The overarching plot arc of the X-Files serves one purpose and one purpose only: creating a setting in which monster of the week episodes can happen.
"Filler" episodes are usually the best episodes, you fucking idiot. Just Look at TOS. "A Piece of the Action," "The Trouble With Tribbles," "This Side of Paradise," "Tomorrow Is Yesterday," "Shore Leave," etc. These episodes are some of the most memorable ones and had no real point.
