Reply to comment by onometre in TIL During the 20th century TV series that reached 100 episodes were generally preferred for syndication, since that meant stations could run 20 weeks of programming without repeating a story. In recent years that number has fallen to 88 episodes. by UndyingCorn
Agreed that some of the monster of the week episodes are timeless, and most of the plot episodes were sorta ruined by the later stuff. IIRC Chris Carter had wrote an ending similar to the movie around season 5, but Fox wanted to keep making the show. AFAIK Chris Carter and David Duchovny ultimately left the show around that time because they didnt want to deal with the grueling production of 26 episodes a season.

IMO its good that its changed (somewhat). Less episodes means higher production value per episode. We wouldn't get something like the Mandalorian or Wandavision from the thinking of 90s TV execs. Also go back and watch a series like the X-files, which was slavishly devoted to the 26 episode format. There's tons of episodes that are literally filler crap, "monster of the week" stuff.
