The X-Files Season 12 cancelled?
It will be for Gillian Anderson. The series co-star has reaffirmed her earlier assertion that the upcoming 11th season will be her last, per TV Insider:
“I’ve said from the beginning this is it for me. I was a bit surprised by people’s [shocked] reaction to my announcement…because my understanding was that this was a single season.”
Premiering Jan. 3, will The X-Files Season 11 also be the last in the series as a whole? Anderson offered:
“Given the importance The X-Files had in people’s lives, it’s great to have one more opportunity to end on a high.”
FOX has not announced The X-Files Season 11 as the last in the series, leaving the door open to Season 12, without Anderson, but also cancellation.
Would you watch The X-Files without Anderson, or is the show dead without Scully?
Stay tuned…

I learned my lesson with seasons 8 & 9. There’s no show without both Scully AND Mulder.
Karen says
I agree. If they aren’t both there, it’s not worth watching.

I think Fox could develop a X-Files series without Scully that would be interesting. It may not be exactly the same but could follow along the same format with similar characters and story lines. I am willing to give it a chance and think it would be better than a lot of the crap they regularly put on.
Speedy says
A spinoff with a new partner and with Mulder being the voice of reason would be an excellent step in the right direction 😉 – ie new girl even more out there than him.
Marsha says
A spinoff with Mulder as reason is a lot better than that stuff with Robert H. and Annabelle Gish. Oh god was that BAD! Mulder and Scully are the X-Files but if she goes, a spinoff is the right direction. They already tried an X-Files with completely different cast; it flopped. But with a new cast and Mulder as the teacher on how to investigate an X-File, it could take off.
Kay B. says
I love the X-Files and I would definitely watch even without Gillian Anderson as Scully, It would be great if they could find a replacement character for her though. I think Gillian has gotten a bit to full of herself as of late. I also do NOT like her new hair color, it is very distracting. Mulder taking on a new partner is totally feasible and, like other resonders, could be better than most shows airing now. Please give it a shot.
Jodie Vandermaal says
It was always about Mulder, Sorry Scully, but the show will do more than “survive”.
Jerry says
Well, since the x-files, like everything else, it seems, coming out of Hollywood, has now seen fit to interject political cheap shots at the President as part of the show in season 11, I have decided to cancel the series for myself personally, and for those who will have an angry response to my comment, save your time. I won’t see it. I’ve already voted.
