‘The X-Files’ Will Return

I should hope so! We were left with a cliffhanger last year, with the lead characters seemingly facing certain death!

This would excite me more if the writers would stop wandering down what I consider a dead trail, re-set the show, and write it like it was when I fell in love with it- a sharp monster of the week series with Mulder as the believer and Scully as the doubter. I loved that it took wild outlandish stories that everybody points at in print and knows are hoaxes and showed the truth (which was pretty much always stranger). I loved how it made the unbelievable believable. I loved how it took real issues of the day and spun them. I liked Mulder's mysteriously missing sister. I didn't want that mystery solved. I wanted him not knowing what really happened to her (alien/human abduction or something worse that his mind blocked out) to drive him. I wanted it to give Scully one more thing to doubt.

I never wanted aliens to be directly involved in Mulder and Scully's life. Sure a broken watch, some bright lights, and a missing window of time can be fun, but lets leave it at that.

That's my two cents.

I'm excited for this. However, it seems they're taking the lazy way out of that cliffhanger by having the new season start out two years later. At least that time jump ensures that we're probably going to see more monster of the weeks. Those are fun. But at the same time, if it feels rushed that's gonna suck...

Finally!!

However, as much as I love The X-Files, I hope this is the last time they come back, and that there is no cliff hanger. I guess I'm just worried that it will suck if it keeps going on and on.

Hmm. With 207 episodes and two movies, how many programs a week would I need to "watch it all" before next February?
