“a betty back in the day”…maybe she is soured by the last 2 seasons, (as were we) a.k.a “Chris & David fallout.” You should remember the whole experience foremost, and that for 7 years you were part of genius in Carter, and honed by a great talent in Duchovny. Television can be entertaining if your selective. Sixteen hours, and 3 months off IS brutal to anyone…but it gave us your best. THANK YOU!

I’m sorry to read Gillian Anderson’s comments. It’s too bad she couldn’t have left with a more positive light on her experience. This woman was a part of a show that made television history. Most fans would consider it a dream come true just to have a chance to meet her or David Duchovny or to be on the set for a day. She got the chance to be part of tv history for nine years…and get paid pretty good for doing it! Try punching a clock in a factory for nine years at a fraction of the salary and tell me if you still feel that way Ms. Anderson!

As an avid X-files fan it’s really disappointing to hear that Anderson didn’t like her job, or appreciate the fact that because of her long time commitment to the X-files she is part of history forever! She was perfect in the part, and did a good job faking it for that long, but I think her ungrateful attitude is more damaging to society than watching tv. I also thought they gave up on the lone gunmen and Millenium to soon!

I just read the other comments on Gillian Anderson’s statement. And I must remind everyone that with all long-time relationships there will always be an up side and a down side. Ms. Anderson has always expressed her appreciation in doing the serie and what it meant to her career. All she was doing was addressing her opinion on her experience in doing it.

Well, I think she’s pretty much forgotten that the only reason she can get another acting job or the only reason she’s been established in film and television is because of the X-Files. I think she should be thankful for her time or she’d still be going to auditions trying to get a job. I really dont remember seeing her in anything else. I think she owes that much to the creators of the show … a thank you for making my career exist.

Sounds like Ms Anderson doesn’t mind biting the hand that fed her for so many years.
She should think about the fact that the only way she can get a headline anymore is by writers mentioning the X-Files. How many of her other projects is she remembered for???

Wait, so she basically says that she was helping to destroy society for money. Ok. Sounds as lovely as her verbage.
