Yes I watched them all so far.

I was a huge fan of the original series as well.

I have some mixed feelings on the reboot....
The horney toad / shape shifter episode was a throwback definitely!, I enjoyed it, however should a quirky episode like that be included if you are trying to re-boot the series? Only time will tell.

I actually enjoyed last weeks episode of the garbage man, that was a much better creature episode IMHO.

The fist 2 episodes were true to the original conspiracy series theme that was so popular on the original first 9 year run.

Have to see whats in store for the final episode to completely judge, but so far, because I'm biased and a previous fan, I give it a solid B for nostalgic entertainment.

My favorite writter for the X-files was Vince Gilligan
and he was mysteriously absent from this mini series/reboot. (Perhaps too busy with "Better call Saul" and also wrote on Breaking Bad)

I watched a Chris Carter interview and he talked about his desire to bring Dogget's character back but they just could not coordinate it.

He said ratings were good enough to do it again, negotiations with Duchovny and Anderson took 6 months in this go round.

He mentioned looking at doing a 8-12 episode for the next round.

Typical with the cliff hanger........
