X-files Hates Guns!

Mulder and Sculley from the X-Files both have guns. They are FBI agents, it only makes sense. But for some reason, they don't keep them nearby when in their homes or hotel rooms. Given that they often come under personal attack, you would think that they would keep them close. It's not like they tend not to pick them up for dramatic purposes. Quite the contrary, there is generally a 5 second scene where they pick it up off of a desk or couch. How strange.

On another note, they tend to butcher pseudo-science in that show. Like the time loss in the first episode. Mulder said that it was due to a physical difference in the time dimension. The reason that people lose time is that they don't remember 2 hours. Everyone knows that, why did they have to invent something? It's all silly anyway!

BTW, Sculley is cute.
