David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson discuss the return of The X-Files

On how being a father has changed him

I love acting. I love show business. I love the movies. I love television. But it doesn’t mean anything compared to my kids.  It’s just something that takes over when you have kids.  It’s like when you work you have a call sheet and number one, two, three, four on the call sheet, and it’s like, everything moves down. When you have a kid, everything in life takes a back seat.  My daughter, Madelaine West, is a woman now. She is 18. She has a small part in the last episode. My son, Kyd Miller, is 15.

XF Season 11 International Airings on Hiatus Too

xfilesnews:

There has been some concern that international stations would air new episodes from Season 11 while the U.S. was on hiatus for the Olympics. FOX confirmed to XFN 2 weeks ago that the hiatus applies to all international airings as well.

FOXTEL in Australia corrected a mistake that said Episode 7 would be airing there this week. It will not be. We have reached out to FOX again to re-confirm the international air dates and will share that as soon as we have it. But for now it is safe to assume that we will all be waiting a few more weeks.

“I love the people that I’ve worked with; I love Gillian and Chris and I want them to be doing what they want to do,”

“There’s no way I want Gillian to be doing the show if she doesn’t want to be doing it, and yet, I want people to do work that they’re really good at, so we’ll see what happens.”   

“To me, the unfortunate thing about Gillian saying that she was done is that there’s kind of a mourning sense about the whole season, when in fact, what I’d love is that people really recognise that these are 10 excellent episodes —  like, way better than the six we did a few years ago.”

This is my beef too, DD.  It’s been a lousy distraction:

On what will happen to The X-Files now that Gillian Anderson is leaving the show – (from interview with David Duchovny, Riff Magazine, Feb. 2018)

“I don’t know, and I’m sorry that that’s the discussion of the show at this point. I’d rather the people just enjoy the episodes that we were able to give them for this run, and I’m not going to worry about what’s going to happen next. … I’d rather look at it in the frame of here’s 10 great episodes of television for you.”    … DD
