Daniel Sackheim, David Butler, David Duchovny, David Nutter, Fred Gerber, Gillian Anderson, Glen Morgan, Harry S.

The season is split into two styles of episodes with standalone case-of-the-week episodes taking up much of the season and the myth arc episodes that tie into the larger storyline of the show as a whole. While I am usually more interested in long running storyline episodes I do feel that the X Files is the exception with the case-of-the-week episodes being of far better quality than the myth arc episodes. This first season of the show includes some of the better episodes of the series run with episodes such as the brilliant `Squeeze', its sequel `Tooms' and `Shapes' being my favourite. Many of the special effects are looking slightly dated but not as much as some of the other shows this old and there are also some other affects that still look good today. The acting and writing for the series was always good and this first season is no exception. Overall while the show did unfortunately disappear up its own mythology in later years this first season and the following ones are still some of the best sci-fi TV around. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/51464074-the-x-files-season-1](https://www.desertcart.at/products/51464074-the-x-files-season-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-11-06*
