10 Problems With The X-Files Revival Nobody Wants To Admit

In a world where binge watching is the preferred viewing method of many genre fans, will a weekly revival of a classic show really work?

Or will the six episodes of The X-Files due to air in 2016, which are currently filming in Vancouver, B.C., where the first five years of the show and both movies were shot, wind up leaking online? You know, similar to how the first four episodes of Game of Thrones' fifth season did?

Are audiences patient enough to go back to watching a show like this week after week? Will eager fans wind up spoiling the coming out party for the 90s sci-fi juggernaut?

There are a lot of problems with doing a six week series: it's not a one off, so there is some commitment, but it's airing at a time that will take it into February sweeps. Viewers who are set in their habits may not tune in, while viewers who really want to see it may wait and binge (or not wait, and binge, if the show does leak). Meanwhile, new viewers may not care if they're not hooked from the very first episode.

How will the Netflix generation take to the series? That's may be a huge factor in the show's success.
