x files was wild for its time. I watched it as it aired, when I was in high school. both sets of long divorced parents also watched it, despite loathing each other's cultural tastes in everything else. I remember even on family road trips, we would have to be off the road and checked into a motel before a new episode was coming on. otherwise, somebody would have to "tape it for us" lol.
I watched a few episodes of "the return" but it didn't grab me. guess I forgot my emotional investment after 20 years.
if you want to know what was "shocking" about it, check out the episode "Home". it aired a few seasons in and is a stand alone / monster of the week episode. people thought they knew what they were in for, but after it aired they got so many upset and angry calls it never aired again and is only available on DVDs and streaming. I forgot a lot of stuff from that show, but I am never forgetting that one lmao.
