US: The X-Files: Re-opened

Sliver · 29 Dec 2015 at 17:29

Debuts end of Jan 2016. Really looking forward to this as I've been a long time fan of the show.

Thirteen years after the original series run, the next mind-bending chapter of THE X-FILES is a thrilling, six-episode event series from creator/executive producer Chris Carter, with stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson re-inhabiting their roles as iconic FBI Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. Mitch Pileggi also returns as FBI Asst. Dir. Walter Skinner, Mulder and Scully’s boss, who walks a fine line between loyalty to these investigators and accountability to his superiors.

does one need to have watched all of previous xfiles to watch this ?

I doubt it, but there's probably going to be references to the back story which might pass you by if you're new to the show.

Does anyone know when Channel 5 will be showing them in the UK? Not sure if it will be at the same time as the US or if we'll have to wait as usual....

Not yet known when it will play on UK TV. Hopefully, something will appear with a UK date.

Oh, channel 5. I think I might give this a miss then.

BB played on Spike. I would never normally watch anything on Spike, but BB was the best thing to hit TV in a long time. If it's good it's good. Doesn't matter what channel it's on.
