I'm glad it came back, as I was too young to see the original run, and became fun when the second movie came. So it was fun to be in the X-Files community with new episodes. Like you, I think leaving it be is fine.
Maybe one day, they'll do a spin-off with brand new agents, and let Mulder play the Deep Throat/X character. Otherwise, I feel like the show is better off being done.

Yeah, I hate that his story was left open.

Yeah, that was very annoying. I didn't mind lots of episodes in the revival run, but that is the only thing that I didn't like.

A few episodes of The X Files had episodes with pandemics in it and disasters with a virus, just made me think of our current world at the moment.

I do remember a few of those too. The one with the bugs, and or the one with that virus that made people blow up or something. I forgot the episodes.

Thankfully,, Covid-19 is nowhere near as lethal as those.

Those were some of the good Monster Of The Week episodes.

They were some fun episodes, so many favourites. I do like some of the earlier alien based episodes, not the later ones. And I am a big fan of the first movie.

The whole conspiracy storyline got bogged down later on. Chris Carter clearly had no idea what to do with it.

Yeah, the conspiracy story came to an actual conclusion in the movie/season 6, after that they really went nowhere. I still think they did a decent job with it until season 6, since it wrapped up the syndicate stories, and actually referenced all the past episodes. It was when they started a new arc in season 7 with it, that it just wasn't that good no more.

Chris Carter should have quit while he was ahead.

I agree. The conspiracy ended with Two Fathers and One Son. Where Smoking Man escaped being killed by the rebel aliens eho killed his entire team.
They should have had Mulders sister REALLY return in season 7. I hated how she was dead all along. Which made no sense.

Yeah, that had an ending, and tied up stuff somewhat, after S6, it just went nowhere. I remember Smoking Man saw his people about to be wiped out, and he made a run for it. LOL Yeah, and the show clearly stated she was alive yet then suddenly she was dead the whole time. It's too bad, some fan theories, had Monica Reyes as Mulder's sister, under a new name and family. Some wished when Mulder was abducted, that his sister was the one waiting for him on the ship with the others.
