Yeahhhhh. I mean, I think the appropriate level for setting expectations in terms of quality is to think of it as like an episode from seasons 7 through 9 that you haven't seen before. It's just the reality of the thing.

I do think it's overall pretty harmless, though. It's nice for more X-Files to exist, even bad X-Files.

This. I'm not going to get my hopes up that the new season will be as good as classic X-Files, but maybe there'll be one or two interesting new episodes. I hope they don't rely too heavily on the mythology arc, though. More standalone episodes would be great.

Any episode where Chris Carter tries to be deep is going to be bad.

TBH they should probably just ease off the conspiracy stuff altogether. That whole thing has changed so much since the 90s. Emphasize the weird and deemphasize the conspiracy. That's the route to passable/interesting new X-Files.

I agree. Unfortunately, Carter seems really invested in the conspiracy and mythology storylines. IMO, they were the weakest part of the original run, especially since it was clear Carter didn't plan ahead and the plot git hopelessly tangled.
