Well The X-Files heyday was back in the 90s and things have been quiet since then bar a couple sub-standard films that were largely forgotten by most people except fans probably. Times have moved on, that's what happens when you wait too long for a revival in some cases. And even with the new series, although it may be good its still competing with other great shows.

Nope times have not moved on :-) it was a gigantic hit beyond words when it came back 2 years ago for Season 10 (and now Season 11). The facts speak for themselves. No one has forgot the show, the viewing figures are staggering. Most watched show in TV history accross the world for the 10th Season two years ago, broke multiple records on multiple channels across the entire world. Something like 50 million + were tuning in. It pretty much demolished every other tv show everywhere in the world. It got bigger over time then, not forgotten. So demand is far more than it ever has been now cons are the in thing these days.

natedammit Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Hmm. Is ketchup a sauce though? We may refer to it as 'tomato sauce', but surely a sauce is used more liberally than ketchup which is more of a liquid for dipping things into. You wouldn't describe mustard as a sauce would you? It is a tricky one though. It seems like a case for... MulderandScullybackontopicyay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RomeroSavini Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Google is your friend (unless you upset it) A lot of sources, but heres one. I think it ended up doing better than this link says as it went further over the world months later. https://screenrant-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/screenrant.com/x-files-revival-ratings-records/amp/?amp_js_v=a2&_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQECAE4AQ%3D%3D#referrer=https://www.google.com&_tf=From %1%24s&share=https%3A%2F%2Fscreenrant.com%2Fx-files-revival-ratings-records%2F Mind you even Channel 5 in the UK had amazing viewing figures.

Bet the BBC felt like idiots getting outbid on that. I doubt it; they aren't as big on US imports as they were back in the 90s. And even a big hit for 5 wouldn't even make the top 10 for BBC2. It's all relative - even the big successes like The Walking Dead & Game of Thrones don't have that big an audience in the UK compared to mainstream shows, but no one can deny they are huge. X-Files was huge for BBC2 back in the day, so it moved to BBC1. But there's more channels now... and Netflix etc. Back to this event, maybe you can have too much of a good thing. Its going to be a tough year to beat - unless they can get big Avenger, or big Star Wars guests. People have been asking for David forever, but if they've already spent diamond prices on others it creates a dilemma for them. Even Chris hasn't sold out yet.
