X-Files Teased For 2017-2018 Return

 

FOX released their full 2016-2017 TV schedule, and something is missing: X-Files. After the "Event" mini-series this Winter, the show's fate was up in the air. It premiered spectacularly, but schedules for the three necessary people involved can be hard to wrangle.

 

While it's not on this year's schedule, FOX co-chief Dana Walden said she thinks the network with have "something exciting" to announce about X-Files during a conference call ahead of the upfronts later on Monday. She said that announcement will come at upfronts next year, implying it'll be for the 2017-2018 season. It sounds like the principals behind the show are all ready to go.

Significant Talks Going On At FOX About More X-Files

 

After The X-Files made a surprise return to FOX earlier in 2016, the network is looking at bringing it back again. Having previously teased the possibility, FOX network president David Madden said today at the TCA presentation that "there are significant talks going on with all three principals" and they "would love to do another season soon."

 

The network head said the six-episode "Season 10" of the show were good representations of creator Chris Carter's vision, and that "the episodes were strong." The creator wrote and directed three of the six episodes, which took fans back to the core mysteries of the earlier seasons of the show, while returning Mulder and Scully (and several other recurring original stars) to their former glory - and partnership.

 

"The challenge of filling in the mythology... won't be a problem" with future seasons, added FOX CEO Dana Walden, noting that having to catch new viewers up was a particular issue. Walden, along with Carter and stars David Duchovny and Gillian Andersen, all expressed their desire to do more episodes as far back as the premiere held for the event series. Carter confirmed in May that he has ideas for furthering the adventures of Mulder and Scully, as well.

The X-Files Officially Returning For A New Season

Quote

Following a ton of rumors and speculation, FOX has announced that The X-Files will, once again, return to its line-up for another event season.

 

The show returned with a 10-episode revival last year, and FOX was happy enough with the numbers to order one more. According to Deadline's report, the new 10-episode series will start production in the summer.

 

“Iconic characters, rich storytelling, bold creators – these are the hallmarks of great TV shows. And they are some of the reasons why The X-Files has had such a profound impact on millions of fans worldwide,” said Fox Broadcasting Company Prez David Madden. “Chris’ creativity, along with the brilliant work of David and Gillian, continue to propel this pop culture phenomenon, and we can’t wait to see what fresh mysteries Mulder and Scully uncover in this next chapter of The X-Files.”

 

This new season will mark the show's 11th to-date.

after the dispiriting 6 episode relaunch, this news is 67% more depressing - unless they could somehow woo Vince Gilligan into writing an episode or two.

looking forward to this, back to the mythology

I still can't believe all the characters Gillian Anderson played on American Gods. Including the first character she played, Lucille Ball (Lucy).

NO.

Spoiler

Sculley is receiving 'glimpse of a possible future' from her son. At the end of last season we got a 'flash' of what might happen, so no it not the future

Really enjoyed the season opener. I loved the modern day references to various world leaders etc. Made it feel like I was watching the series back when it first started airing. Great to see so much of the core cast back as well. Definitely a keeper.
