I started to binge and then realized how spoiled modern prestige TV has made me. The show is a monster of the week procedural for the most part. When it does turn to the overarching plot, it is ridiculously incomprehensible and convoluted. Chris Carter only ever made it up as he went along with no real path or end

Episode One was weeeeird to me. I don’t know what it was, but Duchovny was robotic and his acting was stiff, as was his face. I thought two and three were amazing and I REALLY wish they had taken it in that direction. I will agree with episode 5. What was that? I honestly expected it to almost be smart enough to be a

I suspect The X-Files will be back (again) in a few years with some episodes that try to bring actual closure. (...) It’s hard to imagine the episodes would focus on anything but wrapping up the remaining loose ends of the series’ mythology...

I (thought) I loved the X Files, having watched it as a kid. I binged the original series on Netflix in preparation of the new episodes. I don’t know if it didn’t age well, wasn’t that good to begin with, or if my tastes as a kid sucked, but I didn’t really care for it compared to other “government investigating

This really makes me nervous for the Twin Peaks return

“Why would anyone actually pay attention to Tad O’Malley?”

Yeah, I got that impression as well. Except Mulder and Scully Babies had zero chemistry.

I’ve felt the need to defend every episode of the revival to some extent. Except for this one. It was really, really bad.

this miniseries just seemed like it was intended as a setup for a full length series about Einstein and Miller who end up replacing Mulder and Scully.

And yet Canadian Armed Forces and RCMP veterans who suffer from PTSD are prescribed cannabis and the government subsidizes their prescription.

Firm believer!

Good lord, if you thought this retarded bumbling abortion of an answer on Trump’s part was “playing the game well”, I sincerely hope you’re nowhere near weapons for the sake of our country’s security. At least not dangerous ones, which in your case I would assume includes scissors, or maybe rubber bands.

There will always be something a single person or small group does not know or does not know well

I did have a field day when Pelosi said that. That was horrible too. Just because people on both sides fuck up, doesn’t make it okay.

Don’t be That Guy™.

...This is not a game.

“So I smiled at her... but without using my eyes...

Of interest: The porn industry is quicker to drop someone over allegations of rape than the NFL or NCAA.

I don't know. You say that the woman didn't 'owe' Kim anything. This debate comes up a lot and the main deciding factor between people who think sleeping with a married man/woman is morally wrong and those that think it's no big deal seems to be whether or not someone thinks that we owe it to people that we've never
