You know, back in the day I was an avid fan of X Files, but it’s only while watching it
now that I realise just how many glaring plot holes it contained. Is that
because I’m twenty or so years older and disposed to look for loopholes with
the benefit of a more cynical outlook? Or is it because I’ve largely left the
world behind and see the relative positions of trees better for being outside
the wood?
I don’t know, but it is interesting to realise how easily a
well made film or TV show can drag you along with a compelling plot so
completely that you fail to spot the absurdities contained within it. I’m
finding this with nearly everything I re-watch these days.
I did think of watching some episodes of The Magic Roundabout on YouTube, but
maybe I won’t. Some childhood memories are better left intact.
