Tough TV Choices

I have a couple of choices for TV shows tonight. I could watch an X-Files rerun on the Comet network or the “season finale” of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.

Sena and I have been watching the X-Files reruns the last few nights. We didn’t know it was on until Sena happened to catch a couple of episodes. It comes on weeknights between 8-11 pm. They’re the early ones, which were pretty good.

We used to watch X-Files and munch popcorn a long time ago when the show was new. It was good entertainment.

On the other hand, it’s hard to know what to call The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. Is it entertainment or investigative reporting? I don’t know how you can say it’s investigative in nature when mostly what you see are guys firing off dozens of hobby rockets to annoy the interdimensional entities who then lob UFOs back at them.

Calling a show a “season finale” doesn’t make me think about scientific TV programs.

I’m betting the skinwalker season finale will be an extravaganza of hobby rockets and dozens of Sasquatches flinging their hairy legs in the air in unison Rockette-style while munching on beef jerky.

I can’t afford to miss that. Sena will watch the X-Files on the TV downstairs.
