Oh, I believe in the X-Files. Hundreds of fans filled bleachers and lined Hollywood Blvd. to catch a glimpse of the creators and stars of The X-Files: I Want to Believe at its premiere Wednesday night. Being a huge nerd fan myself, I felt like I had stepped into some alternate dimension X-Files case — it was truly surreal. I walked the red carpet and the fans went crazy as we caught b-roll of people wearing Mulder and Scully t-shirts or waving homemade signs and our own TV Guide cover with Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny. My fellow "X-Philes" were thrilled to see a true fan working the carpet, and rewarded me with thunderous applause. I felt like a star myself. After our crews got in place, fans were treated to a special press conference with Gillian, David, Frank Spotnitz, and Chris Carter, moderated by Entertainment Weekly's Whitney Pastorek (lucky girl!). Fans got to ask questions for 15 minutes, and early birds who had been given a black bracelet in the bleachers were p...

The X-Files Movie by Diyah Pera/20th Century Fox
As reported earlier this month by TVGuide.com, The X Files will be featured at the Paley Television Festival on March 26. The night will offer a retrospective of the nine-season series and will also show the highly anticipated movie trailer. While the new X Files flick isn't being released until July 25, there's a ton of buzz about the return of two of TV's most beloved characters, Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson), to the silver screen. Though the plot is under tight wraps, we do know that the still-untitled second movie looks like a scary supernatural (non-alien) thriller. Joining Duchovny and Anderson will be Amanda Peet and rapper-turned-actor Xzibit as FBI agents who are also investigating the case.So are you a former or current X-Phile? Do you have all nine seasons on DVD or do you catch the reruns on Sci Fi or TNT whenever you can? Do you have burning questions about the show itself or about the upcoming movie? If so, you may be in luck, because TVGuide.co...
