Fox Mulder Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I just read on Yahoo that Fox is trying to reboot the X-Files and have David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson resume their roles as Mulder and Scully. This was my favorite tv show growing up and if this is true it would make my life whole again. Anybody else as excited as I am about this? The truth is out there.

drdeath Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 It would be interesting to see where the show could go now that December 2012 has come and passed. I'd be pretty happy if this comes to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLASSJAW Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 i was pretty young back when the original series was on and loved it, loved it, loved it. read the cheesy novel and comic spin offs, had the t-shirts, the plastic mulder fbi badge, the expensive, over-sized VHS sets .EVERYTHING i could buy that was branded X Files, i'd buy it but how could anyone NOT be cynical about this? can someone name me one show that Fox has produced in the last ten years that wasn't totally lame, tame, and family friendly drama LOADED with commercials, product placements, inoffensive writing, etc.? i don't know, i just like (or want) to think that audiences are far more sophisticated than Fox is now. AMC may not push boundaries, but at least it makes up for it with some solid content. one episode of Game of Thrones has more 'challenging' or offensive content than an entire fall lineup from Fox -- and even my mom and all her water cooler, middle aged co-workers watch GoT. HBO, now at its most graphic, is literally mainstream, and its headline show is all about graphic incest, decapitations, violence, and 'complicated' plot lines -- this is the exact opposite of everything on Fox keep in mind Fox is also trying to reboot Prison Break and 24. we all know how this will go: everyone will jump on the X-Files bandwagon for a season or two, the novelty will wear off, the show will fizzle out while Fox milks it for their last pennies while it tries to capitalize on nostalgia and think of new court or FBI dramas to push this is a desperate move from a desperate network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 So I guess two movies didn't make up for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Oh it's probably going to be a disappointment, but I'll watch anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddhas Hand Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 She still looks quite good even now, at 46. This is from October: Been watching a BBC crime drama set in northern Ireland called The Fall , gillian stars in it . Well worth checking out. Have seen her in a few british shows , thought she might have moved there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dressed up and modernized for sure but at heart it will still be the same show. I see no reason why it would be a lame, tame, family friendly drama.

Hugor Hill Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 HBO, now at its most graphic, is literally mainstream, and its headline show is all about graphic incest, decapitations, violence, and 'complicated' plot lines -- this is the exact opposite of everything on Fox Be careful.... anything you say about GoT can only be reductive. Regarding Fox, FX is part of Fox and they do have some good shows. A lot of people here like American Horror Story which I think is only alright. The Americans, starring Keri Russell, is a great show. It's up there with the AMC and HBO heavy hitters. I'm a contrarian here. I have no interest in The X-Files. They should've ended that show with a definite ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Defiantly support this, always liked the tv series more then the Movies, but with Gillian and David they work well together. I read something last year, they were talking about it and Gillian said she would be interested in doing the tv series again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Industrious1 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 About 3 years ago I watched all the seasons sequentially and damn did it get hard to stomach after the 5th.If its quality is closer to the first 5 then I'd be interested in rebooting my nostalgia...if it's the latter part? Pfffew, no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox Mulder Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 That was a solid show, Id totally watch it again, as long as smoking man is still in it Pretty sure they killed him in the finale but he was one of my favorite characters. I'd love it if they found a way to bring him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offensive Threat Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 IF they film it here (Vancouver) thatd get me interested enough to watch. It went a little off the rails near the end of the original series though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
