The X-Files return. 2 brief seasons that felt like they were designed to make sure no one asks for any more of the show ever again.
Yeah, that one was just so so bad. For some reason, Chris Carter has completely lost the ability to write even a half-decent script. Also, the new seasons never account for the fact that conspiracy theorists have changed from leftist counter-culture nerds to right-wing nutjobs since the 90s.
I was watching it even though it was testing my patience a bit, and then they made an offhand remark about the moon landing being a conspiracy and that was the final straw that made me quit lol.
There are a couple of fantastic episodes sprinkled in there though. One is like a Black Mirror episode with Mulder and Scully being chased by a malevolent AI. There are a few that seem like they came straight out of the 90s monster of the week episodes too.
And they completely forgot about their kid and the end of the world story didn't they?
