James Evan Pilato of Media Monarchy invited me on “Navigating Netflix” to discuss the X-Files reboot and its meaning in the pop milieu that is Hollywood’s obsession with rehashing the 80s and 90s. What the heck is up with the X Files showing so much conspiracy reality, yet cloaking it under the “alien” blanket? Was there anything redeeming in the show, or was it more or less a failure? Is all this just “conspiracy candy,” to quote HoaxBusters? What about the references to GMOs, the NSA and chemtrails?
