There was zero closure in the x files. Carter never really wrote beyond individual seasons and had no plans to end it.

However, 75% of x files is individual episodes. I' never watched the x files for the alien arch. If you get through it on DVD then I understand your disappointment, but week to week there wasn't a better show on television for 4 years. Plus they had to write around duchovny leavin the show and that made the overall story get even crazier and didn't allow time for then to properly close out the Samantha mystery.

Just because it was on TV during a fairly slow time in TV history doesn't automatically promote the show either.

X-Files was a good show, it's actually the reason I love sci fi to this day.. it also taught me to get pissed at storytelling that didn't conclude or make sense.

The x-files is also a product of it's own undoing, because it was on American TV, it probably went 3-4 more seasons than it should have, kinda like how LOST went a few to many seasons as well, if it sells - they sell it, even if they run out of material.

Heck, millenium was better than fringe. Oh yes I did.

I imagine this comes down to age. First run xfiles fans will say xfiles. Younguns will say fringe.
