Ugh, just...the lighting, and the shadows, and the framing, and the color grading, and the film grain.. :chefs-kiss:
I recently rewatched the entire series and yes it is very good.
One of my favorite details is the fact that Scully consistently practices proper trigger discipline while Mulder does not.
Honestly even the seasons without Mulder are better than I remember since the first time around I was just mad that Duchovny was absent.
Lol yeah, Mulder even muzzle sweeps Scully occasionally. He may be a good investigator, but how he passed his gun courses at the academy is beyond me.

That's pretty on brand actually
Yeah I've been rewatching, I've been pretty impressed. Felix put it well when he said it was a show that knows that we live in a world where the deep state won.
Obviously the main story arc eps are cool, but I mentioned this in a mega recently it's been cool just how many monster-of-the-week episodes are fantastic imaginings of the consequences of real programs the US government did and they talk about them. Stuff like MKULTRA, testing bioweapons on civilians, giving soldiers drugs in Vietnam. Like as goofy as the show is it's also a legitimate ๐ show about the deep state under thin metaphor.
Really cool, way better than it deserves to be.
And yeah Scully is fire holy guacamole
