X-Files Revival: The Premiere Date Is out There

Fox has announced its premiere dates for the next TV season, and for the first time since 2002, The X-Files appears on the list with a premiere date for the new, limited series! Are you excited? GET EXCITED.

Now that you’ve reached the appropriate level of excitement—which is “vibrating as though you just drank your entire week’s worth of coffee at once”—The X-Files will premiere… Sunday January 24, 2016! Yes, I know that seems like a painfully long time to wait, but it’s on the schedule! And, it’s getting a two-night premiere event:

The next mind-bending chapter of The X-Files debuts with a special two-night event beginning Sunday, Jan. 24 (10:00-11:00 PM ET/7:00-8:00 PM PT), following the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, and continuing with its time period premiere on Monday, Jan. 25 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). The thrilling, six-episode event series, helmed by creator/executive producer Chris Carter and starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI Agents FOX MULDER and DANA SCULLY, marks the momentous return of the Emmy- and Golden Globe Award-winning pop culture phenomenon, which remains one of the longest-running sci-fi series in network television history.

It’s really happening! Party time! Rock out!
