Dana Scully is an FBI Special Agent and one of the main characters from the drama series The X-Files. She is played by Gillian Anderson.

On The X-Files, Scully is partnered with Special Agent Fox Mulder. They work out of a cramped basement office at FBI headquarters, investigating unsolved cases labeled "X-Files". In contrast to Fox Mulder's credulous "believer" character, Scully is the skeptic, choosing to base her beliefs on what science can prove.

In The Simpsons, Mulder and Scully appear in the crossover episode "The Springfield Files." Homer believes he has seen an alien, so Mulder and Scully come to Springfield to investigate. They interview Homer and put him through a series of medical tests. When Mulder questions why Scully has Homer running on a treadmill in his underwear, Scully replies that she "just thought he could stand to lose a little weight." They eventually determine that Homer was crazy.

Scully describes the Springfield investigation as their worst mission ever, but later reappears wearing a "Homer is a Dope" T-Shirt.

Trivia

  • Former executive producer Mike Scully claims that he used to get a lot of fan mail that was sent to the Fox network addressed to Dana Scully.
