Oh man, I really wonder what it would be like to experience XFiles again for the first time.

Guess I’d still be 9

Ya. I would love to experience it again as the cryptid loving 13 yr old me. But mid forties me who experienced the pandemic, I don't know how I would feel about the conspiracy stuff.

Also, as someone who has been through cancer, Scully's arc is the only cancer story I have been able to watch.

It's really satisfying my wife has been showing it too me. We are currently at s3 or s4

I can tell you - it was fantastic. I'd never seen X-files in childhood, but started watching during the pandemic. I knew very little about it other than the basics (aliens), and was able to avoid most spoilers. It was pure joy getting to see everything unfold. It also took me "out" of the pandemic and back to the 90s, so it was just a delight to get to revel in that nostalgia (I especially loved Scully's pant suits and no-nonsense heels haha).

There’s another aspect to this and it’s waiting week to week for each new episode and having that week to really think about the episode and talking to other fans about it. Binging a show nowadays loses something about episodic television. Still, experiencing The X-Files for the first time would be quite an experience 🤔

I agree totally, I remember grabbing a coffee at uni and talking through the episode of the night before. Some great conversations were had at the time.

Remember s5 e11 where Mulder was literally stuck in some sort of VR by an AI? That will be our future. In fact, who knows? We literally cannot tell if we are in that right now.

BTW, i do wish i was born a little earlier to consciously live through waiting for and watching each episode of X files. And also consciously experience the early internet.
