Gish Disappointed Over 'X-Files' Ratings. It's got to be a tough postion to be in, but I don't think it's come as a surprise to anyone connected with the show or to anyone who watches it. Scully may still be there, but Mulder and Scully aren't, and they were the heart of the show. I still enjoy watching, but I just don't care as much as I used to. Well, let me correct that - I do still care enough to hope that the powers that be will allow the show to end after this season and let the franchise live on in movies.
