Chris Carter doesn’t indulge in social media, but he still managed to spawn a trending topic when it was announced that the iconic series he created – The X-Files, about those equally iconic UFO-chasing FBI agents, Mulder and Scully – would be returning to Fox for a six-part event series. Between 1993 and 2002, The X-Files was a veritable cultural phenomenon. The paranormal drama logged 202 episodes over its nine seasons, five seasons of which were shot right here in the 604 before production moved down to Los Angeles. But the event series means more than just a return to a ... [Continua a leggere]

Sometimes you get lucky. We’d arranged to meet with the actor David Duchovny this week in Santa Monica, Calif., to discuss his new series “Aquarius,” a period crime drama coming to NBC on May 28, for a coming article. Then something else came up. On Tuesday Fox announced that it was bringing back “The X-Files,” which starred Mr. Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as F.B.I. agents investigating alien-related conspiracies and bizarre, often paranormal, crimes. (The Internet noticed.) The series began as an oddity in 1993 but became a phenomenon, running until 2002 and ... [Continua a leggere]

"I've known about (the greenlight) for quite a long time, the negotiations took so many months, I can't believe it! They w ... [Continua a leggere]
