If it's the latter i'd take things slowly as they did with the Doctor Who reboot and introduce things gradually.

They have to attract new casual viewers not just the old fans.

Of course if it's just a continuation then it's already bogged down in however many series and two movies of bollocks, making it pretty much a non-starter for many people.

I loved the Lone Gunmen! but they all died! how can they return? i'm happy to have all the x files back and all the trimmings! i hope it gets good viewing numbers, i honestly just love that story arc and even at this worst i'd still rather watch it than a whole ocean of sh*t on uk TV.

Well, they died onscreen...

The Season 10 comic on the other hand...

Sounds like a reboot scenario.

The Season 10 comics clumsily expand on what happened to them.

I think Carter has said the comics aren't canon.

To be fair, we never actually saw them die - unlike Cancer Man, who's back as well!

Carter did consider the comics canon, he was the 'executive producer' and story supervisor on them. Whether his opinion changed after this new season got the greenlight, who knows ?

There's also an explanation of how CSM could come back.

Finished Wayward Pines tonight. Not bad though i think it went downhill gradually as it went on. Worked much better as a mystery.
I started watching the first series of Whitechapel tonight, really enjoyed it.

The Bill: Spill. A tanker truck overturns in a busy London area, spilling a hazardous chemical onto the streets. As the police, fire and ambulance services deal with the disaster, Sgt Boyden uncovers a dangerous conspiracy of fraud that has led to the incident. This is a cracking double-length episode from 1996 with an epic opening ten minutes on the scene of the accident seemingly all done in one take.
