Fox: The X-Files
Seem like I'm about 23 years behind on this one?
(Jesus, 23 years?!) Apparently not. Fox is in talks with Chris Carter to bring it back, including having David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reprise Scully and Mulder. Nothing creative yet, just seeing how schedules line up, but still... Also having (unrelated of course) talks about bringing back Prison Break and running a Kiefer-free version of 24 (not sure how that would work; he was that snow). |

Gillian is damn hot though. Talk about getting better with age.

Next week looks like a true MOTW episode. I really think this will have a chance to really show how close they can get to the old shows feel.
3rd episode had the highest viewership of the night for any show, with 8.6 million. For reference "Gotham" for Fox in the same time slot was getting half of that. Here is a link to it breaking world-wide ratings records. http://screenrant.com/x-files-revival-ratings-records/ |

I really liked Mulder's little crisis of beliefs and philosophies.

I loved the episode. Watched it with my wife and her family, we were all cracking up throughout. Glad to see Kumail Nanjiani got a spot on the show, didn't know that was lined up.

Bizarre episode. Laughed throughout.

That was hilariously weird... Seemed like they were almost poking fun at their original "Monster of the Week" concept. I really liked it. Rhys Darby put on one helluva performance, and completely stole the spotlight.
Scully is so very hot.................

Now that was a good episode. Was representative of a lot of what I liked about the X-Files in its original run.

Has anyone else felt like the new episodes have been a little flat and tv-looking? I haven't seen the show since it originally aired, but I remember it being more cinematic.

After about 1998 or so, the colors were much better and deeper but I think that has more to do with Post Production. I remember a time when Da Vince cost $1 million dollars. Now, everyone has it as a plugin on their Avid rig. The new episodes look fine to me. |
