The series airs in the US in early 2016.

It’s not a reboot. It’s a revival, so it’s the same cast and continuing the stories on, not starting afresh.
David Duchovny looks so much older in that pic, yet in Aquarious he looks much younger.
You cant boil an egg twice
Doctor Who?
Heroes Reborn? The Muppets?
Dr Who is the same but different each time, a new Dr and assistant changes the tone. I cant imagine how they will handle X files. As a reboot that implies that they are going back to the beginning or even earlier. Surely they aren’t going to be fresh out of school with it all still in front of them? From what I’ve seen it looks like they are starting 70% through the previous incarnation.
Arrested Development?
24?
