It's me, lynx, Rufie, although I can't quite figure out how to do this on my iPhone. Waiting sort of anxiously.

It was absolutely terrible and I loved every bit of it.

The episode was simultaneously ponderous and comically accelerated. The former because it was laced with Chris Carter's most heavy-handedly portentous dialogue, and with lots of doom and gloom from Our Heroes that seemed largely unearned. (The last time we saw Mulder and Scully, they were happily rowing into the sunset. Quick, hit reset!) The latter because the story seemed to pack an entire season's worth of psychological movement into a single hour: Mulder intrigued, Scully skeptical; Mulder passionate, Scully annoyed and worried; Mulder suddenly concluding that everything they know is wrong, Scully mournfully concluding he's off his rocker; Mulder chastened by the vicious opposition of the conspirators, Scully finally convinced the fight is worth the risk; both members of the duo recommitted to the X-Files!
My first post to this group was about 20 years ago. I haven't posted anything to any part of Usenet for several years, but I felt a strange obligation to at least acknowledge "Season 10."

Excellent reboot episode.
Also note the lack of ponderous verbiage in my comment.

I agree with Alan. It had its charming clunkiness given that it was rebooting a 9 year series after 10 years away, but I loved every minute of it.
