Fox Entertainment, the studio that brought "The X-Files" to life after 14 long years, could possibly be planning an 11th season.In a report from Deadline, Dana Walden, the chairman of Fox TV Group, spoke at TCA Monday, saying that she would've wanted to do more in the series' revival. "We would have liked to do more in the first place, but there were limitations. Gillian lives in the U.K. David in New York and Los Angeles. The show shoots in Vancouver. So it's about coordinating a time when they can carve time to be in Vancouver," says Walden.
For now, fans of "The X-Files" can only wait until Fox indeed confirms the show's 11th season.
