X-Files...trust me this is only the first

Well my pets settle in because this is one of my grand obsessions.

  X-files along with Buffy and Star Trek are my default settings, so sorry but theres gonna be a lot of posts about them.

So, recently got seasons 1-3 for $20 each, where you my ask with a gasp, Wal-Mart of all places. Which means I have spent most of the last week watching X-Files nearly non-stop, you know, really indulging my Mulder fetish.

But in between all the ogling I was doing, (btw he spends a lot more time naked than I remember) I was noticing all the actors I recognized, so I thought I'd share a few connections with you all. 

 

I suppose I should start chronologically and really one of the more attractive guest stars, Seth Green. Later to have a more major role as the laconic lycanthrope Oz, in BTVS, here he plays a UFO watching stoner in the episode Deep Throat, the first episode after the pilot.

The next episode, Squeeze, brings us a double with Doug Hutchison as Eugene Victor Tombs the stretchy slimy liver eating murder, and Donal Louge as Agent Tom Colton, an old friend of Scully's who asks for help and gets more than he really wants. 

Mr. Hutchison you might remember from the latest season of Lost as Horace Goodspeed. 

Donal Louge has been in several tv shows and movies, but the one I always go back to is the slimy and inept henchman Quinn in Blade. Donal had his own series for a while called Grounded for Life, that I think of fondly.

Now we're going to jump some episodes as my geekdar didn't go off again till Space. Susanna Thompson who plays NASA specialist Michelle Generoo trying to get her fiance out of orbit in one piece, later becomes Army Lt. Col. Hollis Mann, the spunky girl who challenges Jethro's authority, and tries for a little love in NCIS. This next fact has little bearing on the X Files, but the lovely David McCallum also stars in NCIS as Ducky. (If you haven't seen the show you should check it out!)

 

Alright last one for now!

 Fire this one is another twofer. With Mark Sheppard playing the obsessive pyrokentic  pyromanic. Mark can later be seen in the truly excellent cult hit by Joss Wheadon,  Firefly as Badger, and in the latest Wheadon project Dollhouse. 

The next guy to cause a bip is Dan Lett who plays the upper class english twit who's next in line to get turned into a crispy critter. Later on he becomes a wet Canadian twit in The Industry, a very good Canadian comedy that I highly recommend along with The Red Green Show.

Well thats all for right now, but I'm nowhere near finished we're not even through season 1 yet.

MUUUWHAHAHA.........
