      David Lynch was pretty smart in how he recognized when you start giving away resolutions to mysteries you end up killing the appeal of your show.
      As a viewer you feel like you want to find out what the answers are but onfe you get them you stop caring.
      Not that him knowing this helped much since he was forced to reveal his own show's central mystery too.
      But yeah, much like with Twin Peaks and who killed Laura, X-Files was kind of ruined by the reveals about the aliens, the hybrids, CSM and the government's involvememnt, Mulder's sister, etc.

        I think what Lynch got right that other media fails at is the necessary drip feed of information that keeps it from stringing the viewer along without ANY resolution. Other series religiously fail at proper exposition, leaving it as either an infodump that destroys the entire status quo or non-exposition that doesn't fundamentally move anything.

                I also think the big difference is that lynch is an occultist and storyteller while Abrams is just a israelite. Abrams can't present a metaphysical question worth a frick and definitely can't resolve it. Lunch answers the fricking question and we spend 30 years arguing what it meant.

    It was great when it was airing. I don't like most of it on a rewatch though. Kind of loses its magic when you've already seen it and when there's since been decades of storywriting built on top of what shows like that pioneered. It's an effect with watching older shows in general where they can seem kind of slow and corny after you've been exposed to many years of escalation upon that original formula.

    I wish that X-Files would have had a couple of long term / recurring villains that weren't alien related like Cigarette Smoking Man. Toombs, the elastic monster, made two appearances but other villains were typically just 'monsters of the week.'

    There were also a few very week episodes - and I'm not talking about the campy ones. I never had a problem with light hearted humor being occasionally inserted. My main criticism is of the 'serious and frightening episodes' that fell flat. For example, the reincarnated cop one never had any real menace in it. I remember watching it and thinking, 'if I was in charge I'd have an episode where Mulder discovers a clique of reincarnated Nazis who are fighting with an old Nazi doctor about his plan to clone Hitler. The leader of the reincarnated Nazis does not want that to happen because it will destroy his ability to be the Fuhrer.' Basically I'd have done a tribute episode that references the Boys From Brazil and maybe a bit of Indiana Jones.

    I also wanted a good sasquatch / bigfoot episode.

      I once wrote a postcard to Chris Carter telling him he should adapt this weird Japanese book called Parasite Eve into an episode. I remember looking up an address for Ten Thirteen Productions on the internet at school because we didn't have a computer at home. This would have been around 96 or 97. I wonder if he ever got it.

        I've never read that one but I thought about writing a book in which the villains are vampire like humans who derive their predatory nature & extended lifespan from rare parasitic worms found in Mayan ruins. I just don't have the time to do it and feel the vampire genre is oversaturated.

        My conception would be that the parasite infested 'vampires' would look more or less human, be mildly averse to sunlight, and need to consume blood due to the parasite being a haemophage (it feeds on blood ingested by the host).

          Being shot in widescreen doesn't mean it was even intended to be viewed that way. The HD cut of buffy is terrible because of that and a lot of other reasons. All these cut off foreheads is a big NO outside of certain shots.

    They should have dropped the alien shit when Doggett and Reyes stepped in. Their whole thing should have been some big occult conspiracy.

      Is there even alien shit? Do super soldiers count as alien?

        Yeah they're literally alien body snatchers. I don't know why the hell they called them something moronic like super soldiers.
