X-Files:20+ minute teaser

Only 6 episodes? This going to be the last season?
 
The six episodes make it "event tv". It's what the networks are starting to do now. Along with splitting the season a la Agents of Shield with Agent Carter 8 episodes in between.

The networks are bleeding viewers and so have to come up with new ways to attract viewers. Limited series is one way they are trying.

Also I would think the salaries for a full season for the leads would be big. They can make it smaller and see if the series has legs with this.
 
The real conspiracy is why does Agent Scully have a fake American accent. She actually has a British accent.
 
Did anyone watch the 1st episode of the X-Files new show last night?

Is it just a 2 part special?

I liked it. Especially, the special effects.
 
Watched it last night.
Enjoyed it.
Looking forward to the rest.

Watched it as well. Didn't like it, despite being a fan of the original series. David Duchovny's performance seemed either bored or tired. Gillian Anderson also seemed flat, especially compared to her role in The Fall. It was almost as if they knew they were just mailing this in. Let' see if things pick up as the series moves along.
 
I didn't like the way they basically tossed all the mythology out the window, *Spoiler alert* the aliens were coming to warn us of our "wicked ways", and made it a human conspiracy using alien technology.

I can see Mulder and Scully teaming up with aliens at the end.

They have to switch it up. the reason the original series died was because the idea kept getting recycled and the same ideas started to expire and get really boring, being used over and over again.
 
The real conspiracy is why does Agent Scully have a fake American accent. She actually has a British accent.

Other way round.

She's American born, but she also spent some time as a young girl in Britain. (Though she was largely raised in the USA (Michigan if I recall.)

Anyway, she can turn her British / American accent on and off as required. (She did a British TV series that is on Netflix that is pretty good where she played a female detective who is outwardly cold, but actually fairly sexual. The show was called "The Fall". It's a pretty good show.)
 
I saw 2 episodes. What's happened to David Duchovny's voice? Sounds different probably from years of smoking?
 
Yes, Mon Feb 1 and 3 more after that and perhaps more.

8 more episodes. and then they're going to have a verdict whether or not to continue the show with more episodes due to the ratings. so far, the ratings have been very promising.

im just watching to see if mulder and scully are even on the wagon to continue this show.

the director said due to the ratings, he's going to ask everyone if they want to climb on board to continue the show. so they all get a vote.

considering mulder and scully dont really have anything else going on.

i watched The Fall, it didnt even come close to as good as xfiles.
