i looked it up and xfiles started airing in '93. and its far enough away for me that the technology is familiar but absolutely ancient to me. and i am sure it was cutting edge back then (they had a voice analyser they borrowed from a different department!).

there was the episode (5 or so in s1) where they were dealing with a sentient super computer, and first of all shout out for taking an anti ai stand lol, and second they were woefully unprepared for dealing with it. compare it to leverage and they were trying to fell a tree with a nailfile, so they could get to the operating room and destroy it. i kept thinking of the sterenko in leverage and how different the writers were treating and dealing with a computer system that controls a whole building.
