I noticed the sign right before Scully was attacked that says 'Scully 403' - she would have been one of the victims of the 4th cycle of the 03 killer.

Oh, there was... but it was the XFs fandom that coined the terms shipper and shipping.

So there was, if anything, little precedent for shipping prior this show?? Insane!
Octavia
Did you know... Shippers and Shipping, for pairings, originated with The X-Files fandom. For Mulder & Scully, fans were divided (of course) from early on.... fans grouped themselves as Shippers (Relationshippers) vs NoRomos (No Romance). We owe it all to M&S and the X-Philes (fandom). What is so everyday in fandom now... began here.

Yay... our first Monster of the Week episode.... and it's creepy as hell.
