for over 10 years. Considering "The X-Files" was an essential part in making its transition from "that other network" to a full fledge network, I can understand that. Its one of the most culturally releveant shows they had. I think they forget that the X-Files took a while to become what it was.

On the flip side had it not been for Fox, these shows wouldn't exist at all.
