GBS Pledge Week

The title makes it sound like some kind of hot take but X-files was recognized as a good show at the time and in retrospect too. It does go down in quality after S5 and then once Mulder disappears but the earlier ones are classic. I liked the conspiracy stuff too well enough, at least until the movie.

For a while it was, but most people have come around. History has been kind to the X-Files because we've seen just how much worse a show can get about getting lost up the rear end in a top hat of its own mythology, losing the plot so badly that even megafans are disgusted, and then bungling the ending.


The X-Files slipped on banana peels so that Lost could belly-flop into a mud puddle so that Game of Thrones could swan-dive off the high board into an empty swimming pool.
