19 Maggio 2002. Sui televisori americani scorrevano le ultime immagini dell'episodio La verità, che segnava il traguardo di un viaggio durato nove anni, quello di X-Files. Un percorso articolato, fatto di tensione ma anche ironia, di paranoia cospirazionista ma abile e realistico approfondimento dei personaggi, di dialoghi elaborati e messa in scena all'avanguardia. Un segmento di storia televisiva che di fatto segna una linea di confine tra il passato e il futuro. Uno spaccato di storia del piccolo schermo che distende la sua lunga ombra fino ai giorni nostri, definendo quella che &egr ... [Continua a leggere]

Exclusive: Chris Carter, creator and executive producer of Fox’s long running series The X-Files, re-entered the world of television this past development cycle, or at least he tried to.

But after having what several network sources described as &ldquo ... [Continua a leggere]

Missione compiuta grazie a serie culto come X-Files, anch’essa vicina ad un importante traguardo: i 20 anni dalla prima puntata. Nove stagioni per un totale di 202 episodi, in onda negli Stati Unit ... [Continua a leggere]

E X Files – che a distanza di vent’anni dalla sua messa in onda e a dieci dalla fine vanta ancora uno stuolo di fan adoranti, milioni di dvd venduti e un ... [Continua a leggere]
