I'm scared that FOX has talked him into adding a love triangle/two new FBI agents/forced sexual tension because they're trying to cater to a new audience. Here's a thought: maybe 7.7.15 is the date that they admit this was all a hoax and start filming for real. :D

Okay, here's everything: The first part sounds like crap to me. The second episode is obviously Mulder-centric.

I've heard that the person sharing these tidbits has been around since 1999, is reliable, and reported spoilers from IWTB that turned out to be accurate. All of which terrifies me. EDIT: It sounds like they were given access to part of the script from what I've seen, but I don't have a Haven account, so everything I know is secondhand info.

And now FOX is being all mysterious: http://41.media.tumblr.com/1bc5ae0d64b0064b888025b488c11903/tumblr_inline_nqsahiQnl21r3zvox_500.jpg

Ten days ago I would have laughed, but now I believe it :(

Please elaborate on this. I might as well rub salt in the wound. : D

I'm starting to think this revival must be that spoof Gillian Anderson always wanted to make. o_O M.F. Luder--I hope you're right. Or maybe they're trying to make the leaked rumors increasingly absurd so we'll get the hint that it's all lies (please...)

Uhhh.... please tell me this is the equivalent of the Werewolf gag...

Apparently "his" name is Band-aid Nose Man. He reminds me of Slenderman. :D If they end up doing another season, I always thought an episode loosely based off of this could be great... (hint hint if you're reading this, CC).

It looks like the inside of the IWTB house, so I guess Mulder lives there, and Scully lives... with Tad? (I'm sorry guys).

I've always thought it a testament to GA's acting ability that Scully is as sympathetic as she is. GA managed to make Scully's skepticism believable for a long time, but you can only suspend the audience's disbelief for so long. I don't want to see Scully revert to her season 1 self so the writers can cling to the tired "skeptic versus believer" dynamic. EDIT: I hadn't really thought about this before, but maybe FOX is putting pressure on CC to develop the storyline in a specific way? It might not be his fault. http://canadagraphs.weebly.com/the-x-files-revival-blog/the-x-files-are-back-with-a-revival-series-gillian-anderson-david-duchovny-and-joel-mchale-on-set-day-2-of-production Here's some set photos, some of which I've never seen before. http://take-that-mf.tumblr.com/image/122869195973 Very cool! This monster sounds like it could be a contender for the scariest X-Files villain.

I dunno... Mulder's always been a little nutty, so that spoiler doesn't bother me too much. He looks better than he did in IWTB, at least. (Maybe Scully forces him to shave his beard now?)

argh. I never wanted a sex scene in the first place, so if that's his justification for all of this it makes everything so much worse... I'm terrified of what he's done to her character. Scully always gets the short end of the stick in terms of characterization.

Ahh, that's true, though I think it's pretty likely that he's an FBI agent again. Someone said he pointed to the sky while being filmed. Maybe he's talking to the homeless people about aliens? Home Again is supposed to be part of the mytharc, right?

Latest news: Mulder is back with the FBI for sure. Some people on set saw him flash a badge

I was the anon behind "Tad occupied." I think I actually managed to calm the tumblr fandom down with my stupid joke. :D

At least the Tad O'Malley puns and jokes are hilarious. Who even picked that name?

Yep. Reading the IWTB speculation thread has been very therapeutic, since most people's predictions did not come to pass.

"danax6, the person who posted these leaks/spoilers, added some clarifications today: I feel like I need to clear up some misconceptions that I’ve come across throughout the day. Haven’t been able to yet because of a busy day at work. First of all, nowhere is it specified that Scully broke up with Mulder. I realize I worded that wrong, I meant to say that they just broke up, period. No telling who instigated what, but my personal guess would be Scully given the Mulder!Recluse situation. Also, her having had a relationship/thing/whatever with O'Malley is not revealed until the end of the episode. That might explain why they shake hands at the beginning. They want to keep it a ‘surprise’ I guess. (More like a hammer bashed into your skull). And even though O'Malley is looking to rekindle, Scully drops everything and ditches O'Malley to go see Mulder as soon as he calls. I feel like it’s important to include this somehow. In the script they actually use the term ‘Mulder/Scully house’ even though only Mulder lives there, so the map might not have been a plant." God, the spoilers are so...plausible, in some awful, Twilight Zone way, that I can't help but believe they're true. The idea that Scully would lie to Mulder about her involvement with O'Malley is what really kills me. That is simply not true to her character.

http://geekmom7.tumblr.com/post/122775428965/my-theory#notes I like this theory... please let it be true.

I... don't even know what to say. It's crazy, and makes no sense, and sounds like the plotline to some sort of forgotten Sex in the City feature, but who the hell knows at this point.

I wish I still had access to the IWTB speculation thread back on televisionwithoutpity. I want to see what spoilers/rumors were circulating and how many of them ended up being true. EDIT: Just got onto the thread using archive. I'll see what I find :) First IWTB lie I see: Mulder dressed as an FBI agent on set. tsk tsk... I'm having some technical trouble, but from the pages I've read, almost everyone is convinced (by the spoilers/teasers) that M&S are separated at the beginning of IWTB. That sounds awfully similar to what we're predicting here. Oh, and in FTF, apparently CC promised fans that M&S would "lock lips" or something similar. He was referring to the CPR. And now I'm cracking up. Because of something Frank Spotnitz said, some posters thought there would be a major plot twist in IWTB similar to the plot twist in The Sixth Sense. This "plot twist" was the X-Files theme playing as the screen zoomed in on Bush. EDIT: http://perplexistan.tumblr.com/post/122750337836/a-few-more-xf-revival-spoilers-leaks WTF? I am speechless. That sort of melodrama does not belong on this show. And it's complete assassination of Scully's character.

I agree with you. Many of these rumors and leaked images conflict with each other.

OK, the latest tumblr "rumors" from "reliable sources" are: 1) Scully's mom might return in the second episode 2) Scully and Mulder are definitely broken up in the first episode All I can say is that I hope the first one is true and the second one isn't.

I think he realizes to some extent that this is his last chance, even if he's not willing to admit it publicly. I would think the awful reception of IWTB humbled him somewhat as well. I'm worried about the overt symbolism too, but I probably won't even notice when the episode actually airs because I'll be so focused on everything else.
