Getting Back Together with the X: Reactions to the X-Files Miniseries – Episode 1, “My Struggle”

Almost 14 years after it ended its original run, The X-Files is returning to the small screen with a six-episode miniseries this winter. To welcome it back, Patches and I will be writing responses to each episode. Here’s the hook: I am a pretty hardcore X-Files fan and Patches hasn’t seen a single episode of the show. How we’ll respond is anyone’s guess, but as always: The Truth is Out There.
