Comments Off on Take Two: THE X-FILES Season 6 (Part 4)
On Friday, September 10, 1993, Fox debuted THE X-FILES. Now, ahead of the show’s 30th anniversary, Give Me My Remote is looking back at all 11 seasons (and the two feature films) in a new daily series Take Two.
If you’ve read About Last Night, this will be formatted in a similar way: Each episode will get its own subsection/reaction, though in this case there may be slight spoilers or alluding to what comes ahead in the series. In the event a major spoiler is discussed, there will be a warning to be extra safe. Each Take Two will cover approximately 5 episodes and will wrap up the Friday before the show’s 30th birthday.
(I’ll also note how I’m watching the episodes, because some of the streaming platforms have utilized syndicated cuts of this show.)
Today, we’re finishing season 6! Read more

FBI: MOST WANTED’s Ken Girotti on the Show’s ‘Grounded’ Stunt Approach

Comments Off on FBI: MOST WANTED’s Ken Girotti on the Show’s ‘Grounded’ Stunt Approach
It’s rare for network shows—especially dramas—to get Emmy attention in modern times, but one place where they can shine is the stunt category.
In the case of FBI: MOST WANTED, showrunner David Hudgins previously shared with Give Me My Remote that the writers specifically tried to highlight that element of the series.
“It was really fun last season to write towards the action and the stunt sequences, because I knew they could pull them off,” he said. “I mean, we literally had boats, we had explosions. So the action part of that was something [where] we really flexed that muscle.”
With the CBS drama up for Outstanding Stunt Coordination For A Drama Series, Limited Or Anthology Series Or Movie (for stunt coordinator Declan Mulvey) and Outstanding Stunt Performance (for Chad Hessler) in this year’s Emmy race (the winners are tentatively set to be announced in January), FBI: MOST WANTED directing producer Ken Girotti shares how he and the directors helped facilitate the show’s biggest season yet.
