when i say i tuned out from the medium after the x-files, i'm really not exaggerating.

there's maybe an argument that this was in some sense the climax of television, altogether. for me, it was the grand finale.

and, i remember it as clearly as i do because it's so very true. this was really the end - not just of the show, but of the idea of television, altogether.

there just wasn't anything left to watch after this.
