natalie chaidez: the “x” factor
December 15, 2008 – 12:31 pm
Oh X-Files, how do we writers adore you? Let us count the ways. Number one: the seamless melding of sci-fi and procedural plot, which has rendered oh-so-many inferior imitators. Number two: the awesome flash-light illuminated action sequences through spooky/cool Canadian locations. Who knew Vancouver had such topographical diversity? And number three: one of the most iconic sci-fi ships of all-time, between a laconic porn-loving crusader for Truth and his red-headed, trench-coated doubting Thomas of a partner… oh Mulder and Scully. Catch monsters! Uncover alien conspiracies! Exchange witty quips and amazing scientific snippets during playful and sexually-charged scenes in low-rent motel rooms! Oh X-Files… <3 <3 <3 My latest SCC episode, Earthlings Welcome Here, is an homage to one of the writers’ room’s all-time favorite shows. I’m not claiming it’s as good as Chris Carter and co’s best eps, and no Duchnovy of course (sigh…), but it’s our humble peek into UFO sub-culture, and its surprising intersection with Killer Robots From the Future.
I began the process of writing the script, as I often do, by doing some real life research. Wanting to know more about “Experiencers,” as those who have encountered E.T.’s call themselves, I attended a meeting of a group known as M.U.F.O.N. It was at this meeting, held in the sanctuary of a church in Studio City, CA that I learned about the process of hypno-therapy to recall lost or repressed memories. It was a fascinating event, and I incorporated my findings into the show.
I’m sure many of you will be wondering exactly what Sarah finds at the end of her quest for the three-dots. That answer — at least part of it -– will be revealed by the end of Earthlings. How are aliens and Terminators connected? Tune in tonight (and on Fridays at 8PM starting February in 2009).
The Truth is… well, you know the rest…
