The X-Files

FBI Agents Mulder and Scully are responsible for the "X-Files," cases that involve paranormal activity and are deemed "unsolvable" by the rest of the agency. Mulder is convinced that there is something out there: the existence of alien life, a government cover-up, or both. Scully is brought in as a foil to the eccentric Mulder to keep in check his conspiracy theories. However, the events that they witness together make it pretty difficult for Scully to remain a skeptic.

Seinfeld

Jerry Seinfeld lives in Manhattan, in an apartment across the hall from Kramer. (No first name necessary; everyone just calls him Kramer.) Kramer loves to pop in repeatedly, and quite dramatically, because Jerry's apartment is much cleaner and better-equipped than his own. Besides Kramer, Jerry spends much of his time with his best friend George Costanza—the two of them attended John F. Kennedy High School together—and his one-time girlfriend Elaine Benes.
