why can't classics stay classic? SMH

Rewatch the original instead of wasting your time on a reboot. There are lots of IPs out there that were only given 1 series, try making them a success, instead of turning a success into a failure!

The Malcom X Files.

Are you kidding me!!!??? Another goddamn reboot!!!??? Can these people create anything original? Ever. I know what's gonna happen. It's gonna suck just like all the garbage reboots that came before.

I think it's great that you can see the future. Here's an idea for your next video: the winning numbers of next week's lottery!

The are trying to destroy our most popular TV series like they destroy Doctor Who

Great video and points. I have a feeling this is going to be like the Roswell reboot-how they ruin the paranormal aspects, change characters, and everything else to something unrecognizable. They have ruined X files twice. The original show was well written, acted, and dealt with a lot of different issues in a tasteful manner. It's still one of my favorite paranormal shows because I love how the episodes are based on real events and were inspired by different folklore and horror movies.

They will need 2 ingredients to make this work: (1) Chris Carter, (2) Vancouver Rain.

I know some would still whine about this but even a sequel series with mulder and scully in smaller roles as mentors to new characters would be better than straight up rebooting

A detective agency. That also looks at 'odd' things. That's Charles L Grants Black Oak series. Could base it on that. 😊😊😊😊

I feel like all these reboots kind of ruin the originals. If the reboots suck (which they usually do) and some time later you tell someone that you like [show}, people are like "how did you like that garbage!?" because they only know the reboot and think that's the original.

Without Mulder and Sculley and Chris Carter it will not work. And I won't be watching it.

ill try it, but ik nothing will beat the original like all good things

Enjoyed your video, largely good points, but bringing up Star Trek by comparison somewhat weakens your argument of 'can't do X Files without Mulder and Scully'. You know who thought you couldn't and shouldn't ever do Star Trek without Kirk and Spock? Every Star Trek fan ever until a new show proved them wrong.

X files fans, you demanded it. An X files reboot with an all black cast.

Here's a thought... set the show in the X-Files universe, but don't make it about Mulder and Scully. Let's say a group of KZfaqrs start seeing strange things going on, and they decide to start looking into these X file type cases. A whole new cast, nobody has to get race or gender changed (Fox Mulder won't be a half-black, half-Filipino bisexual dwarf amputee woman with scoliosis, just to check as many boxes as possible). The KZfaqrs get fed information from somebody mysterious, and they investigate strange phenomenon and occurrences - sometimes at the same time Mulder and Scully are on the case. The show can have cameos from the original cast, but not be dependent on them. Strange stuff can happen, somebody in the shadows is pulling their strings, mysteries get solved (or more likely more questions get unanswered), and the studio doesn't have to automatically put people off by rebooting a show that most people would not want to see rebooted. This idea was actually a plot to a TV show called "Hollyweird" that was going to come out some time ago, but the network kept screwing with it until the creator, Shaun Cassidy (yes, the actual '70s teen bubblegum pop singer) quit the show and it fell apart. They could reuse the generic idea and set it within the X-Files universe and it could work without paving over the original show with a weak, woke, pale imitation.

it's prob. gonna be as successful as all those Pretty Little Liars reboots, remember those ...... no! ..... yup , that the point. Also, how long did the recent Twilight Zone reboot lasted?.

It is going to be a woke disaster.

Hopefully not like when they re-booted 'MacGyver' and decided to change it up by making him a narcissistic, arrogant, cynical a**hole who belittles the boy scouts. There's an attractive central character for you.

Okay, I feel like a broken record because I have to explain this a million times: *Intellectual properties.* Disney bought the rights to it. It doesn't necessarily mean they keep it forever and ever. To keep it in their vault, they have to *do* something with it. Otherwise, the license for that specific property is held to the highest bidder. Also, companies nowadays don't want to gamble on something new and original if they can avoid it (nevermind that, once upon a time, said Intellectual property was once created new and original). Companies will most likely gamble on something that has a built-in fanbase so they can go to their investors and say property X, Y, and Z turned out profit for years A, B, and C. This is a main reason why we have reboots, prequels, sequels, remakes, based-off-books/comic-books/toys/etc. The faster you understand all of that, the faster you can stop asking these questions.

I don't care much about a movie about Elon Musk and tweets that are secretly cognito hazards.

you'll fail

Lemme guess. Mulder is black now.

Everyone's gonna be black.
