The Emmys are out there: ‘The X-Files’ 2018 campaigns David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson and which 3 guest stars?

sunshinetoday:

Leads David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are of course back on the Emmy ballot as FBI Special Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. Duchovny previously earned two nominations (1997-98) for the original run of “The X-Files,” while Anderson received four bids (1996-99) and won the 1998 Emmy for Best Drama Actress. This time around they’re joined by three of this season’s standout guest stars: Karin Konoval (“Plus One”), Haley Joel Osment(“Kitten”) and Fiona Vroom (“Nothing Lasts Forever”).

The Emmys are out there: ‘The X-Files’ 2018 campaigns David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson and which 3 guest stars?

Didn’t Gillian say that she adopted her punk persona when she was dating a guy who was a punk. The more I think about it, the more it seems that G has no persona of her own, or she doesn’t let it show. People who claim she’s a punk, a lesbian, etc, I think just see what they want to see. Maybe she’s closer to her true self when she’s with David. That’s why with him she looks happier and more relaxed.

I think she was a punk way before she dated that guy back then. When I said she’s a punk, I’m not talking about hairstyle and piercings.
Normally, she’s rebellious, she doesn’t care about the codes, she fights for those who can’t fight for themselves and she indeed does whatever the fuck she wants but in a good and fair way. She doesn’t pretend to someone else because it suits her or people around her more. She swears on national tv and she goes to award shows in bathrobes and trash-bag dresses. She doesn’t care about the conventions. That’s the punky Gillian Anderson I fell in love with and that’s the one I’m waiting for her to get back to because I feel like this is the real Gillian Anderson, with or without David.

I’m new and I need to ask: are we hating PM because he isn’t David or if it was something else would we like him (or her)?

Oh no, that’s just Him. On my part, at least. The guy is supposed to be everything she’s fighting against. A misogynistic elitist spoiled white Londoner navigating in elitist powerful white males circles. He writes about The Queen that he keeps despising in interviews, he’s insecure, he makes fun of his own kids and wife in interviews, he’s kinky but in a wrong and kinda disgusting way and he can’t even pretend to be happy when other shows (better and more important shows) win against him.

Gillian Anderson is a punk. She may want to appear as someone else lately, try to build herself a new persona for whatever reason, she will always be a punk deep down. The way I see this relationship, is that it’s a phase. She does that. She has phases. And when she gets bored trying to be someone she isn’t, she moves on. She will move on again, at some point. There must be something in his personality that she enjoys, I mean the guy may have a few qualities! But it’s concerning that none of us are able to see them.
We want Gillovny to be together, but I don’t think we ever were so upset about her previous relationships, except maybe for Hubby numero dos, for reasons. Rodney was hot, and honestly, I shipped them. Mark seemed to be the nicest man on Earth, he seemed protective and I think he did a lot of good to her on many levels. But Peter Morgan… man! This guy is something else! I don’t like him and I never will!

Hey JHH! I’ve seen many LGBT people being upset by G’s rainbow purse and you haven’t said anything about it so I wanted to ask your opinion on it :)

You’re actually the first anon coming to be on this subject, which is why I didn’t say anything and also because I don’t feel comfortable throwing my opinion on this. As everyone else with a brain, I’m supportive of the LGBT community, but I’m not part of it, so I’d rather sit back and let those people express their feelings. I’ve been reading about that too, I guess their concerns are legitimate. I’m sure Gillian wanted everything but upset this community and she wanted to show support, but again, as a lot of things that she’s doing lately, she did it wrong and it sounded fake.
I’m not sure it’s my place to add anything on this subject, except that maybe, she really should consider changing her PR team because they never fail to make mistakes in every situation.

I’m still struggling to understand what Gillian tries to achieve with all her appearances at his events. This is not about supporting her couple (they hardly interact with each other.) She seems to be eager to be related to The Crown, a series which is antithetical to the feminism The Handmaid’s Tale or Big Little Lies represent. I don’t get it.

I don’t really get it either, to be honest. Beside real dedication to her boyfriend, I have no idea what that is. She never really was into those kind of events before PM, and now she’s doing them all without even looking like she’s enjoying herself. Seems a bit ridiculous to me to do all this trip and spend hours in makeup and dressing and leaving before the end of the ceremony. I don’t get why she’s doing all that, it’s not even like she was going there to have some alone time with her boyfriend, she probably just flew in and out. She may have a good reason, though, but I don’t know what it is.

Where was PM? Is there some photo of them together? Did they walk the RC? Did they touch?thank you for Emmy sum up:)

Haha! I wish I could sum up, but I’m just catching up this morning. They did walk the red carpet next to one another, but weren’t photographed together. From what I understand, he lost, of course, and as soon as he lost, Gillian left and never came back. He stayed alone and refused to stand up when everyone was applauding The Handmaid’s Tale (which, if you haven’t watched it, is an amazing and very important series!).

That’s all I have for the highlight now, I’ve seen no pics of them together so far, except a screenshot of his reaction when he looses and Gillian was sitting next to him, and a picture of her with him lurking in the background.
It’s not as bad as I thought it would be, actually.
