The special efx haven’t gotten more expensive, cameras haven’t risen in price, writers don’t seem to be demanding particular high prices, netflix takes anything that you can pitch without saying the word disney.

So what in the world happened? X-files was an amazing show and watching it you are not only entertained but you care about mulder and scully. The show is genuinely a great time. Why did they stop making them like this?

      The idea is to have you itching for the next fix. More money that way, you don’t cancel subscriptions, etc.

          Oh, wow… I’m really out of touch with how shows are “aired” nowadays.

          Whelp, better go back to the cave, have no intention of getting back on that saddle.

      I find myself enjoying episodic shows more than serials like star trek TNG, Voyager, House MD, etc. I tend to get bored with non episodic shows because with episodic ones I can look forward to watching a new story every episode. Keeps me interested.
