NYT Theme

(1/1)

Hi.

I finished this Tuesday puzzle from 2003 an hour ago and I still can't find the theme:

http://www.xwordinfo.com/Crossword?date=3/18/2003

ENDERMIC / HUMPHREY / MARSHLAND / SNAREDRUM ??
 
Any ideas?

worldofcrosswords:
I believe you have the theme entries incorrect. According to the cruciverb database, these are the theme entries:

* XFILES   Agent Mulder's show, with "The"
* XRAYS   Dental pictures
* TSHIRT   Garment that may have advertising
* TMEN   Some feds
* VSIX   Auto engine type
* DDAY   Make-or-break time
* TBARS   Skiers' lifts
* XRATED   Like porn
* FSTOPS   Shutterbugs' settingsMarya

Thanks -- I see it now.

It's a little unusual to have the longest entries NOT contain the theme.
