But it has to be mythology based--I want to find out what happened to Mulder and Scully's baby, damn it....

Maybe they could find the Gunmen, maybe they didn't die after all...and don't forget the Smoking Man....

And it must have Skinner. I miss me some Skinner....

Very good news, if true. The Smoking Man, alas, was killed off just a little too thoroughly. The Lone Gunmen? You bet!I can--indeed, have--thought of several ways they could come back, despite their being buried at Arlington. As for the whole mythos--it should be done better this time. The original series drew it out just a little too long, until it lost much of its impact, and there were few surprises at the end, I thought--they chose the obvious explanations... Also--and I might be a minority of one here--I'd like to at least see Robert Patrick. He was/is a superb actor, and I think he'd be FBI Director by now in the X-Files world...
