Kate: You know, when the show was on the air, I was too young to really get the whole Mitch Pileggi Estrogen Brigade thing, but I so get it now. Gin: I didn’t watch the spinoff, but yes they need to be there, as does Skinner…and possibly shirtless Skinner. I want that retconned and the band back together. Kate: I watched their spinoff and was devastated when they died. Kate: I love Scully/Gillian Anderson’s new aesthetic. Regardless of costuming, I do love when Scully has to rescue Mulder because he’s gone and done something stupid and impulsive. I mean they both look ah-mazing, but I can’t imagine either one of them will be running after bad gals and guys as much in those, much tighter outfits. It really shows you how fashion on television has changed: Already, her outfits are much more bodycon when compared to her boxier 90s suits. She has been shown on set in sky-high, thin heels not the sensible pumps of 90s Scully. Gin: Yes, but we have to compare those lower, thicker, sensible 90s heels to today’s. Or just telling Mulder to shut the hell up works, too. Kate: Gillian Anderson is an expert at running in heels and kicking ass. Kumail Nanjiani had a shameless campaign of self-promotion to get on an episode–and it worked! So I’m hoping for a more diverse cast overall, and badass WOC. Gin: Scully often felt like “the exceptional woman” of 90s X-Files, which at the time we were so thirsty for, but in today’s age, there need to be numerous exceptional woman on the show who are competent and smart. Scully interacting with interesting women. As HitFix notes, Duchovny’s new crime drama about a detective chasing after the Manson Family, “Aquarius,” will run on Thursday nights alongside Anderson on “ Hannibal” this summer.įans of the "The X-Files," which ran from 1993 – 2002, are likely more than ready to mark their calendars for the return of their favorite FBI duo.The X-Files revival premieres this Sunday, January 24th, on Fox, and Gin and Kate are extremely excited! But there’s always cause for concern when a beloved pop culture artifact is rebooted or redone, so Gin and Kate sat down to discuss ten hopes they have for the revival.ġ. The “X-Files” reunion kind of undercuts the news that NBC was staging a half-hearted reunion of Duchovny and Anderson. “We had the privilege of working with Chris on all nine seasons of 'The X-Files' - one of the most rewarding creative experiences of our careers – and we couldn’t be more excited to explore that incredible world with him again," said Fox Television Group CEOs Newman and Walden in a statement. “The good news is the world has only gotten that much stranger, a perfect time to tell these six stories.”Īccording to Deadline, Carter and Fox executives began tossing around the idea of bringing Mulder and Scully back to TV after the network was met with success for reviving another one of its dormant series last year with “ 24: Live Another Day.” The Kiefer Sutherland series returned as a mini event-series after fans demanded to see more from the action drama. “I think of it as a 13-year commercial break,” said returning series creator and executive producer Chris Carter in a statement. While it was good, it was hardly enough to satiate fan's appetites for more cases in the paranormal and alien. Devoted fans of the hit science fiction show were gifted with a minor reunion in 2008 with the film “The X-Files: I Want To Believe,” which reunited the acting duo for a standalone story. The event series will mark the return of the show to TV after nearly 13 years away. The premiere date has yet to be announced, but is expected to come very soon. According to The Hollywood Reporter, production on the series is scheduled to begin filming sometime this summer. To answer the first question on everyone’s mind: Yes, both Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) are returning for the new run. It has been confirmed that Fox is bringing back the 16-time Emmy winning show for a six-part series event. FoxĪfter 13 long and agonizing years, fans of “The X-Files” finally have a reason to rejoice. "The X-Files" stars David Duchovny (left) and Gillian Anderson (right) are returning for a six-part event series on Fox in 2016.
