This past spring, we let down our guards and trusted Fox (sorry Deep Throat) when it announced that The X-Files were coming back. Thankfully that emotional gamble has paid off (we’re still waiting for some set proof, Lynch) and starting on January 24, 2016, America will, once again, join Mulder and Scully in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe.

For die-hard X-Files fans, this promise of six new episodes is all they need, but what if you haven’t ever watched the classic sci-fi show? First of all—don’t admit that out loud. Secondly—Fox has you covered. This morning, the TV channel announced that it would be showing all 201 episodes of the ’90s mega-hit in order, once a day, starting with the pilot today.

Get excited for the long haul marathon by watching a teaser trailer, which features a brief clip of modern day Mulder and Scully, below.
