The End of The X-Files

Posted by Hemos on from the the-truth-is-no-longer-out-there dept.

fonixmunkee writes "CNN is running this story that says the cult TV classic, "The X-Files," shall be no longer after this season. I have been a huge fan of this show since it started in '93, so I'm quite saddened by it's projected departure." The story originally showed up in Daily Variety, saying that Chris Carter wants to move on to other projects.

  1. When did it Jump the shark? by dbretton · · Score: 2, Redundant

    This is intended to stir up a little discussion:

    When do you think X-Files jumped the shark?
    I say it was toast once Mulder left.

    There's a nifty little website out there called Jump The Shark ... "a Chronicle of the moments a TV shows goes downhill" ...

    For me, I'm not sure when that momemnt happened, but I just know I haven't been watching it for the past couple of years. To me, the show lost it's "Twilight-Zone-Like" playfulness somewhere down the line and is now just another tedious soap-opera with a monster waiting to jump out of a closet.

    Then again, I liked the original Lone-Gunman, and lost interest after only a couple of episodes.
