Do you need cable for that? I am thinking of killing my cable service, but would miss a few shows. We currently have netflix.

No, not for the Fox app. But it shows commercials just like you'd see on TV.

Awesome! Thanks. I'll get Roku.

You should. The Roku is awesome. I mostly use it for NetFlix, but also for Amazon Prime, Hulu, and this Fox deal. I also use it for ESPN and NBC Sports, because I have my parent's Xfinity login info.

There better be a new season or a fucking movie or something. I'm so pissed with the ending.

Not sure how I feel about it. If they make us wait for 5 years for the next season, it would piss me off. If they come out with it soon, I'm ok.

So, is no one excited for the new season? I thought the season premiere was over the top at times and wonder if the rest of the season will be like this, but I'm just gonna enjoy the series for what it is at this point. I thought it was pretty funny when Fox confronted Skinner at the end of the episode for smelling like cigarettes. :lolz:

No. Nobody else is excited for it. In the entire world.

You're the only one, man.

It's on the DVR for eventual consumption. I wasn't wowed by the mini series, but it didn't turn me off entirely either. I hope those two new agents die in a fire though.

I liked it just fine. Some of you guys have expectations that are way too high. It's a fucking TV show, for cripes sake.

It was also a TV show back when it didn't suck.

Discovery channel has been airing the original series now that the new season started. Watching some of those episodes reminds me of why I came to like this show, and IMO, the original series still holds up well today (the music, cinematography, writing). Today, they showed the episode with that mutant guy that fits in vents and hibernates after eating livers. Great show. Staple of the 90s for me.

I was excited for it until I saw the first episode. Straight terrible. /sigh

This. I couldn’t sit comfortably through the first episode, it was 2 out of 5. I’m done with it. I enjoyed the previous comeback season but with the amount of excellent TV out there I’m not wasting my time with this sellout trash.

And Gillian Anderson is out... because the show is shit.

You should watch this week's episode for a good laugh. It's like the comedic episode they did last season in spirit and is worth watching. The new X-Files is best when it doesn't take itself seriously.

I loved the book with the answers to everything. Their goofball episodes like this are hit and miss but the last ten minutes brought it all together.
