It’s hard to believe, but The X-Files premiered 20 years ago this September. As it turns out, to celebrate the show reaching this milestone, there will be a big reunion panel next month at San Diego Comic-Con. SDCCBlog.com gave us the heads up about The X-Files reunion, noting that the latest issue of TV Guide Magazine has an ad for the panel, which will take place on Thursday, July 18th and will feature series creator Chris Carter and writer/producers David Amann, Vince Gilligan, Howard Gordon, Darin Morgan, Glen Morgan, John Shiban and Jim Wong.

For a few of the writers gathered, this was the first time they had seen one another since Chris Carter's conspiracy-laden sci-fi drama -- which, at its height, was abducting nearly 20 million viewers a week -- finished its Emmy-winning run 11 years ago. Heck, the last time Vince Gilligan saw David Duchovny -- who also wrote and directed a handful of episodes in addition to starring as FBI agent Fox Mulder -- was at the wrap party. But the show has remained with them, as they've gone on to become some of the most respected showrunners in Hollywood. As Gilligan confides, "Everything we do on ... [Continua a leggere]

Program begins with a presentation on the art and design of “The X-Files.” Following, marking the 20th anniversary of the remarkable television series “The X-Files,” we screen two notable episodes. Season 7’s “Je Souhaite” (2000, 44 min.), whose title translates to “I Wish” and features a 500-year-old genie, was written and directed by Vince Gilligan. Season 6's “Triangle,” (1998, 44 min.), a mix of time travel and WWII intrigue set on a 1939 ocean liner, was written and directed by Chris Carter. Both episodes were designed by ...

From their obsessive rituals (Peppermint Patties! Oatmeal! Bruce Springsteen!) to the parts of their jobs they hate most (killing characters off, dealing with agents), TV's most influential writer-producers featured on The Hollywood Reporter's annual list of the Top 50 Showrunners come clean about the people, things and quirky habits that keep them -- and their shows -- alive. Vince Gilligan, Breaking Bad (AMC) The show that inspired me to write: Gilligan: The Twilight Zone because it was so marvelously constructed. My TV mentor: Gilligan: Definitely Chris Carter, who created The X-Fil ... [Continua a leggere]

A woman weeps when she discovers the husband she thought died years ago in combat overseas is actually alive; she has mourned him and remarried. What now? A female agent weaves her way through a crowd at a political rally, desperately tracking an ex-soldier she thinks is about to open fire on government and military officials. A veteran, disillusioned with the military (which he believes betrayed him), hides in plain sight while planning a series a high-level assassinations. It sure sounds like Homeland. But those are scenes from "Unrequited," a season-four episode of The X-Files &m ... [Continua a leggere]

You don’t have to believe in UFOs or government conspiracies to write for “The X-Files.” “We’re all fairly agnostic on all those subjects…,” says Vince Gilligan, co-executive producer and writer, in a recent phone interview from Los Angeles about what it’s like writing for a hot TV show. “I don’t disbelieve in any of this stuff we write about, but there’s a big difference in not disbelieving it and actively believing it.” “The X-Files” heads into its seventh and perhaps final season this Sunday, N ...

In season seven’s first stand-alone, Vince Gilligan tells the tale of a monster’s tragic eating disorder. Vince Gilligan has everyone fooled. The X-Files writer/co-executive producer best known for quirky episodes like Seasons Four’s “Small Potatoes” and Season Five’s “Bad Blood” projects an unmistakable Southern charm; in person, he is amiable, easy-going, good-natured. But lurking somewhere deep within his psyche is a villainous imp. There must be. There’s simply no other explanation for how someone so unassuming could send ... [Continua a leggere]

The “X-Files’” Vince Gilligan may be a big-time Hollywood writer, but at heart he’s just a Southern boy. Gilligan reflects on peach milkshakes, Hardee’s biscuits and all things Southern. To X-Philes Vince Gilligan is revered as the “writing god” responsible for such memorable episodes as “Pusher,” “Paper Hearts,” and “Bad Blood.” To those who work with him he’s just Vince, the Southerner from Farmville, Va., who lives in Los Angeles, but still considers himself a Virginian. “I don’t ge ...

X-Files actors live in mortal fear of it: the big kiss-off from series creator Chris Carter. The bell doesn’t toll often for regular characters (among the unlucky few: Deep Throat, X and Bill Mulder), but the possibility hovers, like an alien spaceship, over the cast. For one actor, the phone rang days before shooting began on a momentous two-parter (airing Feb. 7 and 14), a sweeps event that Fox is trumpeting as “The X Files conspiracy…exposed!” Divulging the identity of the doomed player would, of course, ruin the second episode’s penultimate shoc ...

Neither of the show’s two main stars have returned yet. David Duchovny, who plays Fox Mulder with a deadpan aplomb, is due to return first, and his Emmy nominated co-star Gillian Anderson, who plays the scientific and pragmatic Dana Scully, returns the following week; both spent the summer hiatus filming feature films (Return To Me and House Of Mirth, respectively). But you can already feel the energy as the crew gears up for a new season. For the moment filming is limited to a scene in a psychiatrist’s office, an otherwise ordinary looking set with perfectly slanted ... [Continua a leggere]
