I'm a younger Millennial and didn't watch the show until my early twenties.

It has its flaws and isn't feminist by any means.

But Scully is actually a REAL person and isn't some one dimensional woman they just threw in the show to only be Mulder's romantic interest (even though they do end up together, she has a greater purpose).

The show highlights government corruption which you don't see much of in modern media.

And it has an amazing plot that explores the balance between science and belief.

Stranger Things is the only modern show I can think of that is similar in quality and content.
