Rewatching with my teen

My 14 year old asked me a few weeks ago if I’d heard of the X-Files. I like stared at him for a moment like totally unaware of what to say and why he was asking me this question.

He said the guy who did Black Panther was rebooting the series and because it was from the 90s he wanted to know if I watched the original series.

The show was a huge part of my teenage years. I looked up to agent Scully, but after the mythology episodes in season 11 I swore I’d never watch another episode again. And I haven’t until my 14 year old asked me about it.

We’re watching together and it’s been really great. I’ve forgotten so much about the show in the decade or so since I left it. He asked me today how it ends … Ugggggghhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!

We’re in season one, I figure I have some time before I have to break the news to him, right?
