The X-Files: Glen and Darin Morgan Come Home

During the X-Files writers panel at EW Fest, Glen and Darin Morgan discussed their re-opening of The X-Files.

I think the things [The X-Files] did early on kind of came true.

The X-Fileswas a thing I always thought about creatively, Glen said.

Theres no show you’ve got the option to do that on.

I thought about doing it as a feature, but that world has changed.

So I had an opportunity withThe X-Files.

This is the only place you’ve got the option to tell that story.

Its not like youre trying to take today and cram it into back then, Glen Morgan said.

A lot of that stuff that we thought was kind of goofy came true.

Were the only losers who didnt have anything else to do, Glen joked.
