The X Files had fans swooning over Mulder and Scullys relationship for 11 seasons. As for how many times they hooked up the truth is out there.
The X Files loomed large throughout the 90s and early 00s before reviving in 2016 for two seasons. It was a major win for sci fi with its influence still being felt today both in the genre and beyond it. And at the center of its alien conspiracies and monsters gone rogue storylines were Mulder and Scully the FBIs Most Unwanted agents. The duo became a hot topic for their drawn-out will they would not they dynamic fueled by underlying sexual tension in storylines and actors Gillian Anderson and David Duchovnys innate chemistry.
Any fan of The X Files knows the massive hype and anticipation surrounding Scully and Mulders relationship no matter if they were for or against the once controversial pairing. Audiences had to wait seven seasons for a kiss. After their relationship moved into official romantic territory the next big question on everyones minds was when they would hook up. While creator Chris Carter was famous for limiting the duos intimate moments he still threw them a bone on multiple occasions.
Fans expecting a steamy sex scene between Mulder and Scully would not find one in All Things or anywhere in The X Files for that matter. However the Season 7 episode opens with the implication that the agents spent the night together with Scully leaving a naked Mulder asleep in bed after dressing herself in his bathroom. Gillian Anderson wrote and directed the episode which is very much about fate and choices. According to IMDb Andersons original draft of All Things was too long and had no fourth act. This generated some revisions from Carter and executive producer Frank Spotnitz who included the ambiguous opening.
