Television has reached remarkable places when it comes to serialized genre storytelling, but there'd be no Lost, Fringe, or Breaking Bad without The X-Files. Chris Carter's The X-Files premiered in '93 and went on to accrue 218 episodes, two feature films, a spin-off series, and a wealth of comics, video games, and supplemental media. The X-Files banks on a simple premise: two FBI agents -- one a skeptic and one a believer -- investigate odd events with paranormal undercurrents, which may or may not be related to an impending alien invasion.
