THE X-FILES
Is Mulder Really Dead?, Season 4
The X-Files is one of those rare series that boasts several memorable season finales. But it was the emotional cliffhanger during the height of the show's popularity in the fourth season that sent fans reeling — trying, much like the revered duo of special agents, to separate the truth from the lies. Was Fox Mulder's quest a hoax from the get-go, and what would become of his unfailingly loyal, cancer-stricken partner? Was Mulder really dead, and if not, was Scully privy to his faked suicide scheme? Fans wanted to believe that the truth was out there, but that didn't make the wait for answers over the summer hiatus any less painful. —Gretchen Hansen
