Synopsis:
MULDER AND SCULLY INVESTIGATE A DOCTOR WITH UNSCRUPULOUS PRACTICES ON PART TWO OF THE TWO-NIGHT SEASON PREMIERE OF “THE X-FILES” MONDAY, JANUARY 25, ON FOX
In an Australian exclusive, Rove & Sam sat down with Fox Mulder himself, David Duchovny, to delve into the new X-Files series! Besides the copious flirting between he and Rove, Duchovny reveals how much nudity we can expect in the new incarnation of The X-Files. Jan 18, 2016 Listen below
For years, "X-Files" fans have believed, and now the 6-episode reboot is about a week away. If you haven't been abducted by the hype train yet, get ready because David Duchovny is about to welcome you aboard.
The actor tells The Huffington Post the new episodes are "as big as any of the episodes" the show's ever done.
"The first one starts with a bang. I was amazed at how big it is, how big it looks. It looks like a summer movie, and it’s an hour of television," Duchovny says.
The creator of The X-Files is proud of his new six-episode limited series reviving the show for Fox, but admits the franchise’s second feature film probably wasn’t the best concept or timing. Chris Carter first told reporters at the Television Critics Association’s press tour in Pasadena on Friday that he had secretly written a third X-Files movie, but also he felt that if that ever gets greenlit, the new movie would have to be very different than the second film in the franchise, 2008’s oft-maligned The X-Files: I Want to Believe.
It's time to believe again. The X-Files' return to TV is upon us and to celebrate the long-awaited new adventures of Mulder and Scully, Fox brought the show to the 2016 TCA Winter Press Tour. David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Joel McHale and series creator Chris Carterwere on hand to field questions and tease the reopening of The X-Files. Things started out just as you'd expect with Anderson simply asking "How's my sex scene?"
The X-Files kicks off its six-episode return with a mythology-heavy episode, but things quickly change to monster of the week format with another mythology episode to close things out. "That was the signature of the show," Carter explained about the mix of episodes. "We became known for our range...we did that always in the run of the original series, but in this case, there are only 6 episodes, so we had to do it in a much shorter arc."
'The X-Files': David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson joke about their chemistry, history: TV Press Tour
In a loose, entertaining press conference for "The X-Files" event series that debuts Jan. 24 on Fox, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson playfully bantered about their chemistry as FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.
Duchovny, Anderson and "X-Files" creator Chris Carter were on hand, along with guest star Joel McHale, to discuss the six-episode "X-Files" with reporters and critics during the TV Winter 2016 Press Tour at the Langham Huntington hotel.

David Duchovny Says Gillian Anderson Has the Tougher Job on 'The X-Files' Reboot. The Golden Globe winner gushed about his co-star on the set of the new 'The X-Files.'
Aired on: January 2016.

The statement "absence makes the heart grow fonder" certainly rings true in the case of The X-Files. The groundbreaking sci-fi horror drama went off the air in May 2002 and spawed two films - one in 1998 and a second in 2008 - but the return of the beloved series has garnered so much fan love that it has turned into one of the TV's most anticipated events of the winter. "I think of it as a 13-year commercial break," series creator Chris Carter said in a statement. "The good news is, the world has only gotten that much stranger, a perfect time to tell these six stories."
The six-episode series reunites FBI special agents Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) as they investigate unexplained cases, or "X-Files," attempting to explain the unexplainable. "I don't think any of us were interested in just doing an exercise in nostalgia," says Duchovny, who describes the limited series as "familiar, but new." When we rejoin the lives of our favorite truth seekers, neither one is the FBI. Anderson reveals, "Scully is working as a doctor, and Mulder is...well, what he's doing is questionable." Mulder lives in a Ted Kaczynski-type shack, and Duchovny laughs, "He's not working, he's not cutting his hair, he's not shaving. All the hallmarks of a man gone to seed."
David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson will be together on Jimmy Kimmel Live on January 12, 2016.

X-Files new episodes behind the scenes in Vancouver. David and Gillian interviews on Extra.
It’s been 14 years since David Duchovny‘s truth-seeking, pencil-tossing, Scully-crushing FBI Special Agent Fox William “Spooky” Mulder last appeared on the small screen, a drought that will end on Sunday, Jan. 24 with the premiere of Fox’s six-episode revival of The X-Files.
In the following Q&A with TVLine, the 55-year-old actor — and current star of NBC’s Aquarius — reflects on his X-Files past “difficulties” with leading lady Gillian Anderson (yes, we said past), present affection for playing Mulder and the future of the franchise that made him a household name.Wednesday, October 28
Couch Sessions: David Duchovny how he ended up making a rock album - Oct 21, 2015
David Duchovny talks about how he ended up making a rock album, creativity (or the lack thereof) in Hollywood, and the fact that he REALLY wants to tell you about the X-Files revival, but he would have to kill you if he did.
I’ve always been a fan of David Duchovny. His sullen, dark, cool guy persona always seemed realer, more relatable than the usual pretty boy carbon copies that Hollywood is famous for. It also didn’t hurt that he was the star of one of my favorite shows, the classic X-Files series.
2015 has been a big year for David Duchovny. Best known for his performances as Special Agent Fox Mulder on the X-Files, and Hank Moody on Californication, this year, Duchovny has put out the New York Times bestseller Holy Cow: A Modern Day Dairy Tale, stars in the upcoming six-episode revival of The X-Files, returned to network TV with the NBC series Aquarius and released the alt-rock album, Hell or Highwater. (cue record scratching) Wait, what?
It sounded like you drove this project, like you called Chris [Carter] and said, “I want to do this.” Tell us about this.
David Duchovny: That’s not true, though. He’s joking. He’s very deadpan. How did it happen? We’ve always talked about it. The three of us [himself, Carter and Anderson] talked occasionally about doing more. We did the movie in 2008, I think it was. And then there didn’t seem to be any appetite from Fox for another movie. I assumed it was dead. People talked about doing more on television, and I’d say of course not, because I thought of television as 22 episodes, 25 episodes. I’ll never do that again. I’ll never do that again. So, I assumed it was dead. And then with the ascendance of cable and the new model of the cable season and the limited season run, and networks catching on to that idea…it became obvious to Chris and I that maybe we can do it on television. Maybe this is actually a really good format for telling a 10-hour story, an eight-hour story, a six-hour story.
"I jumped at the idea when I found out the actors were interested," Carter tells THR. "I can tell you the idea of a reboot wasn't the way I wanted to go. I didn't want to come back to do a victory lap, to do sequels, or anything like that. I wanted fresh, new material and that's what we've done."
It's been a whirlwind year for The X-Files creator Chris Carter.
Fox first announced its hopes to revive the groundbreaking series during its winter TCA session; the order was official by March. Because of stars David Duchovny (Mulder) and Gillian Anderson's (Scully) busy schedules and other commitments, the series started filming only a few months later. And about six weeks after production wrapped, the team premiered the first hour with splashy — and high-stakes — debuts at MIPCOM and New York Comic Con.

WATCH IGN Interview: David Duchovny: "He appears to be diagnosed depressive by his wife" (another video!)
IGN: It seems like Mulder is maybe a little down on his luck when we first meet up with him. Would you agree?
David: Yeah. He appears to be diagnosed depressive by his wife!
IGN: [Laughs] Are we gonna get into the background of what happended between Mulder and Scully?
David: I don't think so. I think that's for other shows. Our show is about action, it's about mystery, it's about wonder, it's not about she said he said. So it's important people like the relationship. The relationship plays a part...
