Yeah it just feels like such a 90's idea at this point, audiences will absolutely still care about your main couple if you know how to write it well. And geez it's not like the show is a soap opera drama when they need to make the relationship the main focus and source of drama, they could very easily just give us great cases each week, and keep M/S as a happy couple in the background. I have more sympathy for teen dramas when it comes to them needing to break their couples up and find new sources of storylines, but with a show like The X-Files It's not like they need to keep introducing personal drama to keep the show going, their personal lives were very rarely dealt with when the show was having its most successful run
