Tara Ariano March 25, 2014 Share March 25, 2014 Or so Alex Zeidel has portmanteaued them in his lovely post about their friendship! Link to comment
Kromm March 29, 2014 Share March 29, 2014 They really do kind of operate almost as one character, don't they? I see them kind of in the same light as Kevin, or Stanley, in the Office. As hilarious "furniture" in the background for us. We don't really need to know anything more about them, other than the odd things which are funny. Link to comment
Danny Franks March 30, 2014 Share March 30, 2014 My favourite Scitchcock moments are actually in an episode where they shine (very briefly) individually. In The Vulture, I laughed my arse off at Scully volunteering to go and buy a hairdryer from a drug store that was "four blocks away", and Jake lamenting that it might take him weeks. Then we see Scully jog to the end of the alley, and stop, gasping for breath. Then there's Hitchcock in the apartment, coming up with the 'amazing' theory that the murder weapon was still in the body, and that's why it hadn't been found. He looked so proud of himself for thinking of it too. Apart from that, I really enjoy their flashback scenes, just for the ugly suits, and the confirmation that they were always crazy and ineffective. These two work for me as cartoonish caricatures because the show never tries to make it seem like they should be considered more, like they do with Gina. 1 Link to comment
joshleejosh March 31, 2014 Share March 31, 2014 Their flashbacks are amazing (as are everyone's). I got a kick out of the fact that they're capable of being tough, sharp detectives, but only when it comes to finding secret bathrooms. 1 Link to comment
VCRTracking October 10, 2014 Share October 10, 2014 (edited) I am now watching a CHiPs rerun where Dirk Blocker(Hitchcock) is playing one of a bunch of frat boys who harass Officers Ponch and Jon in revenge for busting them for pot possession. Endangering lives on the freeway, Hitchcock you should be ashamed! Edited October 10, 2014 by VCRTracking 2 Link to comment
Traveller519 October 10, 2014 Share October 10, 2014 I believe it was Patton Oswalt who referred to them as ScullCock on twitter last year. Link to comment
Driad February 17, 2016 Share February 17, 2016 Does anyone have a good mnemonic for which is which? One has hair on top; if that were Hitchcock it would work (H for Hitchcock, H for hair) but it's Scully. Guess i can either remember it's backwards or decide it doesn't matter. Link to comment
formerlyfreedom February 17, 2016 Share February 17, 2016 Scully's skull is covered? 1 Link to comment
