It’s true that we’ve had some conversations on X-Files. We’re hopeful of being able to bring that back at some point.

And what’s that about availability? David Duchovny was tied to Californication until last year, and while he has the “event series” Aquarius coming up on NBC, that is a 13-episode limited series, rather than an ongoing thing.

Gillian Anderson has been busy doing The Fall for the BBC, but a third season of that show is not confirmed. She also has a significant role in the new season of Hannibal, having been upped from a recurring character in the show’s first two seasons to a regular in the third. So we’ll have to wait to see what sort of decisions are made there.

We don’t know anything about what a revival of the show would look like, how long it might run, or what story it might cover.
