I want to believe in a third "X-Files" movie but the truth is not out there … yet. At one of the most anticipated panels of San Diego Comic-Con, stars Gillian Anderson, David Duchovny, creator Chris Carter, writers Vince Gilligan ("Breaking Bad") and Howard Gordon ("Homeland") and a gaggle of other show scribes gathered for TV Guide Magazine's 20th Anniversary reunion panel on Thursday. With a spooky Mulder-appropriate entrance, Duchovny and Anderson entered the panel in darkness, shining flashlights around as they made their way to the rest of the awaiting panelists and moderator Mich ...

During its heyday, The X-Files could be a truly frightening show. Airing from 1993 to 2002, the groundbreaking sci-fi series found FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully investigating all manner of ghouls, monsters and aliens, all the while digging into a vast government conspiracy that would give any little kid nightmares. But for all of the show's intense subject matter, X-Files stars David Duchovny (playing the true believer Mulder) and Gillian Anderson (the more science-minded Scully) also had plenty of funny moments. And their famous comedic chemistry was on full display at San Diego's Co ... [Continua a leggere]

Never, in my… 8 hours at Comic-Con… have I seen a more packed-panel. The cast and crew of ’90s TV sensation “The X-Files” came together to celebrate the show’s 20th anniversary, and work some rather frenzied fans into frighteningly excited states, in a panel in Ballroom 20. Proceedings kicked off with introductions of the behind-the-scenes crew, namely creator Chris Carter, before the screens opened and we saw a glimpse of the show’s opener. Then, out of the black, came David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, waving their torches about – just li ... [Continua a leggere]

SAN DIEGO -- It's been 20 years since Fox's The X-Files opened the door to a new era of TV science fiction, merging scary monster investigations with a deep, ongoing mythology rooted in conspiracy theory. Fans at Comic-Con celebrated the series today with a 20th anniversary panel featuring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, who played FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. The former was a believer in the paranormal, the latter a skeptic, and together they made up a law-enforcement odd couple that mesmerized the popular culture. The hit series also was one of the shows that helped put a th ... [Continua a leggere]

Writer Darin Morgan returns to The X-Files (1993 - 2002) with "The War of the Coprophages," another humorous installment that gazes at humanity with unblinking and unromantic eyes. In particular, the story involves the “insect mind” as it relates to cockroaches. However, “The War of the Coprophages” also compares the relative purity and simplicity of the insect mind to the “over-developed” human mind, a biological machine which permits for non-useful responses or “reactions” to threats; responses such as paranoia or hysteria, for example. These ... [Continua a leggere]

Fox Mulder and Dana Scully (or, if you insist, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson) reunited at Comic-Con for the 20th Anniversary of "The X-Files." Judging by the hero's welcome they both received, FOX's landmark sci-fi series still has a rabid fanbase over a decade after leaving the air.Anderson, Duchovny and creator Chris Carter headlined the panel discussion along with key producers including Vince Gilligan ("Breaking Bad") and Howard Gordon ("Homeland"). The topics ranged from classic "X-Files" episodes (including the chilling "Home" and kooky "Jose Chung's From Outer Space") to the show' ... [Continua a leggere]

TV Guide celebrated the 20th anniversary of "The X-Files" at San Diego Comic-Con, and we have all the highlights from the panel right here for you! The truth is in here! Any possibility of a limited TV series like what they're doing with "24"? Gillian Anderson said she's not interested in that, but "a film would be great." The Season 10 comic has been blessed by Chris Carter, but he said it's "more comic book-y" than the series and has "its own mythology." Vince Gilligan mentioned how meeting/working with Bryan Cranston on the "Drive" episode in Season 6 resulted in the creation of "Breakin ... [Continua a leggere]

"I didn't realize Mulder was so cool until a few years later. Then I thought, 'Damn. Shoulda gone there sooner … ' Was I supposed to contain myself?" And with that, a fiesty Gillian Anderson set the 20th Anniversary X-Files panel Thursday ablaze. It's been two decades since FBI Special Agents Mulder and Scully first teamed up to investigate unsolved paranormal cases, but shippers never say die! So began a series of not-so-coy inquiries to the reunited Anderson and David Duchovny, who walked on to the darkened stage together bearing flashlights. First up: Mulder and Scully sex &md ...

It sounds like the cast and crew of The X-Files are itching to make that third movie. Creator Chris Carter, stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, and seven of the show's writers reunited today for a panel at Comic-Con to celebrate the paranormal series' 20th anniversary in front of a massive audience of fans. The discussion ranged from the possibility of a new movie, to why Duchovny and Anderson never worked together again (Duchovny feels their X-Files relationship is too special), to Mulder and Scully's lost sex tape (a joke, we think). There were no shortage of fans wearing T-shirts fr ... [Continua a leggere]

"The X-Files" reunion at Comic-Con International was easily one of the most anticipated events of the 2013 convention and for fans of the late Fox series, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary, stars Gillian Anderson (Dana Scully), David Duchovny (Fox Mulder), creator Chris Carter and writers/producers Howard Gordon (who went on to co-develop "Homeland"), Vince Gilligan (who created "Breaking Bad") and more did not disappoint. Duchovny and Anderson kicked off "The X-Files" reunion at Comic-Con by "playing" Mulder and Scully again: They came out on stage with flashlights, much to the delig ... [Continua a leggere]

Mulder and Scully themselves - okay, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson - will be joined by creator Chris Carter and a bunch of the show's writers (including Breaking Bad boss Vince Gilligan and Homeland's Howard Gordon) to reminisce about their time on the revolutionary series! Join us as we get all nostalgic from 3.30pm PT / 8.30pm ET / 11.30pm BST for our live blog of proceedings... 16:32 But that's that for the panel - let's hope it's not another 20 years before we get more X-Files, eh? 16:31 As people shout out numbers, David jokes: "This is how we're going to get the movie made." "It' ... [Continua a leggere]

"X-Files" fans hoping for another movie sequel heard some good news at Thursday's 20th anniversary panel at Comic-Con. Sort of. Star David Duchovny, who played Agent Fox Mulder, said because the groundbreaking sci-fi series offered endless possibilities, "We could do it forever. I always thought when we can come back together, we will. As much as we can." Gillian Anderson, who portrayed Mulder's initially skeptical partner Dana Scully, is game as long as their reunion doesn't happen on the small screen. "A film would be great." Creator Chris Carter fell just short of confirming a third mov ... [Continua a leggere]

For "Breaking Bad" creator Vince Gilligan and "Hunted" creator Frank Spotnitz, writing for "The X-Files" was their first job in television. That wasn't the case for Howard Gordon, but he said in a recent interview about the show that his time as an "X-Files" staff writer and producer had a big impact on him. How to sustain suspense; how to create a story "engine" to which other writers can add and yet retain their own voices; and how to scare and surprise the folks sitting on their couches at home -- Gordon learned or honed a lot of those skills during the first four seasons of "The X-Files" ...

Few people have as much insight into the rise and run of "The X-Files" as Frank Spotnitz. Spotnitz joined the show as a writer in its second season and worked as a writer/producer until the Fox drama ended its nine-season run. He rose to the level of executive producer, directed episodes of the show and worked on the "X-Files" movies that were released during and after the show's run. None of it was easy. Part of the reason an obscure show that aired on Friday nights rose to such heights of popularity and influence was because Chris Carter, the show's creator and executive producer, was a d ...

It's hard to believe that it's been 20 years since we were introduced to spooky Fox Mulder and the enigmatic Dana Scully on "The X-Files". Now, ten years after the show ended and five years after the last movie, fans are still waiting for some real closure to the adventures of Mulder and Scully. That wait might be over -- kind of. Both Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny are set to make an appearance this weekend at the 2013 San Diego International Comic-Con at a special panel celebrating the 20th anniversary of "The X-Files". The panel will be held on Thursday, July 18 at 3:30 PT in Ballroo ... [Continua a leggere]
