If this were a brand new pilot, it would have been quite meh. As the continuation of a favorite show from my pre-teen and teen years, it'll keep me watching.
Too many cliche notes, weird and nonsensical turns (Scully in the back of the limo sipping champagne?), moving too fast due to only 6 episodes. Mulder being removed from things for some time, then this story pops up and despite some pretty shaky evidence, he's all in. Just didn't do it for me. I'll keep watching, as it's the X Files and it's only 6 episodes, but I hope it gets much better.
