Gillian Anderson Just Hand Picked Her 6 Favorite “X-Files” Episodes
Oh and by the way, Gillian Anderson is finally getting her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Monday, January 8th, two years after David Duchovny received his!
With “The X-Files” returning for its eleventh season on January 3, now is a great time to binge-watch the previous ten seasons. According to our calculations, 208 episodes of the show have thus far aired between the premiere in 1993 and the finale of Season 10 in 2016; in other words, you’d better get a move on that marathon!
If you’d rather just revisit your favorite episodes than ALL of them, that’s a good idea too. But which are your faves? Better yet, which are Gillian Anderson’s?!
Just last night, the official “X-Files” Twitter account did something pretty cool: they live-streamed six episodes from the show’s past, that list curated by Anderson herself. The live-stream is long over at the time of writing this post, but if you’re wondering which episode’s Anderson hand-selected to play during the binge, we’ve got that info for ya.
For starters, Anderson’s favorite episode is “Bad Blood,” part of Season 5.
Here’s the full list:
- 1) “Ice” – Season 1, Episode 8
- 2) “Humbug” – Season 2, Episode 20
- 3) “Jose Chung’s from Outer Space” – Season 3, Episode 20
- 4) “The Post-Modern Prometheus” – Season 5, Episode 5
- 5) “Bad Blood” – Season 5, Episode 12
- 6) “Triangle” – Season 6, Episode 3
What are you waiting for? Get to binging!
Netflix announced today that the fan-favorite series “Devil May Cry” has been renewed for a third and final season following the recent debut of season two.
Created by “Castlevania” showrunner Adi Shankar, the animated adaptation of the popular Capcom game introduces a world where sinister forces seek to open a portal between the human and demon realms.
Caught in the middle is orphaned demon-hunter-for-hire Dante, unaware that the fate of the balance falls to him.
Across its two seasons, the series has appeared on the Netflix Global Top 10 for four weeks, with season one accumulating 21.7M views in 2025, and season two already off to a strong start, accumulating 6.4M views in just two weeks. All of which to say that the rapid renewal for the third and final season doesn’t come as a surprise.
“For those of you who have been paying attention to the episode names, I have been showing you the structure the entire time. This was always Dante’s Divine Comedy with guns and a red coat. Season 1 was Inferno. Season 2 was Purgatorio. Season 3 will be Paradiso. These three seasons make up ‘The Force Edge Saga.‘ Since its inception, ‘The Force Edge Saga‘ was designed as a movie trilogy disguised as a television series,” Shankar said of the announcement.
The voice cast for “Devil May Cry” Season 2 is led by Johnny Yong Bosch (“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers”) as Dante, Robbie Daymond (“Critical Role”) as Vergil, and Scout Taylor-Compton (Rob Zombie’s Halloween) as Lady.
Daniel Kurland wrote in his second season review for BD, “Winning chemistry between Dante and Vergil, as well as a narrative that isn’t afraid to put other characters in the spotlight, helps this season overcome some of the past season’s hurdles. This is a tight, economical season that doesn’t overstay its welcome, but part of the charm and impact is weakened the second time around. “
Created by Hideki Kamiya, the first Devil May Cry game was released in 2001. There are now five main games in addition to several reboots, spin-offs, special editions, and mobile games.
Catch up on the first two seasons now streaming on Netflix.
