The X-Files: Cancelled? Season 12 Possible But Not Coming Soon

by Cindy McLennan, May 14, 2018

The X-Files TV show on FOX: canceled or renewed?

(Shane Harvey / FOX)

When Gillian Anderson announced she was done with the series — ahead of the season 11 premiere — we knew this day was coming. The X-Files TV show on FOX is cancelled, at least for now, Deadline reports. To be fair to the network, they were clear the revival was for limited 10th and 11th seasons. However, all is not lost. While Chris Carter has said that, while he never imagined the series without Anderson as FBI Special Agent Dana Scully, he is open to future seasons, with or without her.

A FOX sci-fi mystery thriller, The X-Files also stars David Duchovny as FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder. Together, Mulder and Scully investigate unexplained or “X-Files” cases — which have answers involving paranormal phenomena. Mitch Pileggi, William B. Davis, Annabeth Gish, Lauren Ambrose, Robbie Amell, Veronica Cartwright, Chris Owens, and Dean Haglund returned for season 11. They were joined by newcomers including Barbara Hershey and Haley Joel Osment. 

The X-Files: A Look at the Ratings

The 11th season of The X-Files averaged a .96 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.742 million viewers. Compared to season 10, that’s down by 69% and 60%, respectively. Find out how The X-Files stacks up against the other FOX TV shows.

What do you think? Are you still a fan of The X-Files TV series? Do you think it will come back for season 12, some day? Let us know, below.

I love x-files and 100% think it should renew…but…the problem is they try to be all things to all demographics…like a radio station that plays both rock and country and bluegrass. The alien and gov/tech stuff is one thing, but the horror side of scifi is another, and a bad mix. Some shows I just can’t watch or wish I hadn’t tried to watch because of the needless gore. Look at what DOES make box office bank and stick to that appeal please? Trek, StarWars, the Marvel series…and stick to that, maybe the whole Snowden angle, there’s tons of NEW… Read more »

I was so happy to have X Files back on since I was a big fan. I hope it remains on even if it changes network.

Oh surprise me – yet another delay to get a new season. That is called killing it softly but surely, or at least they try really really hard to do so. FOX was surprised there was even still a following after delaying for so long, but hey, we, x-filers are tough and resilient. But does it have to be so hard to bring a show that people love? Sure I’d prefer to see Gillian there, but Duchovny left for a while, and the content kept it going, and the show was still good. So I’m guessing in this day and… Read more »

I have been an avid fan from season 1 to season 11. I hope there will be a season 12. Mulder and Scully get better with age. Just keep on keeping on. Watching re-runs as I type this. Doggett and Reyes should come back if Scully doesn’t come back and it will be OK if Scully comes back. All 4 made a great investigative team.

im one of the biggerst fans of the X-Files, but i think it should never been renewed, it didnt give much tension like the old ones, except the last episode, Gillian Anderson is right not coming back.

They should renew X Files from more seasons, even bad season is 10x better than useless POC from CW, like Arrow, Flash and other kids TV shows from that network.

fox didn’t say that the show was cancelled there just hasn’t been any converstions about season 12 hopefully there will be in 2019 even if Gillian is not in the show it could be a really good storyline to search for scully like mulder was in season 8 and she could appear in an episode or 2. William along side mulder and maybe Doggett or Reyes in the new season to.

We already knew that it was the end.

Perhaps wait a year or so and see if Anderson changes her mind.

Please keep ‘The X-Files’ Show and Do Not Cancel them! Many people Love the X-Files and we have waited for the return of the TV show. The story lines are great and many I have noticed were based on actual cases. Some of the stories I recognized from the 1960’s ‘Fate’ magazine as well as other true UFO stories. Please Keep the Show and it is great to watch Fox Mulder being fun with his comments and antics. Keep the Show going with Scully (Gillian Anderson) and she can be a guest on and off the show as well.
