| − | Season 4 of '''''The X-Files''''' premiered on October 4, 1996. Like all previous seasons of the show, the fourth season was filmed in and around Vancouver, British Columbia. Season 4 would bring several new elements, both off-screen and on, to the series. New characters and actors were introduced, including [[Laurie Holden]], who would play Mulder's new informant Marita Covarrubias, and [[Chris Owens]], who would play the younger version of 'The Cigarette-Smoking Man'. Both of these actors would make additional appearances throughout the rest of the show. In addition, the background alien conspiracy mythology was expanded considerably with several new elements, including the revelation of the use of altered Africanized Honey Bees (an aspect that would be a paramount plot point for the [[X-Files: Fight the Future, The|1998 feature film]]), while several 'Monster of the Week' episodes would continue touching on dark and light tones alike, and would feature several noted guest actors, including [[Tom Noonan]] and [[Paul McCrane]].

| − | Off-screen, writing duo Glen Morgan and James Wong, following the cancellation of their own series ''[[Space: Above and Beyond]]'', returned to write episodes for the X-Files' fourth season; several actors from their show would also be featured in S4. Many episodes in Season 4 would prove to be considerably remarkable - Among these would be "Home", the first episode in the season written by Morgan and Wong, which would be the first episode in the show to be given an explicit 'viewer discretion advisory' for content; "Unruhe", which marked the change in the show's previous airtime slot from Friday evening to Sunday evening (where the show would continue to air for the remainder of it's original run on FOX); and "Leonard Betts", chosen as the lead-out for ''Super Bowl XXXI'', and, as a result, would subsequently be the highest-rated episode in the entire show's run. The series' previous Friday evening timeslot would subsequently be taken by showrunner Chris Carter's next series, ''[[Millennium]]'', which would also debut in October 1996.

| − | The fourth season of ''The X-Files'' would conclude in May 1997 with 24 episodes. Notable in regard to the season's conclusion would be the upcoming feature film; Specifically that its' main production and filming would begin immediately afterward, during the hiatus between the fourth and [[The X-Files - Season 5|fifth seasons]].
| + | '''''Coneheads''''' is a 1993 comedy film based on the popular ''Saturday Night Live'' characters. After being shot down and stranded on earth, the conical-headed aliens Beldar ([[Dan Aykroyd]]) and his mate, Prymatt (Jane Curtin) find out rescue from their homeworld will be a long time away - Until then, they must survive and blend in with their human neighbors all whilst dodging an ornery INS official ([[Michael McKean]]). The film also stars David Spade and [[Chris Farley]] as well as featuring [[Sinbad]] and [[Adam Sandler]] in early feature acting roles, along with cameos from numerous other ''SNL'' cast members. |

| − | Season 5 of '''''The X-Files''''' premiered on November 2, 1997 - rather late compared to prior seasons - and would conclude in May 1998 with 20 episodes; the second-shortest season in the series. Season 5 would be notable for several reasons. Perhaps the biggest would be that this would be the last season of the show to be filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia - Following S5, the series would move filming and main production to Los Angeles, California. The move was precipitated primarily by lead actor Duchovny, who grew weary of being away from his then-wife [[Téa Leoni]]. Co-star Gillian Anderson and others in the ''X-Files'' crew supported the move (though not as strongly and for other reasons), while others, notably showrunner Chris Carter, not so much. In any event FOX moved the series to LA for its' [[The X-Files - Season 6|sixth season]], and the show would film in LA for the remainder of its' run.

| − | Of additional note is that this would be the first season in which, story-wise, the overarching background mythology would be mostly preplanned, as a result of the upcoming [[X-Files: Fight the Future, The|feature film]], which had actually been mostly filmed and produced prior to the start of the fifth season. Among the new elements revealed in the background mythology would include the addition of the 'Alien Rebels' as well as the near-collapse of Mulder's belief in the extraterrestrial conspiracy. Other more tangential episodes, such as "Travelers" and "Unusual Suspects" would expound on several background elements (the origin of the X-Files unit and the 'The Lone Gunmen', respectively).

| − | The stand-alone 'Monster of the Week' episodes continued in earnest, with several highly acclaimed and regarded episodes in Season 5, many considered the best in the show, such as "Bad Blood" and "The Post-Modern Prometheus", the latter filmed entirely in black-and-white, as a stylistic nod the the classic 1931 film ''Frankenstein''. Other episodes were notable for the writers behind them, such as "Kill Switch", penned by 'Cyberpunk'-pioneering authors William Gibson and Tom Maddox, and "Chinga", co-penned (with Chris Carter) by noted horror writer [[Stephen King]]. On a more technical note, S5 would also be the first in the show to begin filming in a 'widescreen' 16:9 format.

| − | Season 5 of ''The X-Files'' (which, in Chris Carter's original plan, was to be the last season of the show, where it would then segue into a film franchise) would be both the highest rated of the series as well as the highest-rated show for FOX for the 1997-1998 season. As such, FOX found the show too popular and lucrative to nix, and would instead order two additional seasons. Carter and crew subsequently had the challenge of ensuring Season 5 could effectively transition into both the upcoming feature film and the Season 6 of the show (as well as ensuring the film could both stand on its own and also be a bridge between the series' fifth and sixth seasons). Season 5 concluded with its' finale "The End" being the last ''X-Files'' production to be shot in Vancouver until the second feature film ''[[X-Files: I Want To Believe, The|I Want To Believe]]'', roughly a decade later.
