So they're rebooting the X-files. I loved the original, so I wish them well, but I wonder how you remake a show like that amid this cultural moment we're in?

How do you do a show about a pair of underdog FBI agents investigating a sinister conspiracy by the government when the people in charge of the government now believe in even crazier conspiracies than the show ever explored?

@h2onolan Conspiracies were fun to think about back then. It's not fun anymore

@MLE_online i would like a show where Dana and Fox are salty underground railroad types, breaking fascism with alien tech and doing hydroponics

@h2onolan That's a fun premise, but that's more like one battle after another than the x files
