The first teaser for the new "X-Files" reboot offers a quick glimpse at the reboot along with some nostalgia and the assertion that "the truth is in there."
While we've seen a few behind-the-scenes shots from the set of the forthcoming "X-Files" reboot, heard about Gillian Anderson's challenge in "waking up" Scully and even seen David Duchovny tear up over the "fantastic script," we haven't seen much in the way of a preview of the six-episode series due to air on the Fox network in January.
Tuesday, with the release of the first official teaser for the show, that doesn't really change.
Unfortunately, the trailer -- titled "201 Days of the 'X-Files'" -- is pretty much just a montage of scenes from the previous series, which ran from 1993-2002. Instead of teasing what's to come, the trailer is an effort on the part of Fox to get you to go back and watch all the episodes in the original series. If you start today and watch one episode per day, you'll be caught up just in time for the January 24 airing of the new show. This might actually not be such a bad idea. There's a lot of history to remember before you join the agents out in the field again in January.

Half of my X-files box sets are VCR tapes. Cool to watch them on tape too.
Show’s you how old I am, and how old the show is.
Gillian Anderson is hotter today than the day she debuted on X-Files.
I think that I recall hearing the theme from the x-files repeated over and over during an Emmy’s show one year.
I'm up to season 4 on Netflix. I never watched the show so it's all new stuff to me.
Mad Men and The Sopranos
Stay away from the suckage that is Seasons 7,8, and 9.
When Agent Reyes shows up, exit stage left!
You do know that she is a lesbian?
When do they start Mariner?
I guess I do now. I wish I didn’t know.
That’s a shame.
The truth is Anderson and Duchovny hated each other.
Sorry to spoil the whole thing.
Subscribe to Netflix and for $9.99/mo you can watch the shows in order at your leisure. Along with hundreds of other shows and movies.
My only beef with Netflix is that they took SNL out of their rotation. I was going to watch every episode since 1975 but as I was mid-way through 1977, they went ahead and pulled the plug.
Still, Netflix is a great value and a lot cheaper in long run than buying DVD box sets or fussing with setting up the DVR recorders.
Netflix has all the episodes up now too.
I still miss Millennium.
Can’t believe nobody has mentioned The Prisoner, maybe because it was a BBC show:

I might do that.We have a new Smart HD TV now and I saw Netflix on it.
Get it on trial and try it out. That’s what Smart TVs are built for. We have Netflix, Amazon Prime and Roku hooked up to our Smart TV and watched so little of what was coming in on regular TV that we cancelled our cable package and only stream now.
Highly underrated!
before my time, but I watched the series and loved it.
Great show until that damn last episode.
