Hey no argument there oREAVERo.

In most cases, nothing is better than the original. But it was still a good enough series that got the shaft from FOX.

Man, and to think at one time, FOX was the only network I watched...what sad little kings of a sad little hill...

BWAH!

I went to one of those. Full of Comp Scis and engineers. Guy to girl ratio was like 8:1.
All we did was geeky stuff, but man, it was fun.

I'd like to say that the Lone Gunmen, a spinoff that held great premise, was marred by horrible writing.

It was a show that needed to go.

If only it had been as well written as the episodes of X-Files where the Lone Gunmen appeared, it might have had a chance.

(I still remember fondly the episode that revealed the first meeting between Mulder and the Lone Gunmen. It made me laugh often, with gestures as simple as Mulder pulling out a giant sized cellphone.)

I just mentioned this to someone the other day! I too had hoped the Lone Gunmen would last. Alas, I only have the memories of their work on X-Files.

Exact same here, only it's 7:1 ratio. Too much fun - I take advantage of the boys all the time, heehee.
