This thread turned stupid real fast. Like God damn Amidala, let us discuss the topic you started before you derail it.
Anyway, on the topic, my own continued dislike of the Scully years is largely due to the fact that as someone who is actually old enough to have been there when it happened that era will always be remembered as the time when my absolute favorite show transformed into a show I didn't even like. I can understand why some people might be entertained by the Scully era episodes with their ultra-cynical, over-the-top, fast-paced, in-your-face approach to comedy. But as for me, I will always remember those years as the time when a show I thought was perfect became something that not only disapointed me but actively annoyed me. Like, watching all those Jerkass Homer episodes didn't just bore me, it actively made me dislike the show, especially Homer himself. And of course now that the Scully era (or Jerkass Homer era) is long gone, I have to admit that it's been replaced by a version of the show that is in many ways even worse, it's just bad in a different way from the previous era. But the thing is; regardless of how bad the show gets, this continued downfall doesn't actually make the Scully era better. I've said it before; a pile of garbage doesn't stop being a pile of garbage just because you stumble upon an even bigger pile of garbage.
And to me personally, the Scully era is the one era that gives me the worst vibes since it took the place of the golden era version of the show. The Jean era meanwhile merely took the place of the Scully era version, so it's like, yeah the Jean era sucks, but it merely replaced a show that also sucked, so not a very big loss there.
