X-files was great for the first couple of seasons but then it went downhill, fast. I watched it start to finish twice, including fillers, and I gotta tell ya, past the first 2-3 seasons it really ain’t that great a show. I remember playing the live action video game that was split across several cd’s. that one was real nice. sometimes i still rewatch let’s plays on youtube about it.

I feel like most people who are nostalgic about X-files, me included. Are only nostalgic about the vibe it gives you in the beginning.

Yeah, all my friends watched it when it was new. After an episode played we would talk about it the next day.

Im pretty sure none of us saw the final few seasons, with it moving to a late night time slot and noone caring.

I think the big mistake the X-Files made was trying to solve its own lore. The mystery was what made the show work. The more it explained, the less interesting it became.
