During the airing of season eight, Carter and The X-Files production team created and aired a spinoff entitled The Lone Gunmen.ĭana Scully meets John Doggett, the leader of an FBI taskforce organized to conduct a search for Fox Mulder. Series creator Chris Carter believed that the series could continue for another ten years with new leads, and the opening credits were accordingly redesigned in both seasons eight and nine. "This Is Not Happening" marked the first appearance of Annabeth Gish as Monica Reyes, who would become a main character in season 9 as Doggett's new partner in the X-Files office. Duchovny appeared for only twelve episodes in season eight, and reduced his time on The X-Files dramatically in season 9. Duchovny was initially replaced by Robert Patrick who played new central character John Doggett. Season eight was received well by critics but got more mixed reviews by fans and viewers, since David Duchovny elected not to return as a main character. The season explores various themes such as life, death, and belief. This arc would continue, and end, with the next season. The story arc for the search of Mulder continues until the second half of the season, when a new arc about Dana Scully's pregnancy is formed. Season eight took place after Fox Mulder's alien abduction in the seventh season.
