We’re trying to rewatch Invasion now that it’s concluded (or cancelled). First season is heavy going, lots of parallel plots that only slowly intertwine if at all, and not necessarily so much happening in every episode.

Next will be a For all mankind rewatch to be fully prepped for the upcoming season 5. Let’s see if we can time it so we can binge the new episodes without a week’s wait in between…

    I get where you are coming from, but I have too many good childhood memories of watching both shows with my family. I refuse to let some chodes ruin it for me. X-Files was the weekly thing to sit down and all watch together.

    Don’t let the dumb dumbs ruin things things you enjoy 💚

      No, sure. I have very fond memories of X-files too, from the original airing.

      But my latest attempt at a rewatch took most of a bottle of rum to sit through a handful of episodes. My liver just isn’t up for X-files anymore.

        I still watch a lot of X-Files. However, these days I skip all the arcs and prefer the episodic monster of the day episodes.
