One beloved show that is gaining a lot of momentum for a return is
The X-Files. Looks like Fox is eyeing a limited series run that would
see Molder and Scully back fighting the good fight for the future. And
it's not like they have a shortage of loose ends to tie up.
Here is a list of three things that author (of this text) would personally love to find some
closure on. Admittedly there are much more than three - but since this
is reportedly a limited series we'll keep it short.
Colonists & The Black Oil
One of the best and creepiest
ongoing plots was the infectious black oil that could turn anyone into a
zombie-like creature under the control of aliens intent on taking over
the universe. They even were using bees to spread it! Bees!
The last we saw of the black oil it was still infecting people and
didn't show any signs of being stopped. Where do we stand now? What
happened to those weird faceless guys? Are we still being colonized and
is the Syndicate still sending bees to pollinate our food with black
oil? The aliens were supposed to arrive in 2012 according to the Smoking
Man, what happened?
The Lone Gunman
The trio known as the Lone Gunman were always
welcome sights when they appeared on the show, even if their short
lived spin-off didn't fare that well. In fact, these guys were ahead of
their times. Now, in the age of Snowden and Assange, these guys could be
more relevant and helpful to Mulder and Scully than ever. They're not
just comic relief anymore!
The different stories that these guys
could have been attached to in the years since we saw them last are
endless. What have they been up to? Who have they been hacking? Do they
know if the Cigarette Man is really dead - what does that surveillance
footage tell us?
The Syndicate
The Syndicate, the Smoking Man's organization,
was behind just about everything it seemed. They were plotting the alien
colonization, killing Mulder's sister, planting chips and using
nanotechnology to get up in everyone's business. Evil!
So did the Smoking Man really die or what? Or did he start helping
Scully and Mulder like he seemed to be leaning towards doing in the end?
Is there a new Syndicate that's even more evil than the old one? Are
they affiliated with my telephone provider - because I think they might
be really evil.
