--- Quote from: pbj on February 03, 2016, 11:09:18 am ---So it gets better? Cause I watched the first episode (On Demand, kthx Fox for screwing up the DVR schedule) and even my space opera fan friends were bored by it 20 minutes into it. --- End quote --- I thought the second episode was better than the first, which I wasn't all that impressed with. It's network primetime TV, so I don't have HBO level expectations. The third episode is goofy and in a different style, but was pretty entertaining. You could skip it though and won't miss anything in the overall story arc. |

Like "hey look at this guy in a rubber suit!" --- End quote --- I thought it was part of the joke. I mean, look at the title of the episode. |

Episode 3 is a complete deconstruction of the X-Files and procedural crime dramas in general. It was perfect and wonderful in it's purposeful cheesiness. While I'll admit that the first episode was a little off, 2 and 3 were classic X-Files. If you didn't enjoy them then you've got to admit to yourself that you just never liked the X-Files to begin with because those scripts, modern technology nods aside, could have been pulled from season 6 of the show they were so spot on. |
