Wow, we have crossed 1121 “likes”! Thank you for your trust, X-philes! Like 1013, 1121 is one of those significant reoccurring numbers in , corresponding to Chris Carter’s wife Dori Pierson’s birthday. It is Samantha Mulder’s birthday too. See a list of 1013 and 1121 mentions, beginning from the very pilot, here:

turns 26 today, as the pilot aired this day in 1993!
Here is the oldest entry in our TenThirteen interviews database, dating from…August 1993, before the pilot had even aired and when Fox had not even made a full season order. Young 37-year-old Chris Carter said:

https://www.eatthecorn.com/itw/chicago-sun-times/

“There is no gunfire in the first six episodes,” he said. “I’m really concerned about violence in our society. There’s too much violence on television. Producers should be responsible, to a point, while telling an exciting story. Like ‘Murder, She Wrote,’ we’ll show the results of violence, not the act.”

Fond memories of ABC’s “The Night Stalker,” a 1974-75 series with Darren McGavin as a reporter tracking vampires and werewolves, gave Carter a “leaping-off point” when he started developing “The X-Files” last year. “That was a good, scary show,” he said. “And it aired on Friday nights, too.”

But “The Night Stalker” vanished after one season. Fox has ordered 13 episodes of “The X-Files.” In its most-unwanted time slot, it could be an ex-series by December.

“I’d rather air right after ‘The Simpsons,’ ” Carter said. “But I know Fox would never put me there.”

The new videogame hinted at by Chris Carter last year is upon us! It is developed by @[784484218558997:274:Storyscape] in collaboration with FOX, and consists of an interactive narrative/dialogue together with animation, for Android. The look of it reminds me a lot of last year’s “Deep State” Android game, but with more storytelling and less click-for-points. You play characters who come across Mulder and Scully and Skinner (and Doggett?) — this looks like a “next generation” story where new FBI agents are trained by the older.

–> It is written by Sean Kelley McKeever (who did comics prior). Interview: https://www.storyscape.com/en/blog/meet-the-agents

–> For now, only people in Canada and New Zealand can play the first 3 parts, “Trial by Ice”, but as with any game on the internet there’s already a gameplay video out there to get a taste:

As 2019 draws to a close and post-revival excitement dies down, the biggest development on front by far is the growing concern for preservation – in the form of The X-Files Preservation Collection
With promise of big things to come in 2020!
Happy new year!

From Jim and Kelly’s welcome post to their preservation group:

” The X-Files Preservation Collection is now the home to many iconic pieces from the series and movies. We have thousands of screen used items and we are constantly searching for items to add. Once an item is here it remains here and we do all we can to preserve it.

The purpose of the collection is to Preserve the history of the series and to share it with other fans and create new fans. We are currently in the process of registering the collection as a Not for Profit LLC and will be opening a museum in 2020. We cannot wait to share our Preservation Collection with all of you. We have many plans and ideas to make it more of an experience than your usual museum. “

“To me, their journey is not done.” “I don’t think Chris intended season 11 to be the end.” – Frank Spotnitz on potentially more Mulder and Scully
“I was surprised by seasons 10 and 11. […] I’m not convinced that at least some of that wasn’t going to be twisted yet again if there had been another season.” – on William’s father
“A lot of the things that Chris and I talked about are sort of in conflict now with what happened in the last two seasons. […] I don’t really want to give away what I would do because part of me thinks that I would still have a chance to do it.” – on continuing the mythology

My new must-have goal in fandom is to know what were Carter & Spotnitz’s original plans for continuing the mythology!

However I was surprised with the S10 soundtrack when it came out, so we will see!

The Big Light social network is closing in just a few days. This was on Frank Spotnitz’s website that was launched in the run-up to I Want To Believe. It was flooded by fans and held some interesting discussions, but quite suddenly it was completely deserted around 2011, as news of an “XF3” film never came. These were the innocent times, when fans still optimistically fantasized what would be next for Mulder & Scully!

Mark Snow’s music! Coming Summer 2019 from @[56031953754:274:La-La Land Records]:
X FILES VOL 4
X FILES SEASON 11

Although Season 11 relied heavily on the soundtracks of IWTB and Season 10, there were some interesting cues, in particular in “Familiar” and “Nothing Lasts Forever”.

Volume 4 of the “original series” music is rumored to be the last one, so I hope it can deliver, with so much material to choose from! I expect it to have at least episodes not yet covered like Duane Barry/Ascension, Apocypha, Never Again or Memento Mori — but also I hope some cues from already covered episodes that still have some great unreleased material, like Conduit, The Erlenmeyer Flask, Talitha Cumi, Paper Hearts, Redux… and more!

Check out the community-compiled list of requests from 150 episodes (!) that I hope La-La Land considered on the website:

For those wondering what happened to game on Android: after they released their “case 8” last November, development of new material has been put on hold.

I was interested in understanding why this new surge of conspiracism has appeared, knowing that historically, times of tumult and social upheaval tend to lead to a parallel surge in conspiracy thinking. I found some of my answer in our increasingly rigid class structure, one that leaves many people feeling locked into their circumstances and desperate to find someone to blame. I found it in rising disenfranchisement, a feeling many people have that they are shut out of systems of power, pounding furiously at iron doors that will never open to admit them. I found it in the frustratingly opaque US healthcare system, a vanishing social safety net, a political environment that seizes cynically on a renewed distrust of the news media.

What happens when an author re-writes a different author’s story 20 years later and sends confusing signals about rape (medical or otherwise) at a time of #metoo? You get awkward questions like this one, where WBDavis has to defend his original ideas for the CSM…

“Now just a moment here. I accept that Methuselah got handsy with Hilda in Sabrina, with that context. But I’m not sure that the Smoking Man got handsy with Scully. I think he was devoted to her, and admired her and found the common connection. I found a dinner scene where he confesses his loneliness to her quite human. But if you’re referring to what might have happened in the bedroom, I’m of the opinion that I did nothing wrong in that bedroom.

I mean what are you going to do? Somebody is unconscious, and you want to put them to bed, so you get your housekeeper to come and help put them to bed. That’s all. That’s all I thought ever happened. Smoking Man has many evil habits, but I don’t think that’s one of them.”

If we do and we can make the economics work, we’d look at them all.” #TCA2019

Happy #1013, happy birthday Mr. Carter! Here is a great panel interview (IBG – used to be pay exclusive) with great Anderson-Duchovny interaction, from the remote year 2011 – before the revivals and when people were still asking for a third film! And already Carter didn’t remember some details like what would have been the alternative ending for season 7. Carter says there’s one thing he would change but doesn’t say what: did he change that in revival? What was it? Friendly aliens twist? M&S breakup? CSM alive? William not Mulder’s?

22 years ago today, Chris Carter created a series and a character that would forever change my life. Frank Black and Millennium were a gift to me as a person and an actor.
All around the world, even to this day, fans still remember and love this series. I want to thank Chris, the entire cast and crew and especially the fans for their support of Millennium.

Anybody up for bidding some serious money to own the Alien Bounty Hunter’s bee-covered suit, or the pod from Fight the Future, or some icky cancerous body parts from Leonard Betts? You can also bid on some #TwinPeaks items!

2018 was an important year. It is very likely we saw the very last of , with a season 11 that had some genuinely good moments, and others…less so. The fandom blossomed in another gasp of activity before dissolving yet again. Also, I made a twenty-year-old dream a reality when I got to visit filming locations in Vancouver! Eat The Corn has followed all these events — and still has a few articles in store for 2019, but little beyond that. Endings indeed.

This is an image from what very well may be the last making of (Implanted Memories: 25 Years of The X-Files), on top of an end scene that best fits a finale in these two nostalgia-heavy revival seasons (The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat): an homage to The X-Files’ predecessor The Twilight Zone, and a self-conscious admission that times have changed since the series was in tune with its time. Goodbye and thank you!
