One time I watched "Bad Blood" and it made my terrible cramps go away. There is nothing this episode can't do. Maybe that's what I need to do tonight! I'll try anything. (Also, I seriously needed this post. Sucktastic day, ahoy!)
Mulder losing his shit and taking it out on the trashcan is hilarious, especially because Scully barely reacts. Haha God, I know. Someday I want to take my rage out on a trash can. This show gives me ridiculous life goals.
Aw, the subtext of this is that Scully just wants him to pay attention to her and treat her like she’s the center of his universe. Which she is. Aww, them. Why does she not know this by now? WHY? OH, THEM.
Scully obviously thinks that all guys are turned on by long, scholarly lists. But what she doesn’t realize is it’s only Mulder, who proposed marriage two episodes earlier when she was rambling on about Santeria and hexes and witchcraft. So it’s cute that in her version of events, even yokel-y Hartwell thinks it’s hot. You know, I think people often think that Scully’s version of events
( ... )
“Oh, he’ll come.” Mulder manages to over dramatize in his own tale, making himself look silly. That is such a Mulder-y thing to do. Good God, Vince Gilligan is brilliant.
He looks damn good in an undershirt, though, so she probably isn‘t complaining about his clothes on the floor. Oh God, I know. What do they call that thing, a wifebeater? Who am I kidding, I don't give a damn, it's just hot.
It makes me think of the line from “Parabiosis” about Mulder “fish[ing] a green pepper out of the neck of his T-shirt.” OMG, yes! I knew I couldn't be the only one who flashed on that!
Dude, his upper arms are delicious. Mmm, yes they are. I also have inexplicably strong love for this shot (I think it's the angle, or the hair, or the lips... or perhaps those eyelashes). IDEK.
I can't not see the hand with the stake that reaches into frame as he breaks down the chair. And I can't NOT laugh. I have to believe that was deliberate.
He chased him over “hill and dale.” Say what you will, but he’s kind of an awesome storyteller."I just gave myself
( ... )
OMG, yes! I knew I couldn't be the only one who flashed on that! Ha! I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only crazy one. "Fishing" is just the perfect verb to use.
Mitch Pileggi, ladies and gentlemen. His delivery of that line, coupled with the hilarious way he sort of... vaguely motions towards his neck... I lose my shit. I'm laughing right now, just thinking about it. I love Skinner in non-mytharc episodes, because he just exudes this feeling of: "My career was not supposed to be like this, guys. But oh well, I guess."
YES. YES, THIS. It's like, yes, yes, longing looks and blah blah blah. But they're still together 15 years later because they like each other.
Yay, I'm so glad it cheered you up! But UGH, I went to go watch that blooper, because I love it, but the sound on my computer is...not working. THANKS A LOT, computer. I think I need to start doing my computer-shopping homework so I'm ready when this one finally dies.

Oh no! Well, if it starts working again, I hope you can find that one. I just love it so much. I always lose it when David laughs especially (which is why that one from Small Potatoes where he collapses on top of Darin, laughing hysterically, is another one of my favorites).
Stupid LJ ate my first reply, waaah! So this one will have to be short and sweet, and just hit the highlights.
You know, I think people often think that Scully’s version of events is nearer the truth, but I’m pretty sure she’s as crazy as he is.
Absolutely! Let's face it, they're both nuts, not to mention nerdy as hell. In an adorable, MFEO way, of course. *g*
“No. Go ahead. Dana.” It’s kind of hot when he calls her that here.
Very much so. As is the height difference scene you mentioned. I guess all their interactions are sort of hot, really. ;)
A classy TWO CENT tip. Perhaps, like Dwight Schrute, Mulder doesn’t tip for anything he could do himself.Eek! You can't compare Mulder to Dwight! Although now that I think about it they both spent time in law enforcement, both wear those kind of wifebeater undershirts, and both love diminutive, hard-to-please females. LOL

Although now that I think about it they both spent time in law enforcement, both wear those kind of wifebeater undershirts, and both love diminutive, hard-to-please females. HEE! So true! I'd love to see a judge-off between Scully and Angela. I say it ends when Scully arches her brow and Angela spins around in a huff, ponytail flying.
Me too. I always envision this scene when I read that part in "Parabiosis", and vice versa. Like I told Zellie, I am more than pleased that it turns out I'm not the only weird one who does that!
I am SO glad Luke Wilson was able to take the part of Sheriff Hartwell. He is truly brilliant and hilarious. That accent! Sometimes I think his conversation about "Rain Man" is my favorite part of the episode.I love Luke Wilson. The accent! How he has to maneuver his mouth around those teeth! It just kills me how delighted he is, just thinking about

sigh, Bad Blood. You are good at picking your caps, but this is one where I totally knew the exact thing you were linking to before I clicked it, because I've seen it THAT many times.
If I hadn't just had about six delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies, this recap would have made my night. As it is... it's a tie. Homemade chocolate chip cookies!
This is one of those episodes where I'd be afraid to know how many times I've seen it. I think it's a "Plan 9 From Outer Space" type of situation. BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE ME SAD.
"No, seriously. You're telling me I'm going to have this guy's kid? This guy right here?"
I love this line! It made me giggle so hard I had to cover my mouth so I wouldn't wake any one up. This is just so funny, because I'm rewatching the series with my little brother (we're at the beginning of season 3) and every once in a while I'll find myself watching Scully thinking "five more seasons and you'll be having his baby..." So it's fun to hear someone else echoing my thoughts...
