   I've learned not to take the implications in trailers too seriously. Often   
   they play things up that are actually minor parts of the movie/episode and   
   make them seem like more than they are, in order to pander and hook certain   
   target audiences. There have been a number of episodes of 'Bones', for   
   example, where the trailer tried its mightiest to make it look like maybe   
   something would happen between Booth and Tempe, but in the actual episode it   
   turned out to be basically just another incidental case of their usual UST,   
   torn out of context to make it look more important than it really was.   
      
   And I never said Mulder and Scully didn't like each other, or even that they   
   aren't attracted to each other. I know if *I* worked that closely with a   
   beautiful person of the opposite sex, and went through some of the most   
   important events of my life side by side with her, I'd more likely than not   
   want to take the relationship in a romantic direction. (And as for just   
   plain sex, either Mulder or Scully would have to be blind and impotent not   
   to lust after the other. It's just a fact. Anyone with a pulse should find   
   them hot, and they themselves most probably have pulses.)   
      
   The issue was never whether or not they 'like' each other, but whether or   
   not it would be good, for the *show*, if they actually did get together. I'm   
   all for UST. I just don't think that going beyond UST to actual, onscreen   
   romantic involvement is healthy for the show. It distracts too much from the   
   deeper, more universal issues, conflicts, and themes that really make XF so   
   great. There are so many other shows out there willing to do romance for   
   you -- not to mention books, movies, songs, practically every kind of art or   
   entertainment there is. XF just plain fucking doesn't need it. There are so   
   many more original, more interesting, more artistically meaningful aspects   
   to it. If I wanted to see romantic shit, I'd watch 'Grey's Anatomy' or   
   'General Hospital'. It's just not what I watch *The X-Files* for.
