1. Talk about a weird coincidence...
I've seen that episode several times, and the parallels never cease to amaze me.

2. Lone Gunmen was a really good show, and that episode

""Pilot episode "predicts" 9/11

In a foreshadowing of the September 11, 2001 attacks, subsequent conspiracy theories, and the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the plot of the March 4, 2001 pilot episode of the series depicts a secret U.S. government agency plotting to crash a Boeing 727 headed for Boston into the World Trade Center via remote control for the purpose of increasing the military defense budget and blaming the attack on foreign "tin-pot dictators" who are "begging to be smart-bombed." This episode aired in Australia less than two weeks before the 9/11 attacks, on August 30.""

6. I talked to "Langley" Last Year
Edited on Sun Sep-10-06 08:43 PM by AnnieBW
At a convention. Well, the guy who played Langley, the long-haired uber-geek with the Ramones shirt. He said that they totally freaked when they heard about 9/11, because of that episode. Of course, the actors and writers had no idea. I mean, I've joked about "The X-Files" being a documentary, but this was a little too close to home for a lot of them.

FYI, there was also an episode of "Seven Days" in 2000 that had a missile hitting the Pentagon.
