Premieres tonight @ 9:00pm CST. I was a fan of the show back in it's hay day, curious to see how the reboot turns out.
Anyone else going to watch?

Yep
I'm currently rewatching the X Files on Netflix right now so I'll watch that first then the reboot.
I've forgotten a lot of the first early seasons of this show so it's been a treat.
Fucking Duchovny has not aged well at all. His face seems melted. :lol
Gillian in the other hand: Would bang :bobo

Gillian got way hotter. Which is unusual for a redhead. Other than Julianne Moore it doesn't really happen.

What's everyone's favorites? I still like the roach one. But also the one that had the giant underground mushroom thing. And the one where Fox got picked up by UFO. So many.
Had a lot of hope for Millennium but lost interest. That first episode though...with the eyes sewn shut.

I really liked the "Home" episode from season 2 with the inbred family on the farm. Creeped me out as a kid.

Oh yeah. Man so many good episodes. That one was messed up.
The one where there is a cult where they worship snakes and shit and Scully gets kidnap or some shit.
There are so many I cant remember.

I don't agree that she got hotter. She is attractive and still a good actor but when she was in her late 20's her looks were a perfect 10.
Funnily enough, Watchmojo compiled a top 10 best episode list.

Forgot about the freak incest family one. That one was gory as fuck for a normal tv show.

Don't forget the movie also; X-Files: I want to Believe. The series was 1993 to 2002. The movie was 2008.
I have them all on DVD.

It wasn't bad. Duchovny/Anderson haven't missed a beat chemistry-wise, but I'm not sure how I feel about the story. We'll see how it develops.

I'm not liking the story. I'm sure the 911 truthers like Cosmoron will love it!

Earlier time too. I made sure of the time so it didn't conflict with the game.

Fucking stupid Fox deciding to broadcast the opener after a football game :lol , stupid postgame shit etc
Some people programmed their DVR, knowing it was after a football game and complained they didn't have the last 15 minutes
DUH :lol

The original version of this show came out when I was a child but I managed to catch up on all the episodes a few years ago. Amazing show, I was so happy to hear the theme song and see Mulder, Scully, Skinner and the Smoking man again. I still have a problem with them killing off Mr. X's character though. Every time X made an appearance it seemed the intensity of the show would pick up significantly. My favorite scene in the show was Mr. X's fight with Skinner in the elevator. Classic scene right there.
"I've killed men for far less." - X
"You pull that trigger and you'll be killing two men." - Skinner

Not the 1st time they go with the "OKC freaks of the week" theme
Those kids had crazy powers though
:lol RIP Doug Savant
Episode 2 really had that classic X-Files feel

Hulu-ing the first episode.
The eXposition Files. Probably won't stick with it. I've forgotten any questions I wanted answered long ago. Freak-of-the-week, Night Stalker type episodes lasted with me longer.

My wife was a big fan of the original when she was a kid and says she loves this reboot. I'm thinking about watching my first episode of this show to see what it's about.
I'm humiliated to say that I was talked into watching Doctor Who recently and I actually loved it....I see this being similar.
