If these were the first shows the series of would have quickly been killed. Nothing gripping, no emotion or science fiction aspects. Characters are flat and there is no reason to care what happens to them. Found myself watching from habit, not any actual interest.

They're back! So far so good. Great to see Mulder and Scully together again. The writing is a bit cheesy in episode 1 but I guess it's to introduce the characters to new watchers. Can't wait for the rest of the season!
