I’ll start by recapping the basic vagaries of the story, or as much of it as I can understand. There were a couple of solid scenes and moments, a big retcon/twist (which I’ll get back to later) and just a general, nostalgic pleasantness of knowing there will be weekly episodes of The X-Files again. That probably has something to do with my lowered expectations. And it kind of was a shitshow, but I didn’t consider it terrible either. After the “My Struggle” episodes from season 10 (also written and directed by series creator Chris Carter), I braced myself for a real shitshow. It wasn’t the worst episode that The X-Files ever produced. Well, that wasn’t a great start to season 11, was it? Starring: David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Mitch Pileggi
