The X-Files


The X-Files Might (Almost Definitely?) Reopen Soon!

The shadowy conspiracy to bring us more X-Files is coming out into the light! David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have agreed to reprise their roles as Mulder and Scully, Chris Carter will be writing and executive producing, and Fox is close to greenlighting the show! However, there’s an interesting twist in the details...

Apparently, the new season of the show will be embracing a relatively new trend in American television. According to Comicbook.com:

TV Wise is reporting that Fox is planning to order a shortened season of The X-Files—less than 10 episodes.

This is potentially great news! A short season will be much easier for the actors to schedule, obviously, but even more importantly, an intense arc will encourage Chris Carter to keep the show stay tight and focused, rather than getting lost in the byzantine plotlines of later seasons. Imagine a ten-episode arc where Mulder and Scully have to solve one supernatural crime or fight one particular secret government agency, rather than hacking away at a gorgon of rumors, theories, and Flukemen? Perhaps, for the first time in their FBI careers, they’ll yield results and actually arrest somebody!

As if that wasn’t promising enough, they’ve reached out to Mitch Pileggi, which means we may see the triumphant return of SKINNER’S FIST. So what do you think? Will Mulder and Scully still have a place in our hyper-paranoid United States? Will the inevitable alien invasion really be that bad? And are there any monsters-of-the-week left to chase, or did the Winchester boys get them all?

Its been a while since I've thought about it, but my guess is that I was thinking "meh, they're just gonna make it all Hollywood and not delve into the serious and realistic aspects of it, its Scooby Doo for grownups".

But with The Walking Dead and Appalachian Outlaws (among other shows) coming to an end for the year, I have time in my schedule now for another appointment tv show.

So Walking Dead has the serious and realistic aspect you're looking for?

You're comparing apples and oranges, I wasn't, totally different subject matter... each one is judged on its own merits.

FOX used to have some cool SciFi in the mid 90s.

VR5 and Space Above and Beyond to name a few

but they would cancel stuff so fast

I loved it. I really wish it was in syndication instead of a lot of the garbage sitcoms they feed to us.

And I feel the same way about Fringe. Hell, I think I like Fringe even better. Walter might be my favorite TV Character of all time...

I watched every episode of Fringe but the writers just couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be about. Aliens? Multiverse? Time travel? Monster of the Week?

At its best, it was nearly as good as the X-Files best seasons (1993-1997, IMO). When it was at its worst (the final season and other episodes), it was Disappointment TV at its finest.

Fringe, Alcatraz and LOST are the reasons I will never, ever spend even two minutes watching a JJ Abrams produced television show, again, and the only reason I have any misgivings about Episode VII.

I would argue that for 4 seasons Fringe did a great job of balancing "story of the week" with an over-arcing story for the season.

In Fringe what happened in ep 2 of season 1 usually came back by the end. Or once again appeared in season 3. I thought they did a great job of slow playing ideas until the compressed last season.

I never did understand their really $#itty conclusion and how the time travel aspects were supposed to work out to make everything OK. In fact, no matter how you look at that ending it makes no sense...
