I think that it could be the latter. Found something via Tumblr that says a lot: emceecapitalc A couple of years ago, I read an article where Gillian was reflecting on season 10. She said that she initially suggested Chris weave a single story through the six episodes they had to work with rather than try to do a mini season of stand-alone episodes. She suggested this based on her experience with The Fall and the fact that people’s tv-watching habits have changed since 1993. But then, she said, Chris had convinced her that old school X-Files way was what people wanted so they decided to go ahead and do season 10 with four stand-alone episodes book-ended by The Struggles. The critics panned it and CC excused himself by saying that they just didn’t have enough episodes to do a good season when, in reality, they probably could have done a really great 6-episode mini-series had he listened to Gillian and actually had the ability to tell a thorough story. Based on that small little exchange, I theorized that CC treats Gillian as if she is still the same 24-year old girl who is clueless about how television works when in fact, no one affiliated with the show has their finger on the pulse of pop culture and X-Files fans in particular more than Gillian Anderson. In the last couple of years she has engaged with us more via social media and comic cons than anyone else and…she listens. She pays attention. But I also think that maybe up until this year, Gillian was willing to sit back and play that role of clueless 24-year old deferring to Chris’s wisdom because…hey..don’t we all sort of revert to our old roles when we get back around people who knew us way back when we were clueless kids? It’s hard to change that dynamic. Sometimes the only way to do it is to walk away and spend more time with people who will treat you like the grown-ass woman that you are. Really, all I’m saying is this is probably exactly how it went down in Season 11 and once again, Gillian was right.

They got tired. But... I don't know what to say about DD as of late though: I think that says a lot there in my opinion. That DD views it as the writers hijacking CC's show. Really? Isn't supposed to be a bit of a team? And the amount of butt kissing here isn't funny either. For him to say that CC takes a lot of shit from fans may be true, but in a way, a lot of it is earned. You get what you give. Treat others the way that you want to be treated. From what I've seen, fans have not forgotten that he came up with the show. But in some ways, I think that CC forgot that without the fans, the show wouldn't have lasted. Sure he said a bit in MS III. But it still doesn't make up for the way he treated them in s10 and in s11. Let alone at times in the past.

I wonder as well. It makes me sick. I can possibly see why she was no fan of it. It makes me SO angry that this show has been destroyed so thoroughly by a petulant show runner. It also makes me sad. All that has come before has been wrecked. Maybe. And I could see it happening. But damn... all of us got screwed over. We as fans lost William as well. So now no one gets a happy ending.

I'd hate that. And I'd hate her dying after having the kid (the whole St. Rachel's hotel foreshadowing). Honestly though, I don't EVER want a season 12. I just want the show to stay dead.

Hate to ruin it for you... as cheap as those are, I'd need a tv to go with it! XD So it would be over $400 or so overall. So I'm just fine with the DVD's. Hold onto your seats guys. Shots fired. XD https://twitter.com/GillianA/status/977221356893941760 Facepalming Scully and all. She really didn't like it.

That would be a great idea for a fic. As for s12. Hard pass.

If it's the case, it better damn well be on the dvd's as well. Since not everyone has a blu ray player.

I'm sticking with The Truth and IWTB as endings for me.

Same here. Holy cow was that bad. Along with the acting.

Definitely. And it still holds up after all these years. This episode... one and done.

I know. But it made the M and M look like a pervert >_<. Awkward.

I know. They said it would be gorier than Home and it was. But it was anything but memorable. Home was directed well, written well. This... wasn't.

X Files again. Holy cow has this second half of eps been meh. >_<

I hate that new M and M's commercial where the Red one was arrested. WTF is up with that one O_o?

Scully deciding to stay with Mulder and Mulder saying that he'll be with her. Along with an annoying last line that we'll never know. -_- (aka: this ep was a waste of time for me) I wish! S11 has run into issues with it. But it's the XF for ya. Never enough lights lol.

Word. And I don't even drink!

Murphy's son has been cast. http://tvline.com/2018/03/16/murphy-brown-revival-jake-mcdorman-cast-avery-son/ Source: tv line

Holy cow. I just saw that one today on tv. Hate that woman screaming like a banshee over a dumb jacket. What in the actual O_o? Really? Did they have to go there? I'd take his ads over this. ANY DAY.

Ah. Dang. That's horrible what happened to it :(. Probably would have done the same if it happened to my local one.

RIP Toys R' Us. I know it's not a human celebrity. But it's a good friend and it'll be missed. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-toys-r-us-bankruptcy/toys-r-us-closure-leaves-void-for-suppliers-endangers-30000-jobs-idUSKCN1GR0E6 And I certainly don't envy all the people who'll be out of jobs.

Via Fox's site. They should have it up. Just checked and it's there. Under a lock though. So it might be a watch once, but if you want to watch more... have cable. I sincerely doubt it. She really seems to be sticking to her guns. I certainly don't blame her either. The quality is terrible.

Characters talking out stuff and then never finding out the end of it.

Yep. And it's why I'm tired of this. Lmao. Nice one! XD Definitely. It was literally a whole lot of nothing.

Same here. That is beyond tasteless.

Word. I cannot STAND Shay. He makes me want to throw things at my tv.

I love this new Toto song, Struck by Lightning. Only thing is... I don't get some of the lyrics. XD What I hear: You're choking up on Angel Smoke You can't go home, you just keep throwing stones The real lines: The heavens opened up, and an angel spoke: "You can’t go home, they’ll just keep throwing stones."
