The X-Files Archives

Steven Maeda has come a long way since his days starting out on network television as a writer under The X-Files creator Chris Carter Aside from writing two episodes of Carter's short-lived series Harsh Realm, Maeda joined the long-running paranormal series late during its initial FOX run in season seven, writing the episode "Brand X"[...]

With all of that talk from earlier today about The X-Files creator Chris Carter dropping the bomb that Ryan Coogler (Fruitvale Station, Creed, "Black Panther" films) was "going to remount" the series, our time machines have been forced to head back to August 2020 That's when the news hit that FOX and Carter were working[...]

Usually, when we discuss the return of The X-Files, we're automatically going to either Gillian Anderson or David Duchovny to see where they currently stand on returning (or not returning) to the franchise – more on that in a minute But this time around, we have a very unexpected update from series creator Chris Carter[...]

As you're about to see, it sounds more like Duchovny's more into how excited the person is sharing the information than he is about the intel itself. Image courtesy of 20th Century Studios Here's a look at Duchovny's late-night visit with Kimmel (with The X-Files/UFO talk beginning at around the 2:50 mark), where he also discusses his[...]

It's hard to imagine The X-Files without creator Chris Carter and stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, who play FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully Fox and Carter have tried in seasons eight and nine when Duchovny "left" the show and his appearances were in a far more limited capacity Even when Anderson was[...]

If there's anyone who has anything to say about the US government's report on UFOs on June 25, it would be The X-Files creator and executive producer Chris Carter The series, which originally ran from 1993-2002 and two rival seasons in 2016 and 2018, followed the adventures of FBI agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny), an[...]

Gillian Anderson is well-aware of her status as a pop culture icon leaving her mark on the Fox sci-fi series The X-Files as FBI agent Dana Scully for 11 seasons from its original nine-season run in the 1990s to the revival in 2016 and 2018 Unfortunately, her time on the revival left her worse for[...]

The X-Files, one of the most iconic science fiction series of the 90s, almost didn't turn out as originally conceived if star David Duchovny had his way Appearing on Literally! With Rob Lowe, (via Deadline Hollywood) the actor talked to the host about his initial reluctance on becoming FBI Agent Fox Mulder on the series'[...]

For the most part with new stories, you're likely going to get contemporary updates like Twin Peaks, Arrested Development, and The X-Files As a byproduct of their times, there's something that's just off when these past characters use contemporary tech when it wasn't available then like smartphones You also run into the issue of what keeps[...]

I know that's blasphemy to some, but let's be honest: we all know it's going to happen at some point.

American Horror[...]

As a long-running fan of The X-Files, I will readily admit that when some mentions "new series," a number of very legit jokes come to mind Will we get yet another answer to what happened with Mulder's (David Duchovny) sister? Will the series copy the show's last return and burn out by the end of[...]

Yes, we're all gutted that The CW's Supernatural is coming to an end, but if you're on the hunt for another show to fill the void, I humbly present… The X-Files. "But Eden, The X-Files is an old series! I've seen it before! Besides, it has an inherent lack of Dean!" Why yes, dear reader, all of[...]

With Arrow shuffling off the network's programming coil after an abbreviated 10-episode eighth season (making The Flash the "elder states-show" of the "Arrowverse" as it speeds into its sixth season), Ruby Rose-starrer Batwoman joining the family alongside Supergirl, and a looming "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover that could change things dramatically (more on that below),[...]

We had a decidedly love-hate relationship with season 11 of FOX's The X-Files There were some lovely moments, some true Xphile (fans of the series) dream moments, but also some absolutely ridiculous WHY moments as well Rumors have been swirling since midway through season 11 as to whether or not the network would be bringing back[...]

David Duchovny isn't just that guy from The X-Files, and perhaps it's time more fans acknowledge that I say this because earlier this week, I spent an evening at a book signing with the author of the newly released "Miss Subways", his third published novel. To explain: I was really excited to attend this event, as Books[...]

I'll admit- when FOX announced they were bringing back their landmark drama The X-Files for an additional season, I wasn't too happy It was my favorite tv show growing up (aside from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), and I made my peace with it ending long ago.  Then, the network brought back the show last year for[...]

David Duchovny is a pretty well rounded guy.  He's an actor, a writer, a musician, a doggo dad (and a regular human dad, too)- and today he's answering questions on twitter. Posted yesterday to both his personal twitter account and the official FOX The X-Files account- a call for questions from fans using the hashtag #AskDuchovny ahead of[...]

This week's The X-Files is the 9th episode of season 11 on FOX, and is titled "Nothing Lasts Forever" While investigating human organ theft, Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) uncover a mysterious cult consumed with macabre rituals. Thanks FOX for these fabulous 'The X-Files' images each week. Organ theft?  Sign me up! But also be aware- there is a[...]

Look at The X-Files "seasons" at IDW, where Joe Harris was able to maintain the strength of the show while defining it in new directions as the TV series continued in print form- until Fox and Chris Carter decided to bring the show back. Now what does that have to do with Buffy the Vampire Slayer? The[...]

The time has come for another classic The X-Files style belief vs skepticism episode, "Familiar" If you missed last week's tech-heavy yet minimalist episode, you can read about it here.
