I'd be fine with people calling him the "George Lucas" of TV, loved the SW prequels more than Disney's entries. Also I disagree about the latest season of the X-Files, it was a much better revival than the two 24 attempts, and better than X-Files seasons 8 and 9. See, when Mulder and Scully left, so did I. I didn't watch much of 8 or 9. I didn't watch any of 24. The three episodes that Chris Carter wrote were EASILY the worst episodes of the season. Babylon might have been the worst of the series. Both of the My Struggle 1 & 2 were the worst bookends of any season I saw of the Xfiles. He has been the problem of the revival, and I hope they keep him away. I want to see more Wong or Morgan episodes. Well you're missing out as 8 & 9 had great episodes, sure it wasn't Mulder n' Scully's show but the new characters were really well written. As for the revival, one thing to understand is getting the band back together after many, many years is tough, and both Duchovny/Anderson admitted that and I'm sure CC felt similar. As for 24, if you were to watch one of the "Revivals" watch Legacy because Live Another Day had WAY to much of Sutherlands story without giving new characters much to work with.

Loved seasons 1-5, but for me, the show went steadily downhill after Season 5 (and don't get me started about the finale), and I didn't even bother with the second feature film or the recent season.
But I'm happy for those still on board.

I'm glad he created the show, it's a great show, but he's done it as much harm as he has good.

That is why I made the comparison to Lucas. I appreciate Lucas for what he created. But the prequels, IMO, were terrible. I feel the same about Carter. He just needs to step back and let Morgan(s) or Wong become the Kathleen Kennedy of X-Files.

Heroes was a great show and he let it go down the crapper and then ruined it again when it was revived.

I wasn't a fan of the 'first return', so I hope they do better this time.
