X-Files Goodness

For the last year or so I've been buying and watching all 9 seasons of 'The X-Files'. I only got into the show while it aired in the 6th season or so. It is nice to go back and watch how it all started. The show started in 1993, almost 13 years ago, hard to imagine. Besides making David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson household names there have been many many future stars who have had guest spots in the first 3 seasons alone. I decided to try and locate them all starting with the most 'recent' episode I caught today "Hell Money" (Season 3). Lucy Lui had a small part as the sickly daughter of an immigrant who is selling parts of his body to make money.

The sheer number of extremely talented people who were on this show just goes to show you the talent behind the casting directors during the series run. The X-Files was, even when the show was found meandering towards the end of its run, a well written, well cast series. This list just goes to prove it!
