About a month ago, my friend Joel and I decided we were going to rent and watch all nine seasons of The X-Files in preparation for the second movie, which comes out this Friday, July 25th.
Since The X-Files came out while I was in college, and since I spent most of my college career in class, at parties, or drunk and writing sad poems about my failed relationships, I didn’t have time to watch TV and didn’t appreciate the show’s brilliance until the late 90s, when I was living in Paris. Unbeknownst to me my father, a person I’d be hard-pressed to describe as “culturally savvy” (we’re talking about someone who was in his twenties in the 60s and owns not a single rock and roll album), had, while I wasn’t looking, developed a hardcore obsession for the show. Even my introduction to the show was X-Files style sketchy: we watched it on VHS tapes (yes, this was back in the day) that someone had brought over from the U.S. and adapted (details about this process were not provided) so that we could watch it on a French VCR. Somewhere along the way the color was lost. FYI: The X-Files can hold its own in black and white.
