Ugh, just...the lighting, and the shadows, and the framing, and the color grading, and the film grain.. :chefs-kiss:

    Yeah I've been rewatching, I've been pretty impressed. Felix put it well when he said it was a show that knows that we live in a world where the deep state won.

    Obviously the main story arc eps are cool, but I mentioned this in a mega recently it's been cool just how many monster-of-the-week episodes are fantastic imaginings of the consequences of real programs the US government did and they talk about them. Stuff like MKULTRA, testing bioweapons on civilians, giving soldiers drugs in Vietnam. Like as goofy as the show is it's also a legitimate 👁 show about the deep state under thin metaphor.

    Really cool, way better than it deserves to be.

    And yeah Scully is fire holy guacamole
