    can we just stop making pointless cash grab remakes

    But we’re all out of ideas, and we hate paying creative people a living wage.

    give me an xfiles lower decks instead

    Hmm, does that work when Mulder and Scully were already like the underdogs of the FBI?

    Or would it be like X-Files cleanup crew?

        Kind of true, and kind of a similar type of humor, though I think a true “Lower Decks” spirit would have to feature regular low-level office workers as the main characters, rather than the director/manager types.

            You are probably right, it’s so long ago that I watched X files, just remember Cancer Man and the scary silent Schwarzenegger looking dude.

            Tried rewatching some years ago but, it feels like Voyager where it’s best to lookup the good episodes before you start.
