There's an article at scifi.com in which James Pickens, who plays Kersh talks about becoming an X-Files regular. Thanks CJ for sending that in! And, thanks to Zap2it's TV Guide Listings still thinking NIHT airs Nov 4, I've added the summary of the episode that accompanies the listing to the Season 9 Episode Guide. And, don't forget to set your clocks back an hour tonight for Daylight Savings!

Thursday October 25, 2001

New promo pic:
There's a new Annabeth Gish/Robert Patrick promo pic (Large Version); it's archived on the S9 Cast Promo page. Thanks Khristine! That's all I've got for today! Happy Thursday!

Wednesday October 24, 2001

Revised Schedule / New episode name:
The Official Site updated the episode schedule which is in the right-hand upcoming events column and on the episode schedule page. And, the OS also posted that the title for 9x07 is "John Doe".

Lots and lots of auctions:
foxauctionforamerica.org has been set up to help raise money for the victims of September 11. One of the items that will be auctioned off is "The official ``X-Files'' pinball machine owned by series producer, Vince Gilligan, autographed by all cast members". It's not up for auction yet, but keep checking! Thanks SLS for the heads-up. And, David Duchovny designed a cell phone, which is up for auction for charity at Yahoo!.

Closure screen captures:
It's been awhile since I've done any screen captures! There are lots of screen captures from Season 7's Closure! I love 1989 Mulder! Have a great day everyone!

Premiere Trailer #3 & #4 (recap):
CJ from Gillian and David: The Archives caught the new 15 sec Lucy Lawless promo and provided a copy of it for us! You can download Real Media and MPEG clips here! And, I fixed the audio for the 3rd trailer which is available on the same page :)

Articles / Halloween fun :):
This month's issue of Cinescape (November 2001) has 3 articles on The X-Files. I transcribed two of them (the third is about X-Files on DVD). My favourite is the article about the 5 most scariest episodes. It reminds me of the poll we did last summer :) We even have the same #1 scariest episode: Home. And, Kate sent in a short article about David Duchovny and Vancouver. And, lastly, if anyone hasn't checked out The X-Files Pumpkin Patterns that Amy and Erin put up - GO!! - they're so cool!

Sunday October 21, 2001: Updated 8pm PST

Premiere Trailer #4!:
Well, I didn't catch the new trailer (15 sec Lucy Lawless trailer), but CJ from Gillian and David: The Archives did and was awesome enough to provide a copy for Frenzy! You can download Real Media and MPEG clips here! Thanks CJ (and kristi for offering her clip again!!)! Oh, and as Cherie noticed, there is no sound for the 3rd trailer. I'm working on getting that fixed :)

New Promo Pic / Screen Captures / Wallpaper:
Thanks to Khristine we have a new Gillian Anderson/Scully promo pic (large version). Look! She's wearing the cross! I made a few screen captures of Lucy Lawless' interview on ET Friday. And, finally be sure to check out the new wallpapers at the Official Site!

Saturday October 20, 2001

Season 9 Premiere Date Change:
The Official Site announced that the Season 9 Premiere has moved from November 4 to November 11. I'm not sure what will happen to the air dates for the other episodes or if Global (Canada) will also delay the premiere.

Third Trailer!:
Kvba sent along the third version of the Season 9 premiere trailer, which you can download here and I made some screen captures from the clip which are here! Thanks Kvba!

Lucy Lawless on ET (Recap):
Lucy Lawless' Entertainment Tonight interview is up here at Frenzy! Still working on the screen captures :)

Friday October 19, 2001: TGIF!! Updated 8pm PST

Lucy Lawless on ET:
Lucy Lawless' Entertainment Tonight interview is up here at Frenzy! I'm heading out for the evening, so I'll make some screen captures for tomorrow's update :)

Another new promo pic!:
What we do without Khristine?!? She posted (I guess I should say Vered posted!) a new GA/AG/RP promo pic (large version)! It's been archived in the S9 Cast Gallery. Thanks Khristine and Vered!

Possible Premiere Delay / Fan Mail:
The bad news! The Season 9 opener, scheduled for November 4, may be delayed if the World Series goes to a 7th game. Apparently, that happens about 20% of the time, so it's a small chance. And, the Official Site posted that they will no longer be accepting fan mail via snail mail (read more). Speaking of fan mail (yeah, this is a little off-topic)... a friend (Hi Amy aka Aqua!) and I wrote our first and only piece of fan mail to Stephen Snedden (aka Jimmy on The Lone Gunmen) this summer and this week I received this autographed picture (and some other goodies!) in the mail. Love that guy!

Thursday October 18, 2001: Late afternoon update

Lucy Lawless on ET:
VCR Alert! Lucy Lawless will be on Entertainment Tonight tomorrow. There was a preview tonight, which you can download here (400kB zipped Real Media). Thanks Gertie!

Wednesday October 17, 2001

More NIHT/Season 9 Promo Pics! :
Woo hoo! It's promo picture season! Again, thanks to Khristine there are new Nothing Important Happened Today promo pics and this Annabeth promo pic (large version) to the Season 9 Cast Image Archive (and I fixed all the broken links in the archive)! Thanks Khristine!

Behind-The-Scenes Video Clip :
I've added a new behind-the-scenes video clip from the 'Inside The X-Files' special from 1998. Chris Carter, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson talk about Mulder and Scully's relationship. It's interesting to watch after the outcome of Season 8 and we get to hear Chris Carter say "Scully loves Mulder and Mulder loves Scully". Hey, I'm a shipper :) And, one last note - my e-mail address has changed. It's xfmegan@shaw.ca now. My @home e-mail still works, but I'm not sure for how long. Have a great Wednesday everyone!

Monday October 15, 2001

Season 9 Promo Pics! :
NIHTThanks to *the* Khristine I've added larger versions (I love the large images!!) and some new Season 9 cast promos and Nothing Important Happened Today promo pics! Yeah!


Gillian Anderson Article:
There was a short blurb in this weekend's USA Weekend about her relationship with David Duchovny, among other things (thanks Sherri, mari & Gertie). And off-topic, I've been having e-mail issues, which I finally sorted out (after 5 days of not receiving any e-mail!), so I'll be getting back to everyone ASAP :)

Sunday October 14, 2001

New Article / More Images:
There's a Lucy Lawless article about her role on the X-Files at scifi.com - NIHT *spoiler* warning! And, I added 4 more new/old scans to the image gallery. Have a great Sunday - and don't forget that Empedocles is on Global (Canada) tonight!

Saturday October 13, 2001

Happy Birthday! / Image Gallery Re-organized:
10/13!! Par-tay! Happy 45th birthday to Chris Carter and 40th birthday to Mulder :) And, I've re-organized the Image Gallery, which should make it easier for me to archive images (and maybe easier to browse through the images!). I got my hands on some new/old magazines, so there are 4 new scans in image gallery!

More Wallpapers / KronerXF.net:
The Official Site is so awesome! They've added 2 more Season 9 wallpapers!! And, shippers should check out Kroner, KS, which has just been updated with some shippy goodies! Have a great Saturday everyone!

And, 2 other Season 9 promo pics (originally posted at a great French X-Files site, lvei.net) - Shannon McMahon (Lucy Lawless) and McMahon and Doggett.

Gillian on ET / Evolution DVD:
Gillian on ETI caught a short clip of Gillian Anderson on Entertainment Tonight last night. Check out the (very short!) video clip and screen captures. GAWS has a MPEG clip of the video clip if you can't download RealMedia :) Evolution DVD And, the Evolution DVD is being released December 26, 2001 (Merry Christmas!).

And, the very talented Vered of ::xperimentation:: made some rockin' Season 9 wallpapers (800x600), which she's allowed us to feature here: Scully and the Season 9 Gang! Thanks Vered!

X-Files Schedule:
First off, someone asked me what happened to X-Files on FX. I don't have FX, but according to FX Schedule, X-Files has not been cancelled, but has moved to a different time slot - 1am PT/ 4am ET! Second, good news for Canadian viewers! Global is airing Season 8 re-runs (Sunday night, 9pm PT/ET): Oct 14 - Empedocles, Oct 21 - Alone.
