Millennium had some pretty good episodes among the "yet another serial killer who is boring as poo poo" ones. Also the one where they decided nobody was watching and weren't going to get renewed anyway so they shot a psychedelic freakout backed by Patti Smith's "Horses". All ten minutes of the song which is pretty avante garde as it is.

I had forgotten what a televised abortion that show was. Whip, I wouldn't say they aged super well, but compared to everything else from the 90s that isn't Heat, Silence of the Lambs or another movie you already know the name of, the X-Files are head and shoulders above.

The Jose Chung sequel and demon coffee shop episodes were gold too. On par with Postmodern Prometheus for "gently caress everything, we just gonna have fun"

seriously it was super lovely at times, but when they realized they had nothing to live for the writers went balls to the wall and put out some really cool episodes.

the demon coffee shop episodes were loving rad as hell and I wish it was way more of that and less of the boring rear end serial killers

also the 2nd move was pretty lovely if you think of it as anything more than "hey a longer than usual x-file episode done for shits and giggles"

Seeing it for the first time at 30 as compared to 7 is probably going to take some shine off of it, but it's still got that perfect level of loving nostalgia to be worth the watch. It's not a perfect movie, but it's a near perfect fantasy of youth
