After the climatic events of last years GateSlashers, we're back with another four spine chilling episodes about 4 horror properties you may want to check out. Dan calls upon Jake to investigate a mystery that they both thought had been buried in the finale of last year's events. Some things don't stay buried and they're going to need some classified government documents and a Chevy Impala to finally hunt down their greatest foe. I hope you're ready because GateSlashers II: I Want to Believe begins here... We're kicking this year off with one of the biggest horror television shows of all time, The X-Files. Join Dan Hernandez and Dan McMahon as they dig into the essential monster of the week show. You may know Dan as the co-writer of Pokemon: Detective Pikachu, The Addams Family 2, and the upcoming Hulu series Koala Man. But to us, he's just the newest GateCrasher in our first OnlyDans episode. The X-Files follows agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) as they investigate the FBI's most paranormal and fringe cases known as the X-Files. The series redefined horror television as it became on of the biggest shows of all time. The show took off to become one of the 90's biggest properties with two spin-offs and two motion pictures in the span of it's 11 seasons. Dan H. teaches Dan about the community of the The X-Files who refer to themselves as X-Philes as Dan recalls. The two dig deep into some of the series' mysteries. Dan M. talks about his love for the Smoking Man and his whole aesthetic. Dan H. also recalls what the internet was like during the time of The X-Files television run and how the community was split about if Mulder and Scully should end up together. Dan M. feels like a baby when Dan has to explain the different forums he used in his youth to talk about the show. Episodes we covered... Season 1, Episode 1: Pilot Season 7, Episode 12: X-Cops Season 4, Episode 2:Home Season 3, Episode 4: Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose Season 1, Episode 13: Beyond the Sea
Jakub Popielecki i Michał Walkiewicz inaugurują cykl "Serial Killers Retro" i rozmawiają o "Z Archiwum X". Jak zestarzał się kultowy serial, w którym agenci FBI Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) i Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) stawiali czoła spiskom, kosmitom i zjawiskom paranormalnym? Który gościnny aktorski występ zapadł nam najbardziej w pamięć? Który "potwór tygodnia" sprawił, że nie mogliśmy zasnąć? Który odcinek był najlepszy? Zapraszamy na zaprawioną nostalgią dyskusję o "Z Archiwum X".
O Arquivo X acompanha as vidas dos Agentes Especiais do FBI Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) e Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson). Mulder é um analista comportamental talentoso e crente no sobrenatural, especialmente em extraterrestres. Isso acaba lhe rendendo o apelido de "Spooky Mulder" e sua atribuição a um departamento pouco conhecido que trata de casos não resolvidos, conhecido como Arquivo X. Nos seus respectivos anos de lançamento, onde a internet ainda estava nascendo e a popularidade da série era totalmente apoiada em publicações de revistas especializadas, sua importância no cenário do entretenimento foi imensa, porque foi a partir dela que os estúdios começaram a perceber que os fãs estavam dispostos a absorver dramaturgias mais elaboradas. Com a abordagem de assuntos geralmente ridicularizados como paranormais e a existência de vida extraterrestre, esses temas foram tratados de forma mais intensa. Os roteiros eram apoiados em conspirações governamentais, documentos sigilosos, lendas urbanas e mitos milenares com tudo sendo analisado pela ótica científica, deixando para o espectador a opção de aceitar ou não os fatos. Hoje, nossos investigadores Andrei Fernandes e Rafael Jacaúna convidam Fábio Barreto do podcast Gente que Escreve, Mariana Lima e Oliver Perez do podcast Grande Coisa para discorrer sobre essa série original que foi ao ar durante um período de transição da tv. Arquivo X abraçou novos conceitos, com seu criador realizando mini filmes todas as semanas, enquanto ainda utilizava muitas novas técnicas do mundo televisivo. Learn more about your ad choices.

# Description In 1993, special agents Dana Scully and Fox Mulder began their quest for irrefutable proof of the existence of the paranormal and popular culture has never been the same. ## Episode Outline **Topics:** the importance of fan-fiction to the X-Philes community, the strength of the community over the decades it has existed, creators' interactions with the 90s fandom, fans' reactions to the recent reboots, can a fandom survive without new content? ### Fandom Facts * “The series revolves around Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) special agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny), and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) who investigate X-Files: Marginalized, unsolved cases involving paranormal phenomena. Mulder believes in the existence of aliens and the paranormal, while Scully, a medical doctor and a skeptic, is assigned to make scientific analyses of Mulder's discoveries to debunk his work and thus return him to mainstream cases.” -[Wikipedia - The X-Files](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_X-Files) * Unfortunately, [Google Trends data only goes back to 2004](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=%2Fm%2F07g9f), and season 9, the last season to air before a long break, ended in 2002. From that data, it looks like interest has been on the decline, but spiked in 2008 (_The X-Files: I Want To Believe_), 2016 (Season 10), and a much smaller spike than either in 2018 (Season 11). * Couldn't find data, but from this note from Fanlore (originally a Tumblr post, [A Note about the X-Files Fandom](https://fanlore.org/wiki/A_Note_about_the_X-Files_Fandom)): * “The X-Files' prime Nielsen demographic targets were 18-49. That was the most popular viewing age for the show. … The average viewer was in their mid- to late-20s. They had jobs and families that came home to watch TV together at the end of the day. The people who wrote most of the classic fan fiction we have today were in their 20s at the time, or 30s.” ### First Impressions **G:** Never something that he got into, G regarded *The X-Files* as simply that show that came on after *The Simpsons*. Really aware of it primarily through other bits of pop culture that reference it. **T:** He watched a little bit of the later seasons of the series' first run when the episodes were fun (e.g.: the gang finds a genie and has various wishes granted), but never really became invested in it. **Z:** It was something that he was only ever really aware of through other bits of pop culture. In more recent years, it's seemed a little interesting to him, but not enough for him to seek any of it out. ### Observations Overall, the fandom seems to be as strong as ever, if perhaps shrinking. But, as Z observed, as long as the show is on services like Netflix, it will probably find an audience among those who are interested in shows that blend soap opera and (paranormal) conspiratorial mystery elements. Fan fiction still seems to be very important to the community, perhaps because the series' continuity is lacking in some areas or because, as of this recording Mulder and Scully have yet to be in an explicit romantic relationship. Also, in the current culture of binge-watching, the series' general “monster-of-the-week” format helps it to fit right in. ### Conclusions **G:** There's simply too much of it to catch up on, and, because it's mostly a “monster-of-the-week” kind of show, he wasn't convinced it would catch and keep his interest. **T:** He had watched a few episodes of the series recently and found himself entertained. If he can make the time to do so, he'll probably watch more of it, maybe some of the earlier seasons. **Z:** Admittedly, it might scratch the same itch his near annual *Twin Peaks* rewatches do. But, he was not convinced that it would be quite as good as *Peaks* because it was too much of a mainstream success (yep, Z played the hipster card). Though, at some point, he said that he wo
This week, this Nicks have a look at the hot new (3-year old) shounen anime that's sweeping the world - Boku no Hero Academia! They'll talk about the strengths and weaknesses of ensemble shows, what the superhero craze looks like reflected through and Japanese mirror and whether or not anyone axtually likes Mineta! Click here for more information on the Livestream for the Cure! Fandom Facts “My Hero Academia … follows Izuku Midoriya, a boy born without superpowers (called quirks) in a world where they have become commonplace, but who still dreams of becoming a hero himself. He is scouted by the world's greatest hero, who shares his quirk with Izuku after recognizing his potential, and later enrolls him in a high school for heroes in training.” The BNHA subreddit is pretty popular: Within the first three months of the subreddit’s creation, it went from almost 300 000th to somewhere in the 15 000’s (and is now ~1400th most popular subreddit). Someone did a fan survey with general interests in the anime on the subreddit (circa 2018). Of the over 400 responses, here are some interesting bits: Best aspect of BNHA: The characters (53%), the overall concept (28%) 11% dislike generally shonen (the remainder are either indifferent or like shonen) 47% have read the manga in its entirety 7% dropped the show completely; 5.8% strongly disliked it or hated it There was also this fan survey which was more about the characters which had some demographics (and a thousand responses)! Predominantly male (76.4%), with some female representation (20.6%) Overwhelmingly young: 85%+ under 24 (20-24: 42.7%; 17-19: 33.2%) Favourite character: Izuku Midoriya (39.2%), Katsuki Bakugou (21.5%), Toshinori Yagi (18.8%) Main weakness of the show: Too many characters (46.5%), some characters have limited development (33.6%) Interest in BNHA is definitely on the rise, and it’s the most popular it’s been … ever (which isn’t surprising, since it’s still coming out). BUT while it is popular, it hasn’t surpassed Naruto (too big to show) or One Piece (on the decline), even if it is overcoming series like Bleach and Fairy Tale. According to Fandometrics, BNHA was the #1 Anime and Manga fandom, and #5 fandom overall for 2018. First Impressions Z: Before I started watching the series I figured that it was just another shonen series that G was really into because he’s a fan of superhero stuff. Admittedly, even watching through the first episode or two I wasn’t quite convinced that it was anything more than just another Dragon Ball, another sprawling shonen series poised to seize the world’s imagination the way that Naruto or One Piece did. But then, I think it was something said during Deku’s initial training (or maybe just the quirkiness of seeing all the Star Wars references in place names -- neat, but...why!?) or maybe his heroism in trying to save Bakugo from the sludge villain, after that bit of the show demonstrated its heart I was in for the long haul. T: Beyond know that it is popular, and seeing it crop up in spots like the Anime Feminist, I didn’t think much of it other than that it might be the next Fairy Tale / Bleach / Naruto / Dragonball Z / Shonen show. G heavily recommended it and I watched the first season, and while there were still heavy shonen tones, I got a better appreciation of it, and liked the vibe (X-men, but anime) and that it wasn’t all focussed on just the protagonist. Observations What we thought about the thing / fandom after reviewing it. Try to make this more of a review style. Conclusions Any concluding thoughts on the fandom. Famous Last Words What did we have to say about next week’s topic, The X-Files, with only our first impressions? G: Is The X-Files about the characters or the concepts?_ _ *T: *What was the impact of Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) on the show?_ _ Z: After his appearance in Twin Peaks… was anybody looking forward to seeing David Duchovny dressed as a woman on the X-Files?

On episode 23 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan sits down at The Nerdist School in Los Angeles to talk with Amanda Salvatore and Jackie Rae Aubel of The Guilty Pleasure Podcast. Each week, the ladies bring on guests to discuss their guiltiest of pleasures, and they grill Ryan on his most guilty obsession; The X-Files. In one of the longest-running science fiction series in network TV history, FBI special agents investigate unexplained, mind-bending cases known as "X-Files." Though the government is convinced that the outlandish reports are false, conspiracy theorist Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and realist Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), for most of the series, stop at nothing to prove that "the truth is out there." Amanda, Jackie, and Ryan navigate their way through the insanely complex alien conspiracy throughout the series, the steamy sexual tension between Mulder and Scully, and where the show is heading when it returns for an eleventh season in early 2018. The truth is in this episode, and you have been given top secret access to listen now. TRUST NO ONE! Guest Bios: Jackie Rae Aubel is a writer, comedian, and producer based in Los Angeles. She has studied improv and sketch comedy at the Upright Citizen's Brigade (NY), the People's Improv Theatre (NY) and the Nerdist School (LA). For the past 5 years, she's written, produced and directed both live and scripted comedy. She's currently a writer and actor on the Nerdist School house sketch team, 'The Vanities'. She is also co-host and producer of the 'Guilty Pleasure Show' on Project Alpha and the 'Guilty Pleasure Podcast' on the Nerdist School Network. Amanda Salvatore recently moved from her beloved New York to the ever sunny LA. She's loving her time here, but not so surprisingly misses Dollar Slice (specifically 99 Cent Express Pizza on 43rd and 8th). She used to sing and "dance" in musicals for many years but decided that writing jokes was a way more sensible life choice. She has studied improv and/or sketch writing with UCB, IO West, The Magnet, and The Nerdist School. She is a part of the improv group, The Vanities. This episode is brought to you by HelloFresh.
