yo keep making television shows forever, Gillian Anderson. Dana Scully in The X-Files Lets just get this way out of the way, shall we? Not because Andersons turn as Agent Dana Scully over the course of 11 seasons (and counting?) Dana Katherine Scully is more than a TV character.

In reality, Lafayette and Hamiltons friendship began a little later than the 1776 meet-and-greet at the bar inHamilton. Well, that and because Lafayette and his wife had deep roots in French aristocracy....
