Did you ever watch
Twin Peaks, CookieJon?
Come to think of it, a Twin Peaks game would work too. But I digress...

Yeah I liked Twin Peaks (well the first season, anyway), but it was David Lynch, and you knew what you were in for from the start!
But I stuck with X-Files because there was the
promise of a great plot (with hinted-at conspiracies and subplots galore), and it went for YEARS AND YEARS, but I felt my faithfulness to that bloody show was NOT rewarded by the final episode - no denouement whatsoever!!

I'll play

I don't think you can vote to lynch Irre in this game?

Jimmy Lee Farnsworth: Erwin, admit that you are a sinner.
Fletch: Uh. Well, I've sinned. I didn't take any Polaroids or anything. But, yeah, I've sinned.
Jimmy Lee Farnsworth: The Lord forgives ya!
Fletch: Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. Amen. What? Other sins? Uh, I parked in a handicap spot on my way up here. Actually, on a handicap person. I told him I'd be back in five minutes, so that's not such a big deal.

I would sooooooooo love to play
but ... I'm seriously sleep deprived from you know what and I need to put in some hard yards and ground work with the preggies Mrs W for the next week to make up for being on the computer so much lately.
But ... I'd love to help with the clues HZ if you need any.
At first I was like Blah ... then I was like ... this show is ok .. then I was like OH for FUCK SAKE just get it on Moulder and Scully and have alien babies.

Oh I did like all the references to Moulder and his porn collection ... it was almost like all the references Jerry has to Superman in Seinfeld
Favourite episode,

I think it's really funny that the series had this running joke about his porn collection then Duchovny stars in another series where in plays a sex-obsessed character then he turns out to be a real life "sex addict."
@Animavore all right. I'll cross you off the list. let me know if you change your mind.

well, I'm not sure exactly when the game is going to start but that should probably be fine.

Hey Duchovny was also on the new episode of South Park last night along with Bill CLinton, Tiger Woods, Michael Douglas, Charlie Sheen, David Letterman and a few others last night when Butters and Kyle had to go to a clinic for sex addiction.

Yeah, I saw that! I was disappointed that his appearance was so brief. When I heard the episode was about sex addiction, I figured he and Tiger Woods would be at the center of the episode.

I would have loved to have seen that. Poor Butters, I wonder what he's going to grow up like....

Sorry heyzeus, I've played all the Mafia and Dune games lately, took a break by not playing Paranoia but then co-modded the latest game on ratskep.. so I'm exhausted and won't play this one.
I'm happy to be a consultant and help out
