  • Background

    Special Agent Dana Sculley (Gillian Anderson) is assigned to a small division of the FBI called the X-Files. Her partner, who is the other half of the division, is Special Agent Fox Mulder (David Duchovny), who has a reputation as a difficult-to-work-with eccentric within the Bureau. She's told to ride herd on Mulder, and balance out his belief in extraterrestrial and supernatural phenomena with her own skepticism. The two uncover many unusual things that cannot be explained away, and eventually reveal a large government conspiracy.
