Fox to Air New Episodes of X-Files

Quote:
 
Agents Scully and Mulder will be back on TV for six new episodes of The X-Files. Fox has agreed to the short run, which will reunite stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, along with creator Chris Carter, reports the Wrap. “I think of it as a 13-year commercial break,” says Carter. “The good news is the world has only gotten that much stranger, a perfect time to tell these six stories.” Production is supposed to begin this summer, but there's no word yet on when the new episodes will air.

What's behind the move? Fans can tell themselves it's about their clamoring for more shows, and perhaps a satisfying ending, but this is really about the lucrative new world of streaming rights, says Merrill Barr at Forbes. "Fox doesn’t actually care that people want a new season of The X-Files, but they do care that Netflix would pay big money to stream the show exclusively in order to allow people the chance to catch-up beforehand," he writes. Those old shows suddenly have more worth, and the six new ones will surely make for a rich payday, too. For Fox, it's "found money."



This is great! :yippee: :happyclap: :cheer:

I hope it is a productive 6 episodes. Years later I am still left with a mild sense of "what the heck was that??" as far as storyline goes. Then there were the movies. The first movie pissed me off because it felt like there was no resolution to the series. Since I can barely remember the second movie (i.e. purposefully blocking it out), I am really hoping this brief series return has a better wrap up.

I'll definitely have to go back and rewatch the final few episodes to catch back up. I have a feeling the movies will pop up on the tv guide closer to when the new episodes air.

Oh and there really needs to be at least one Nicholas Lea/"Alex Krycek" guest appearance. :lol: :D

Yayyyyyy.... just looked at the IMDb and Nicholas Lea will be in the series. So will "Smoking Man" (William B. Davis). I thought he had passed away. Glad I was wrong on that.

Looks like The X-Files is scheduled to return January 24th 2016 @ 10:00 EST. :purplebanana:


I just hope they use their time wisely and have a clear cut storyline. I don't think I can handle a bunch of mishmash with no resolution of any kind.
