Fox’s midseason slate kicks off on Sunday, Jan. 3. The new line-up will bow to the last NFL season game on January 10 however.
THE X-FILES launches with a two-night event on Sunday, Jan. 24 (following the network’s coverage of football’s NFC Championship game) and Monday, Jan. 25 (in its regular 8 p.m. time-slot). Starting Jan. 25, X-Files will be followed by new drama Lucifer. And Feb. 29 will mark the return of Gotham at 8.
Lucifer stars Tom Ellis as the lead in the series, based on the Vertigo/DC Comics property of the same name. Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman and Len Wiseman are attached to the hourlong drama as exec producers, with Wiseman set to direct the pilot.
