If you’re an X-Files fan, you’ll want to make your way to Los Angeles this November for a special charity event featuring Gillian Anderson (seen here at the recent “The Age of Stupid” event in NY) and executive producer and writer Frank Spotnitz. The event, which is being run by IBG.Inc. will feature a moderated Q&A panel with Frank Spotnitz, Gillian Anderson and other TBA members of “The X-Files” team*. A limited number of VIP tickets, available for $125, can be purchased here beginning September 22, 2009:

If I were in L.A, I’d be all over this. X-files is one of the greatest shows ever made and its nice to see it still being celebrated.

Do Fringe and The X-Files take place in the same fictional universe?

Fringe isn’t exactly the most original show on TV. Critics and audiences have been comparing it to The X-Files since it premiered last season. Like The X-Files, Fringe offers up creepy cases of the week and an overarching sci-fi conspiracy/mystery plot that helps build the show’s rich mythology. In The X-Files, the conspiracy thread had something to do with shady government officials working with aliens and black tar – or something like that. In Fringe, it’s called “The Pattern,” a series of unexplainable events all seemingly connected to one William Bell and his company, Massive Dynamic.
Show creators Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and J.J. Abrams have acknowledged the influence of The X-Files on their show, but do Fringe and The X-Files actually take place in the same fictional universe?

During last week’s premiere, there was a reference to the “X designation” during Broyles’ meeting with the senators about the future of the Fringe division. It seemed like the senator was comparing how “the old X designation” and the Fringe division were both draining federal funds by investigating the unknown and unexplained. Was the senator talking about Mulder and Scully’s X-Files?

Interesting take. I would love to see them call Mulder in on a case.

The Houston Chronicle has published a great article about David Duchovny discovering his love for the X-Files. The article mentions the excellent fan made video below. Frank Spotnitz showed Duchovny the video while on set, and David admits “It was intensely romantic, and it almost brought tears to my eyes”.

The article also talks about him embracing the Mulder-Scully relationship after years of trying to downplay it. The internet has been flooded with articles and brief interviews about the X-files in the past few weeks but this one of the better ones.
